About PK Automotive
Started by the man who trained the technicians
An independent Lincoln garage, founded in 2006, that other garages and main dealers turn to when they are stuck.
Paul’s story
From the training room to the workshop floor
Before PK, Paul Killingsworth travelled for the major manufacturers, teaching technicians for the Volkswagen Audi Group in the UK and Germany.
He also taught as a technical instructor for Renault, Mazda and Bentley, and for the AA and RAC.
He started PK Automotive Solutions in 2006 to put that knowledge to work. Today the business handles everything from routine servicing to faults that have defeated main dealers, with a purpose-built tuning centre, PK Motorsport, alongside.
