The Wren Classiscs team have a very wide and deep knowledge of cars and bikes with experience of all aspects of maintenance and restoration. 

From the left, meet Fred, Rhys, Andrew, James, Steve and Bert (real name Steve)

We are also experts in enjoying an occasional beer! THis particular night we were celebrating the completion of a restoration where the team had worked flat out for 2 weeks including evenings a weekends, to meet a customer's deadline.

 We are experts in diagnosing problems with:

- engines,

- ignition systems,

- carburettors / fuel injection systems

- suspension and handling,

- steering,

- braking systems,

- vehicle electrics

In fact we can sort out just about anything related to your car or bike!!

We can do this for both old and newer vehicles.

The older ones are our speciality but we are happy to work on modern vehicles too as we do have the capability to plug the computer into the OBD port and analyse most issues on most cars.

We have a full machine shop with a lathe, milling machine, bench grinder, sand blaster etc and we are experts at welding and fabrication too. 

 

The team consists of:
