Automotive property is unusually varied: glass showrooms, workshop bays, MOT lanes, valeting, parts storage, forecourts and vehicle compounds, often on one site. Each is valued and charged differently, which is exactly where errors hide.
Display space, workshop bays and storage carry different values. Misallocation between them moves the bill.
External display and storage areas drive both rating and drainage charges. Measured extents settle what is chargeable.
Charging infrastructure, reconfigured bays and new-format sites change the record. Most entries have not caught up.
Dealer groups get one method across the network, with findings comparable site to site. Independents get the same measured rigour on a single premises, on the same no reduction, no fee basis where the review qualifies.
