Fearnsport shut.

[Redarress]

Just been to one of my suppliers next door to Matts place at Silverstone and he has stopped trading.

Extremely knowledgeable chap who I got on well with. His skills will be missed

Liquidated

Seemed to be the go to place, for GT cars for a fair while

[Redarress]

I know Matt wasn't blessed with the best of health over the years. He is a superbly knowledgeable guy.

[s_mcneil]

Others know more but new focus for Matt, not negative circumstances. Fearnsport were the best!

[Redarress]

yes I knew it was on the cards. Would have liked to wish him well. He helped me out over the years for which I am very grateful.

Always a fantastic selection of cars inside/outside 993RS, 993GT2, 996GT3, Cups, 996GT2 Turbos, 997 ,Gunther Werks 993 Ferrari Challenge etc etc

[SRT Hellcat]

I believe Matt is still trading. Moved to new premises. Other chaps on here will know the full SP

[ImbackYo]

He's brilliant, looking forward to his new chapter, whatever it is. The only man to solve a tricky problem on my old 996tt. Nailed it straight away, after months and hundreds in tracking down a seemingly simple issue.

[Rogere]

On good authority….Matt is in vibrant health and has an exciting new venture. Matt if you are reading this, thanks for everything you did in keeping my 2 mega miles GT3s up to the mark.

Is it any coincidence that the liquidators are within a stones throw of Ginetta ?

[SAS Tom]

I think so. Ginetta isn’t exactly in a car focused area, it just an industrial unit.

Tried my hardest to get Matt to work on my GT3 but he never picked up! Hope his new venture goes well

As I understood it it, he was considering making any initial communication with him, via email, and that was at least 8 years ago.

The question is who is No.2 after Matt now that he is 'off the scene' ??? Who should
GT owners see now?
Is he getting more heavily involved with the new Theon restomod car? I saw him at Silverstone with a green one last year on a track day. Million pound ish cars I think.

Matt is in fine fettle, and is very much enjoying his new venture.

Mike at Sports and Classic, but he’s always very busy…

Theon or Guntherwerks ?

He’s had two of the latter in his care.

A quick search on Companies House will tell you its name and his business partners.
