A new accident repair centre has opened in Dundee, with the firm’s Perth bodyshop closing.
FMG Repair Services has opened in part of the former Ravensby Glass building in Fowler Road.
The firm, which operates nationwide, said the new site will strengthen repair capacity throughout Tayside and Fife.
Staff from its bodyshop in Strathtay Road, Perth, have transferred to Dundee.
Ravensby Glass has split its former premises into smaller units.
