Lotus repairs and performance parts

As well as routine Lotus servicing, we are able to carry out repair work and performance upgrades - be they suspension, brake or engine related.

Please contact us to discuss your requirements - we're always happy to provide advice and prices for the work you have in mind.

Lotus geometry checks

We have a SuperTracker, fully computerised 4 wheel alignment equipment and can carry out any steering or geometry checks or adjustments your car might need.

Ideally, you should have a 4 wheel alignment check carried out on an annual basis, or more frequently if you attend regular track days.

Guide prices (based on Lotus Elise models), including VAT are:

4-wheel alignment check only £85
Alignment check, adjust front/rear alignment £135
Alignment check, adjust front/rear alignment and camber £195
Alignment check, adjust front/rear alignment, camber, castor and ride height check £325

Please note these are guide prices only, and if steering and suspension bolts and fasteners are corroded and difficult to undo, or a car is particularly difficult to set up, extra charges may apply for the additional labour and/or parts required to carry out the work.

Lotus Restorations

Every year, we undertake a select number of Lotus restoration projects.

Our Technicians have a great store of knowledge and expertise in this type of work, and look forward to the challenge of each new project, treating each car as if it were their own - which indeed it is whilst with us!

During the restoration, we always encourage owners to visit to see and discuss progress through the various stages.

In our specialist coach trimming workshop, we carry out all Lotus interior trim work from re-covering seats to a complete interior retrim.  We also manufacture and replace Lotus hoods and tonneaus.  Our coach trimming experts, Shaun and George have a vast wealth of experience from the simple to the most complex of projects.

Courtesy car

To simplify things for you when bringing your Lotus in for service, we can offer a free courtesy car.  But please give us plenty of warning if you'd like to borrow one of our courtesy cars - they are popular!  Alternatively we can normally run you to/from Bedford or Milton Keynes stations.
