Kit-car specialists in Kent

Hi

Are there any forum members from the Kent area?

I am looking for a kit-car garage in Kent (pref. West Kent) who would carry out maintenance and repairs on a Fisher Fury. Any recommendations?

Cheers

i gather there is a place called kitcar builds near brands. no experience with them as a kitcar servicing place but run/owned by Darren George who runs GTS tuning.

I'm sure there is another kit manufcaturer down in medway but can't think who, maybe cranbrook kitcars who -i think are agents for bgh geartech and raw?

Aeon Sportscars of Maidstone will probably sort you out. Ask for John

I'm sure that Fisher Sports Cars still have a place at Marden (near Maidstone) - Mark Fisher.

Also the guys at NF Auto Developments are top fellers with any kit car. Based near Staplehurst. Talk to Neil or Matt Foreman.

Hope it helps

Although Fisher still have a presence in Marden, I don't know how big - they merged with the Kit Car Workshop last year, and now have HO in Rushden, Northants.

Would agree with comments about NF Auto (AKA CBS). Very helpful and friendly, and 20 mins away

Aeon are also in Marden (about 5 mins from NF Auto, so you could see them both!

Where are you?

Also British Racing Automobiles at Biddenden. Ask for Stuart 08709 004303

Marden Fisher Sportscars location is apparently now totally shut (confirmed today on the Sylva List).

Aeon are probably a good bet - they built the Fury chassis for Mark for a spell.

Martin @ TKCWS / FSC also recommends Brian Hill (as in BGH) in Kent. Apparently Simon from Mark's old workshop now works there.

Thanks for all the leads guys. I'm sure I will find a suitably local garage from that list.

Simon - I am in Orpington.

Hello guys,

I am looking for someone in Kent who can help me to prepare the car and the documents for an IVA test.
This is for a MEV EXOCET.

I suggest U2U'ing Ashg on here as he could well be able to help as he has built an Exocet for one of the magazines

Not sure he will agree, cause i am the french dealer for the GBS and before i choose GBS i was visiting him.
But the BMW donor car are more and more expensive in France compares to the Ford Sierra.
