Either Midlands or South.

Specialising in classic Minis, long established and high reputation for quality would tempt me.

Thank you.

Thank you everyone for your suggestions. I now have some firms to consider.

Reasonable, but the David Brown (no relation to DB) creations do not appeal to me at all.

A standard looking, true to original, Mark 1 Mini Cooper S, with huge power from a Swiftune engine, or an Aston Martin DB5 with concealed air conditioning is fine, but sticking many 21st century components on to a 1960s car, just seems ridiculous.

I don't think I am alone having that opinion, because the highest auction sale prices, often tend to be completely original cars, or cars modified for a specific purpose, such as racing or rallying.
