The 'E' Type Forum

After dealing with Angus for almost 3 years during the restoration of my S2, I can honestly say that the quality of the work that Angus and his team produce is outstanding...mind you havent taken delivery yet :fingerscrossed: What I like is that you can choose the extent of the rebuild/ refurbish......
