Stanways Autobodies is a Hyundai manufacturer approved bodyshop in Lytham St Annes, approved since December 2025. Manufacturer approval means repairs follow Hyundai's own methods, equipment and parts requirements, so the vehicle warranty is preserved. We are an independent, family run bodyshop working to BS10125 with zero non-conformances in 2024, 2025 and 2026, covering Lancashire and the Fylde Coast.
Hyundai manufacturer approved December 2025. The standard your warranty needs, the people who treat your Hyundai like it’s their own.
Hyundai don’t hand approval out lightly. To carry their badge, a bodyshop has to prove its facility, its equipment, its training, its parts supply chain and its repair processes meet the standard Hyundai specifies for every single one of their models, from the i10 to the IONIQ 5 to the new bonded-aluminium platforms.
We were awarded approval in December 2025 after a comprehensive audit of our purpose-built 2024 facility. Every Hyundai that comes through our workshop is repaired exactly as the manufacturer would in their own dealer network.
We’ve since passed our 2026 BS10125 audit with zero non-conformances for the third year running. Structural aluminium repair is now within our audited scope, which covers the bonded-aluminium platforms Hyundai now builds.
Hyundai's warranty can exclude accident damage, improper repair, and damage attributable to the way a repair was carried out. So the methods and parts used at a non-approved bodyshop can affect the cover you still have on structural, paint and safety systems. That is a financial risk most drivers are not aware of when an insurer recommends a preferred repairer.
A Hyundai Approved Accident Repair Centre follows Hyundai repair methods and genuine parts requirements, which helps protect your vehicle's safety systems, structural integrity and applicable warranty cover.
From the smallest city cars to the latest electric platforms, we’re equipped for every Hyundai model on the road.
Hyundai owners on the Fylde Coast haven’t always had a manufacturer-approved option close by. With Stanways now approved, you don’t need to send your car to a dealer-tied bodyshop in Preston or Manchester, and you can ask your insurer for Stanways by name. We’re independent, family-owned, and Hyundai approved.
Insurer pressure? Some insurers will point you towards their own network. You can ask for your Hyundai to be repaired here instead. Your policy terms may affect your excess or courtesy car, so we will check the position with your insurer before work starts and handle the rest directly.
