#1 E-type UK USA California Premises.

Post by harryetype » Thu Apr 25, 2013 3:44 pm

After what feels like a lifetime of planning and a few let downs E-type UK USA have finally secured a workshop/showroom in Newbury Park California.

We take over the facility in June with the intention of opening for business in July.

We will also have a fully equipped demonstrator with the following specification:

5 Speed Transmission
Electronic mappable fuel injection
Electronic power steering
Air conditioning
Fast road engine
Sports suspension

I will keep this thread updated with the latest news regarding our USA operation.

Congratulations, Harry. I know this has been a tremendous amount of work to get this operation up and soon to be running. Once it is finished, why don't you open an East Coast shop in your spare time?

David and I are looking forward to the invite to view the new premises Harry. Seriously, good luck with the new venture and if it's as good as the UK operation, I'm sure it will be successful.

You and David are welcome over anytime. I can recommend a good airline. Infact John Hargreaves can an active forum member can fly you out.

Wow--this is good news! I'd been away for the forum for a few months, so haven't been giving E-Types much thought lately. I'm in Thousand Oaks, so I may have to drop in for a visit when you open your doors.

Hi Mark

Its a small World. You are more than welcome to pop in anytime although there might not be too much to see at first. I'll be there in three weeks today.

I worked around the corner from you, on Lawrence Drive, for something like ten years. You chose a nice area to set up shop and I'll swing by to welcome you to the neighborhood :D
