All set up and ready for the EU Great Yarmouth Trade Show 2026! 🌊

It’s a special one too, as Great Yarmouth marks EU’s final trade show of the year. A great way to round off the 2026 show calendar, with the added bonus of being right by the seaside 🌊☀️

There might even be time to pick up some traditional Great Yarmouth rock while in town! 🍬

If you’re visiting, come and say hello to David Hanslip. He’ll be on hand to talk through the latest from VXPRO and Lucas Vision & Control, and show how the brands are helping motor factors and workshops source quality aftermarket components.

At EU Great Yarmouth today? Make sure to stop by and say hello. Plenty of time for a chat before the year’s final trade show comes to a close.

See you at the show! 👋

Happy World Photography Day! 📸

There’s more to product photography than pointing a camera and pressing the button!

Behind many of the images and content you see from ELTA and our brands is Alex Davis, the man behind our social media and much of the content we share.

These photos show Alex working behind the scenes on a Lucas product group shot; one you may recognise from our recent invitation to Automechanika Frankfurt.

Getting the perfect shot takes a bit of moving, tweaking, stepping back… and occasionally saying, “let’s try that again!”

But great product photography is about more than making things look good.

For motor factors, garages and customers, clear and accurate images can help identify products, compare options and make the right buying decisions.

That’s why we put the time in to make sure our products look as good on screen as they do in the box.

Here’s to the people behind the camera who help bring our brands to life! 📸

A whole lot of VXPRO, ready to go 👀

This is just a glimpse inside the FG7 Ltd warehouse in Ireland, where shelves are packed with VXPRO products ready to support independent motor factors across Ireland and Northern Ireland.

As a long-standing approved supplier to FG7, we’re proud to be part of a network that’s committed to strengthening independent businesses through buying power, exceptional service and access to the products they need.

And with strong logistical and technical support behind the range, members can count on getting the right parts where they need them, when they need them.

That’s what championing the aftermarket looks like.
