That’s a shame, I always enjoyed a poke around their stand at Helmingham every year.

That’s a great shame.
Bought a new MGF when they were first launched in 1996, and then went on to buy my first Griff 500 from them in 1998.
They also looked after my MGZT V8.
Always great service from them, and very easy to deal with.

That’s so sad. I’m shocked though not surprised as I knew they were struggling.

A good old fashioned specialist gone. frown

The next one after TVR parts… what‘s the reason? Age, market, competitors customers?

Nice bunch of guys especially in the workshop, they use to look after my Griffith and were always fair with maintenance costs etc. would often advise those items that needed attention but were not a failure without putting them on the advisories, followed by an accurate estimate if I wanted the work to be done but with no pressure to agree to have it done. This sort of attitude is most welcome by an enthusiast to confirm that you were not going to be ripped off. Mr Kerridge, senior, was always there and would always stop for a chat with every customer he encountered.
The cars for sale were however always expensive to my mind, but were always top quality; I guess as always "you get what you pay for".
Shame as always to see a dealer of this type close, I doubt it will be sold as a going concern, there is a lot of expensive stock which I suspect will go to "friends" in the trade or auction.
