Wortley Auto Service

From all of us at Wortley Auto Service, we want to wish each and every one of you a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy 2026.

Congratulations to our friends over at Toboggan brewing on your award. Thanks for helping to keep downtown London a great destination.

It’s Small Business Week across Canada! We’re spotlighting our 2025 Business Excellence Award nominees. Join us each day as we unveil a new nominee and share their story. Today, we’re raising a glass to Toboggan Brewing Co. and Mike Smith! Their name isn’t just a fun nod to Canadiana, it’s a tip of the toque to London’s past. In the late 1800s, our city was a tobogganing hotspot, with ramps stretching across the Forest City including one near where Toboggan stands today! Carrying on that same spirit of fun and community, Toboggan has become a downtown favourite for great food, craft beer, and live events that bring people together. Cheers to Mike and the Toboggan team for keeping London’s community spirit alive, one pint at a time! 🍺 Video by Nathan Bedard Photography

This lovely little MGA has spent a few months with us having a complete mechanical rebuild. This car was purchased by the current owners in the early 1960s as a late model used car. Life gets busy and cars sometimes get parked and sidelined. That happened to this car over 30 years ago. Our veteran technician Dan spent much of this summer repairing the wiring, fuel, brake, suspension systems and rebuilding the engine in this little gem. We are really happy with how it runs and works now and hope our clients get much enjoyment out of the fall driving season.

We’ve had the pleasure of repairing this 1979 GMC pickup this year for our customer Alex. This is a really neat truck as it’s a survivor that’s lived in 46+ years in Ontario. On the surface it didn’t seem to be in terrible condition but years of salt and hard work left lots of hidden rust. The pictures give a glimpse into the level of work that went into repairing this old gem and ensuring it will give many more years of service. We are always happy to save another squarebody from the ravages of time!
