Servicing and Restoration

With five decades of experience working on a broad range of classic and specialised cars, Redline Sportscars is immensely experienced in all aspects of car maintenance and restoration.

Specialising in classic British sportscars, we are capable of maintaining, restoring and enhancing automobiles utilising skills passed down through generations.

Proficient in metal and composite bodywork, FIA standard race preparation, mechanical and chassis rebuilds and retrofitting of electrical systems into historic cars, our fully equipped workshop allows to undertake almost any task. Our extensive knowledge centres around Marcos, Lotus and TVR and extends to marques as diverse as Maserati and Gordon Keeble. Moreover, our technical understanding has allowed us to carry out comprehensive restorations of multiple rare and highly sought-after vehicles.

We recently had the pleasure of restoring a 1965 Marcos 1800 GT to FIA specification. Bought in 2014 as a project, the car was stripped down to a bare shell and repainted in Aston Martin Chiltern Green as per the fabled ‘Le Mans 1800’. Major modifications were made to enhance the car’s motorsport pedigree, including:

• Unique aluminium engine bay cladding
• Rear axle conversion
• Bespoke lightweight wiring harness
• Fire extinguishing system and VBOX installation
• Full re-trim using lightened panels

The 1800 gained its FIA passport in 2020 and has since competed in and won a number of hillclimb and sprint events.
