Dave's Garage

23/01/2026

As many of our customers know Dave was an avid Drag Racer.
When we came to France he brought his beautiful Brogie Roadster, but after life events got in the way, he made the heart breaking decision that he could race no more.
On taking the Brogie back to the UK, he found an ad for a 70s Chevy Camaro and convinced me THAT ITS A GOOD IDEA 🤣 to buy it.
So this Camaro had been fully restored but the interior and many other bits had been removed, so in principle it was an easy fix.
But no Dave has other ideas, it's not restored good enough so he has to do it better.
Most of the car is in boxes which Dave is spending many a weekend taking each and every piece out, cleaning/repairing/polishing and making sure it's gleaming.
Apparently the engine is not good enough so that's been pulled out and will have a complete refresh and new paint.
The body work is not good enough so that's having a Dave makeover (even the bits you can't see)
This is what happens when you marry a ocd car loving nut.
You can be assured that when your vehicle comes to us it will be given the same attention to detail and care.

Another satisfied customer, wanted his van looking tip top again the wheels were scuffed and untidy and a bodywork panel was a little worse for wear.
So we gave the wheels a good rub down, primed and repainted, you can see for yourself the difference in the body panel.

🎨 Dave’s Garage | Mini Madness
This poor Mini looked like it had been through the wars — so we rolled up our sleeves and gave it the full Dave’s Garage spa treatment. Bodywork sorted, paint laid down, and a fresh new look that’s turning heads already!

We didn’t stop at the outside either:
✅ New clutch
✅ Icy cold A/C
✅ Brakes & suspension sorted
✅ Full mechanical health check

She’s nearly ready for sale — just needs a couple more shiny bits bolted on. Small car, BIG attitude.

💬 Message us if you fancy taking her home, or if your ride needs rescuing from a midlife crisis.
