Helping to restore a modern classic - BMW E30

The first thought that will cross some people’s mind is ‘Why do all that work on an old car’. It is quite simple – because the owner loves it!

Sanding the cat? Jaguar XK8 Roadster

Recently aquired by it’s new owner, this stunning Pacific Blue 2004 Jaguar XK8 Convertible had rarely been driven, having only covered some 15000 miles since new. However, in this time nearly every panel had recieved a number of superficial but very obvious scratches that would need more than just polishing to remove.

After spending the last couple of years being passed from one workshop to another having various parts worked upon, this rare and beautiful Marcos Mantula, which started life as the 1991 British Motorshow display car, was desperate for some TLC.

Swissvax Divine for another Lotus Carlton (Type 104)

This S2000 is the owner’s absolute pride and joy, and it’s always kept immaculate but after chatting one day about this car, I explained to her how it could look even better than it did.

Swissvax Best of Show for a unique Bentley

Finished car

Warning, very brightly coloured Lotus Exige S!

A daily driven example, this supercharged S2 Exige is in the rare and very distinctive Krypton Green colour. Used as it should be, it also does it’s fair share of track miles too, all in the loving hands of its owners James & Nikki.

A Volvo? Detailing is not just for supercars!

Half polished bonnet

This detail actually started as a ‘I bet you can’t do anything with that’ statement and ended up as 2 long days spent proving a point. The point was however, well and truly proven!

For those that watch Top Gear (which will be most people I imagine), this is the Series 2 Lotus Exige that was driven around the Dunsfold test track by Jeremy Clarkson whilst being chased by an Apache Helicopter.

Iconic Lotus Carlton prepared for a show

Detailing cars to make them look their very best is always enjoyable, regardless of what’s being worked upon. But when a truly rare and iconic car comes along, it really is a treat to be savoured. The Lotus Carlton is one such example.

Shocking Aston Martin dealer preparation

A trip to Wimbledon for this detail, a one week old Vantage Roadster that the client knew could be improved upon – a recommendation from another client, he booked us in to sort it out.

King of the 911's

For the last two years this car has been used almost exclusively for track days – nearly 14000 miles worth of them! The car has stood up to this amazingly well, a real testiment to the Porsche build quality.
