First open and owned by Mike Baldwin, it took his name - MVB Motors, and retained it when Don Brennan bought it in April 1996. However, Don had paid over the odds for a business that needed a lot of recapitalisation, and in July 1996 the business folded. Don and Josie lost the £43,000 they had bought it for, plus all the machinery they had replaced.
In August 1996, former workers Kevin Webster & Tony Horrocks
bought the garage from the bank for £25,000. and re-opened
it as 'Coronation Street Garage'.
