If you read the article, it tells you what the name changed to, and when. The "new" name is still trading.

I read the article and noted the name change; but I knew that already.

This comapny is adverting the sale of TVR's on the PH web site. They are called Pure Lotus http://www.pure-lotus.co.uk/
The address is Lime Street, Harrogate...the same address and premises as 'Drive Style Harrogate Horseless; hence the question.

Maybe the answer is there are two comapnies trading from that address? Maybe the answer is Drive stlyle have moved address from Lime Street? Maybe the answer is they are just two seperate companies?

Cheers. BB.

Pure lotus used to be at Thorpe Arch Wetherby.
Appears they have moved into Drivestyle's old showroom/service at Lime Street Harrogate
Far from being pure lotus they have always had the odd TVR or two.

Drivestyle are at Pannal now.

I just bought my Boxster from J at Pure Lotus, a real pleasure to do business with.

Hi all, I should be going to view a car at Pure Lotus soon and I just wondered if anyone knew much about their background?
I am travelling quite a distance so if anyone could share their experience with Pure Lotus or pass any useful comments on to me about them it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Alain

Alain,

Email Andy through his profile as he uses them.

jock mcsporran's Profile

I went with him when he was last over and they seem a nice, clean, well organised set up from first impression.

Schnozz is probably the best one to ask. It his him who recommended them to me. I've only used them once to remove my gearbox and refit after a rebuild. They put in the extra effort to sort me out including the mechanic staying in an extra hour at night so that I could collect the box the same day. Haven't bought anything from them so can't comment on that side.
