Making my old Range Rover Roadworthy

I discovered Classic and Retro Autos a few years ago when my son bought an MGB GT from them My old classic Range Rover need a lot of work doing and Jon and his team have done a first rate job of turning my truck full of tin worm into a very useable classic Range Rover So if you have a classic that needs work take it to Classic and Retro Autos you will not regret it A first rate company dedicated to keeping classic cars on the road Definitely Recommended

THE place for classic car repairs in the Nothh East

If you need quality work on your classic car in the North East you won t do better that taking it to Jon and his team at Classic Retro Don t be put off by the lack of glitz on the website and signage - I was and it ended up costing me thousands of wasted pounds at a so-called specialists near Stanley Where do you go with a rare-ish italian twin cam from the 60s Eventually I talked to Jon and he took the time to give the car a thorough assement then the team set about patiently and methodically unpicking all the bodges and mistakes made by the last place I took it to Jon s communication is second to none updating me regualrly with issues when they arose but more importantly giving confidence the team could fix them The little red Fiat is finally back on the road and driving like it should A real workshop with people who know how older cars work and can diagnose problems without plugging in to a computer and carry out repairs with a high level of attention to detail Thanks again Jon and we ll be back soon for the cosmetic work

Excellent knowledgeable services

Jon and the team have been fantastic and very patient with the restoration of our bmw for the last four years With any vehicle restoration there were more issues than first thought but nothing was too big or small for the team The on going support and advice received from Jon is excellent and is very much appreciated Many thanks again

An Unmatched Restoration Experience

I ve been racking my brain for weeks trying to find the right words to describe my experience with this business But truthfully no words can fully do justice to the exceptional work Jon and his team put into restoring my dream car In the world of classic car restoration Jon is a true legend He and his team are the only people you want working on your pride and joy no one else even comes close As a younger enthusiast I ve been dreaming of owning my classic since I was a kid I couldn t afford a pristine example in the exact spec I wanted so I took a chance on one that needed a bit of work And looking back I m so grateful I did because it led me to Classic and Retro From the start Jon was fully transparent about what my car needed He provided detailed updates including photos of every single stage of the process from bodywork and mechanicals to every last nut and bolt It s rare to find a garage that goes to such lengths but Jon and his team made me feel like I was part of every step which is priceless when you re this invested in a car Now thanks to Jon and his team I know my car inside and out with a documented history of every adjustment repair service and upgrade They ve turned my long-time dream into a reality and brought the car to a level that s well beyond what I imagined If you ve got a classic you want restored with care knowledge and absolute integrity Classic and Retro is the only place to go Trust me you won t find a better team anywhere
