About Caithness Motor Company
Caithness Motor Company is Thurso's established vehicle repair and MOT centre. As the major town in the far north, Thurso is the natural service hub for the top of Scotland, and this garage is the most capable facility in the region. With reasonable opening hours and parts availability, it can handle most common motorhome issues. Thurso is also where the Orkney ferry departs from — many NC500 travellers extend their trip to the islands.

Breakdown Advice
⚠️ Remote Area Advice: Mobile phone signal is patchy or non-existent across much of the NC500. Before you set off, save your breakdown insurance number and this garage's number offline. Consider joining the AA, RAC or Green Flag — their Highland coverage includes recovery from very remote areas. Always carry a basic tyre repair kit and know how to change a tyre.
