About Autosessive
Autosessive is a division of CES (UK) Ltd, one of the largest car parts distributors in the UK. Autosessive is who we are and what we are, a company that is enthusiastic and obsessed with providing you with the parts to maintain, repair, service and shine your car. This site is designed, run and managed by people who appreciate the science and glory of cars, vans, mopeds, motorbikes and anything with wheels and an engine.
About CES (UK) Ltd
CES (UK) Ltd was set up in 1984 by Howard Warren and Charles Colton. Both Chairmen are obsessed about anything to do with cars and motor racing. Equally, they both have a passion for excellence. CES (UK) evolved as a result of these interests, aiming to offer the service level of a national company to the local garages in and around Chester.
Back in the 1980's the explosion in exhaust part numbers meant that the stock holding requirement for any garage became overwhelming and a national distributor was needed. CES was there to fulfil the role. For many years now we have supplied Britain's widest stock range of exhausts & catalysts for national distribution.
CES (UK) quickly expanded due to our mission to never say 'No'. This means we have to have the best technical expertise in the business, in order to source our vast stock of exhausts and catalysts. Over the years we have introduced a full range of car parts, garage equipment & training, providing automotive solutions for today and anticipating those of tomorrow.
We currently have 18 branches throughout the North West, North Wales, Midlands and the Isle of Man delivering a complete range 
of car parts on our vans to our local customer base.
Over the last 25 years we have thrice been awarded Distributor of the year by the prestigious Automotive Distributor Federation. Most recently, at the 2009 ADF Annual Awards, we won two of the top categories. CES were awarded the much coveted Distributor of Excellence award. On top of that accolade, CES put in an amazing performance and scooped all three awards in the new category of UK Parts Advisor of the Year.
In 2010 CES went Autosessive, taking our passion, our knowledge and a sample of our vast product range online. The Autosessive range is designed for those of us who are a little obsessed about cars, whether we fix them for a living or polish and tinker at the weekend. Autosessive offers a comprehensive range of accessories; tools and consumables as well as giving you access to our car parts experts.
Our Philosophy
There are thousands of car related products you can buy online, right now that are easy to specify. We only list products that this applies to, we don’t list products where there are lots of choice – there might be a model change, we may need more technical info, your car may be an import, a superb performance vehicle or a classic dream. We have all of these products in our warehouse but we need to talk to you! We are Autosessive. We have to get your car parts correctly specified, lovingly wrapped, picked and despatched to our fellow autosessive’s everywhere. A listing on a website won't do that, a person will!
What is an autosessive?
An Autosessive is a car enthusiast with an unusual preoccupation with their car. They want to spend time with their car, want to drive it, want to tinker with their car, want to bathe the car, want to love it, want to make it look as good as possible, and run as well as it can go. There is not one kind of Autosessive person; they either want to keep the car exactly original, modify and tweak it in some fashion or just simply drive it. In either case they spend as much available time as they can on their car.
An Autosessive's enthusiasm means they want to spend time with other that share this fixation, they want to swap stories, share photographs, and join clubs with people with similar cars. They take pride in showing their car, at car shows, to fellow Autosessive's, to the neighbor and any other opportunity, such as bus queues. We must not forget the wonderful moment that involves slow moving traffic past a reflective shop window.
So a true Autosessive is someone who can't spend enough time with their car. They get genuinely excited by anything to do with cars. They take pleasure from cleaning and detailing their car - something that some others may never truly understand.
The car is so much more to an Autosessive. It's their passion. It makes them smile; providing excitement, great times and long lasting memories. Nothing quite beats those quality moments spent together in the garage.
CES (UK), we are autosessive!
