The Riley Returns

Our wonderful Riley 11/40 Sports Tourer returns!

She was part of the Bridge Classic Cars family back in 2012 and we loved her. We are very pleased to say that we own her once again. Here she is arriving this morning from Grays in Essex.

You win some you lose some…

So today I lost the battle of the big trucks.

Andreas from Vintage and Prestigeย arrived earlier today to show me his truck, a 2008 Ford F350…and it’s massive, so big that it’s wouldn’t fit down the road!

 

 

We bid farewell to our 1959 Austin Healey Frogeye

Today, we said goodbye to our beautiful 1949 Austin Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite as she makes her way down to Grays in Essex to settle in the Vintage and Prestige showroom.

John had the last drive of her for now but who knows if we’ll see her again.

Unfortunately I didn’t manage to get any photos of John getting out of the Austin Healey ‘Frogeye’ Sprite which is a real pity for comedy value alone!

Here we have her being loaded onto the Vintage and Prestigeย ready for the trip.

Building the Volkswagen T25 Interior

With ourย May deadline of completion on the horizon Asa is now working on the interior of Daisy, our 1989 Volkswagen T25.

The old tired and worn grey seats have been stripped and replaced with a brand new grey and cream interior theme. The Rock n’ Roll bed has also been re-cushioned, covered and the interior structure will start to take shape next week.

All new appliances and lighting will be installed to the customer’s specification.
