Car trouble during your holiday? Or simply ready for a new set of wheels? Then you want someone who not only knows their stuff but also acts quickly. Fortunately, on Texel, you don't have to look far. Garage Dros in De Cocksdorp has been the go-to address for everything automotive since 1963. And whether you drive a Renault or something else entirely: you are more than welcome.
More than just a Renault and Dacia dealer
For decades, Garage Dros has been the specialist on Texel for Renault, and since 2006, for Dacia too. However, they have always welcomed other makes and models as well. In 2023, they joined Vakgarage — a national network of over 350 garages. This means their service is more comprehensive than ever. But don't worry: Garage Dros remains an official Renault and Dacia dealer.
The mechanics at Garage Dros are not only highly skilled but also up-to-date with the latest technology. They work with modern diagnostic equipment, follow regular training courses, and think along with you. Whether it is an MOT (APK), a major service, an electric vehicle, or just a noise that makes you think 'that doesn't sound right' – they will fix it.
Even if you haven't found your dream car yet
It’s not just maintenance they excel at. Those looking for a new or used car will find expert guidance at Garage Dros. In fact, if your dream car isn't currently in the showroom, they will search for it on your behalf – even looking across the border.
Take Bart van Tongeren from De Krim. He now drives an electric BMW iX3, located and collected in Southern Germany by Edwin van den Heuvel of Garage Dros. Bart: “The car is spacious, comfortable, and drives perfectly. Charging it with our own solar power and then cruising comfortably with the music on and the roof open is wonderful! Edwin found this brand-new model for me in Southern Germany and personally collected and imported it.”
Or Kees Moormann from Slagerij Moormann & De Boer, who bought his Renault Espace at Dros: “Every journey is a joy. And I’ve been coming here for years – their service is always personal and pleasant.” In the meantime, Kees has also become the proud owner of a Renault 5.
Texel service with an ANWB seal of approval
Broken down on Texel? There is a good chance Garage Dros will come to your rescue, as they are an official ANWB Partner Company. Whether you are on holiday or live here, you can count on swift assistance and mechanics who know exactly what they are doing.
Even loyal customers from the very beginning still choose Garage Dros. De Oranjerie has been a customer since the 1980s and now drives an electric Renault Kangoo. Chera: “The accessibility of their service was the deciding factor for us.” Anton: “The car drives wonderfully and looks great too.”
Always welcome – with or without an appointment
Whatever your reason – maintenance, advice, imports, a new car, or simply because a warning light has appeared and you have no idea why – you are welcome at Garage Dros. They take their time, explain what they are doing, and ensure you can get back on the road safely.
Providing quality service since 1963.
