Our workshop manager Danny has been working professionally on classic cars for over 15 years, his commitment to quality is demonstrated daily. Our team holds extensive experience with a range of classic cars from the 1950s to the 1980s but we are always happy to discuss work on older or more modern classics.
We want to get to know you and your car, believing that great servicing is the key to enjoying your vehicle with confidence. Although we have standard service plans, every car is different and each owner's needs vary. We will work with you to create a clear service plan based on your car's condition, your usage of the vehicle, and can arrange regular vehicle inspections to ensure optimal performance.
At Historic Motorworks, we believe that thorough vehicle inspections are essential before embarking on projects, large or small. This approach provides you with clarity regarding the work required. Our skilled technicians can perform either a standard or advanced vehicle inspection, walking you through the details so you can prioritise the work you'd like us to undertake.
If you are looking to undertake a large project, buy a car or have already purchased one.
We will carry out a detailed vehicle inspection. Our standalone inspections can take over five hours and provide you with a clear picture of your vehicle's current condition.
This allows you to make informed decisions on the work you would like us to complete and saves time later in the project process.
