Our restoration workshop is always an eclectic mix of cars, from pre-war race cars to modern off roaders and everything in between. Such as this, a 1968 Daimler 250 V8 which our technicians have been working on at our Suffolk HQ.

”Attend to broken bonnet cable. Remove front number plate holder and remove grill. Access broken cable and remove. Remove inner cable ready for new. Sort and fit new HT leads and secure.
