Goodbye And Thank You

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end.

It’s with a mix of emotions that we recently said goodbye to Tom, who has taken on a new role outside of Bridge Classic Cars. Tom has been an integral part of the team for a significant period and his departure marks the end of an era here at the workshop.

There wasn’t really a single job title that matched what Tom did on a daily basis. Although his role primarily involved transporting cars, he actually did far more than this. He had the skills to work on a range of classic vehicles, and his talents even extended to our e-commerce projects, where he helped sell parts online.

Tom’s departure leaves a gap that will be challenging to fill. However, we are extremely happy that Tom has found an exciting opportunity that will take him into the next stage of his career.

From all of us here at Bridge Classic Cars, we would like to say a massive thank you to Tom for all he has done and we wish him the very best in all his future endeavours.

A Classic Christmas Advert

A few weeks ago, I threw the idea out to the team here at Bridge Classic Cars that we should make our very own Christmas advert. With the likes of John Lewis, Aldi, Coca-Cola, and numerous other big names putting out some incredible festive ads over the last few years, I thought we had the capability to do the same.

As great as the popular Christmas Adverts are, we felt that there was one thing missing from pretty much all of them – a classic car. After a bit of time brainstorming, our 1968 Morris 1000 Pickup caught our eye and, alongside Molly, was chosen to be the star of our festive film.

The Story Of Our Christmas Advert

In our Christmas advert, Molly goes on an adventure into a wintery forest to find the perfect Christmas tree for The Atelier at Bridge Classic Cars.

As Molly walks through the forest, she explores her surroundings, searching for that one special tree that would stand amongst our classic cars throughout December. Once she finds one that fits her criteria, she calls upon the help of our classic Morris Pickup.

After loading the tree into the back of our Morris 1000 Pickup, Molly drives away from the forest on her way back to the workshop, where we were all patiently waiting for her arrival so we could officially start our Christmas celebrations.


Classic Cars At Christmas

Beyond the stunning visuals of our Christmas advert lies the love and passion we all have for classic vehicles. We believe that Christmas is about family and spending time with those that you love. We thought we would show you how, to us at least, a car isn’t just a machine to get you from A to B; it can be a big part of your family and they can have their very own personality.

With the release of our festive film, Christmas has begun at Bridge Classic Cars. There are only a couple of weeks left before the big day, so the entire team would like to wish you all a very Merry Christmas and we look forward to seeing even more of you in 2024.

Coming soon – 1989 Daimler Double Six

This may be the first time you have seen our 1989 Daimler Double Six. The car has in fact been with us, in storage, for a number of years now but recently we handed the car over to our good friends at Motts Body Repair in Colchester to push forward with the body restoration of this beautiful machine.

This will eventually return to us for a full recommission before we decide what we will do with the car.

If you would like to see our Double Six as a future competition car then do let us know.
