Our figure of 91% compares very well with the UK national average pass rate of just 73.9% for the same period…so it takes a pretty special performance to stand out even from that high score.
Step forward Alberto Longalong and Samuel Malsan from MC Truck and Bus Ltd’s Thurrock workshop, who arrived from the Philippines in 2005. Between the two of them, they’ve prepared and completed 100 MOT inspections this year with a remarkable 100% first-time pass rate.
“They’ve worked very hard and they’re good service Technicians,” says Thurrock’s General Manager, Steve Coveney. “Their attitude and work ethic is great – they’ll do anything you give them – and they’re very efficient, too. What counts on these MOT passes, though, is their attention to detail, which is very, very good indeed!”
Coming up behind them is another generation of Technicians that looks equally promising. Steve has at least three in the workshop with 100% records who have only just completed their apprenticeships – and one who’s still in his third year!
With talent like that, the future looks more than passable for Thurrock, MC Truck and Bus and indeed, the whole network!
