Classics

Repairs and rebuilds of classic sports and saloon cars...

Mercedes

We have a great deal of expertise in classic Mercedes and we usually have at least three being worked on at any one time.

Vintage and PV

Sports, racing and saloons from the twenties through to late pre war...

Triumphs

We have lost count of how many Triumph TRs we have rebuilt over the last 20 years. We have also rebuilt many Spitfires and GT models...

Workshops

In 2015 we moved to modern purpose built workshops. At any time our experienced staff can be working on up to 20 cars doing jobs from complete rebuilds to repairs and routine seasonal servicing...

Engines

Over the years we have rebuilt hundreds of engines. We have extensive expertise in engines dating from the turn of the century although we draw the line at modern supercars as we do not have the necessary diagnostic equipment for them. If in doubt please ask.

Servicing and Tuning

An annual service, often accompanied by an MOT test, is essential for keeping your classic car in top condition. Our servicing is traditional and thorough. We use the original service specification to ensure that, for example, all grease nipples are re-greased, drum brakes are cleaned and adjusted properly, points-and-condenser ignition system are adjusted correctly and multiple carburettors are rebalanced correctly.

Our servicing is traditional and thorough. We use the original service specification to ensure that, for example, all grease nipples are re-greased, drum brakes are cleaned and adjusted properly, points-and-condenser ignition system are adjusted correctly and multiple carburettors are rebalanced correctly. If your classic has only done a few hundred miles in the preceding year, we can carry out a 'light' service where, for example, the spark plugs are just cleaned & re-gapped rather than renewed etc. This saves unnecessary expense. Even if your classic is exempt from having an MOT test, it's a good idea to have one anyway. This gives you documentary proof that it was in good sound roadworthy condition at the time of the test.

Why would you need this? Well, should an accident befall your precious car, insurance companies will always inspect the roadworthiness of it. This is a standard procedure that they do even if the accident wasn't your fault. If defects are found, the insurer may well use them to claim that you have voided the terms of your insurance policy and they won't be paying for the repairs.
