    Future bookings

    For the first time in 15 years I have taken the decision to not take in any further work for the foreseeable future. Our waiting list has now grown to a full year, the longest it has ever been, that is if you booked an engine conversion with us yesterday it would be September 2018 at the earliest before we could do it!

    It seems we are a victim of our own success, and the phone never stops ringing with enquiries or people needing help with home builds etc so I haven't taken this decision lightly.

    All currently booked in cars will be worked on until completion, but we won't be accepting any further bookings until the current waiting list is back to an acceptable level, quite possibly early 2019.

    Thanks Paul.

    Wow... great stuff on one hand, difficult on another. Sounds like the solution is 2 more ramps and the shed next to you!!!

    Maybe you need to work faster?

    Retirement, I wish! No it's just a break from taking in more work so we can catch up on the huge waiting list.

    At the start of 2019 I will assess the situation and make a further decision.

    damn and i just messaged you for information on waiting times etc.... however a year waiting suits me quite well, gives me time to sort my interior and fit the brakes i have on order. (they wont arrive till mid october)Ill wait for your response to my e mail and keep my fingers crossed.

    Good to see you are so popular. says a lot for your business.
