Cars with a story

Classic and vintage cars are not like everyday vehicles. They have their own character and their own needs, and their owners tend to care a great deal about how they are looked after.

We are happy to look after them. The photos on this site are real customer vehicles at our Sydenham workshop, including a Morgan Aero coupe, two Packards, a Chevrolet Impala, a Buick Riviera, a VW Kombi and a wooden bodied vintage special.

The same care for everything

Whether it is a classic or a modern daily driver, the approach is the same. We listen, we check the vehicle properly, and we explain what we find in plain language. Customers describe us as friendly, honest and easy to deal with, and that is how we like to work with every car.

Our customers bring in everything from pre-war tourers to modern supercars, and the common thread is that the owner wants the job done properly by people who are straight with them.

Services that suit classic and vintage cars include WOF and check-ups, servicing and maintenance, tune-ups, diagnostics and general repairs. If you are not sure where to start, call and tell us about the car.
