Engineering Through Experience

When he's not in the workshop, Jonny is testing his own bespoke builds at circuits like Cadwell Park and Donington Park. That time on track feeds straight back into every upgrade and service we carry out.

Curated Acquisitions

We don't just look after high-performance cars, we sell them too. Every car we sell is workshop-led and geometry-verified, so it's as sound mechanically as it looks.

What Owners Say

  • “After having had a full geometry done on my S3 Exige, it has transformed my car on both road and track. So far the best money I have spent on my car.”

    Daniel T.S3 Exige owner
  • “Jonny was a joy to deal with he kept me fully informed with messages and photos of the whole process of stripping and removing the gearbox from my Evora… Fantastic service, knowledgeable, friendly, competitive.”

    Mark T.Evora owner
  • “Outstanding!! I would highly recommend Jonny to anyone who owns a Lotus (whether a novice or veteran). Incredible knowledge, always happy to answer any questions, shows you what is wrong and the reasons why.”

    Alex G.Lotus owner
  • “I recently bought a car from them, and they did a top job. Very knowledgable and helpful guy. Really impressed with the hard work he put in getting the car prepped for sale.”
