Who we are
About Millington Autolec Services
Four decades of automotive electrical expertise, serving Shropshire and beyond.
Built on experience, not just equipment
Millington Autolec Services was founded by Darren Millington, who has spent over 40 years working in the automotive electrical trade. What started as a passion for understanding how vehicles work has grown into one of Shropshire's most trusted independent auto electrical specialists.
Unlike a general garage that handles everything from tyres to exhausts, we focus exclusively on auto electrics, diagnostics, and specialist services. That focus means deeper knowledge, better equipment, and faster, more accurate results for our customers.
We work on everything from everyday family cars to commercial vans, HGVs, and agricultural machinery — and we treat every job with the same level of care and honesty, whether it's a simple key replacement or a complex fault diagnosis.
"I've always believed that if you invest in the right tools and take the time to properly understand a fault, you'll get the right answer — and the customer won't end up paying for parts they don't need."

Why customers choose us
We're not the biggest garage in Shropshire — but we might be the most thorough.
Own-brand specialist tools
We invest in our own professional diagnostic and programming equipment — the same level of tooling used by main dealers — so we can tackle jobs that general garages simply cannot.
40+ years of experience
Darren has spent over four decades working in automotive electrics. That depth of knowledge means faster, more accurate diagnosis and fewer unnecessary parts replacements.
Honest, transparent service
We tell you exactly what is wrong, what it will cost, and whether it is worth fixing. No upselling, no unnecessary work, no surprises on the invoice.
All vehicles covered
From family hatchbacks to HGVs and agricultural machinery — if it has an engine and electronics, we can diagnose and repair it. Fleet and commercial customers are always welcome.
