Latest news about Banks Station Garage

Good news, I think.
As of Monday 3rd June Richard has successfully transferred his parts business over to two guys in Solihull.
I have just made an order with them and all seems well. They call themselves Lotus Supplies Ltd.
You will see on Richard’s Parts site a new phone number that will get you through to Nick or Dave.
+44 1926 835296.
I spoke with Nick and he seems a genuine guy with experience in running a Europa in the past.
Richard will still be available on his normal number to take calls for advice. He said he will still be busy manufacturing many of the parts that make up the parts list.
Nick said in time there will be a new web site with more pictures and an easier ordering system.
So I wish Nick and Dave good luck for the future and continued access to Richard’s parts and invaluable knowledge.

That does sound like very good news!

Same neck of the woods as Paul Matty's, I wonder if these guys are ex-PM's who have set up on their own after Paul retired ?

Sounds encouraging. Thanks for the 411.

I cannot find Lotus Supplies website.

Any clues please?

No answer from +44 1926 835296.

I've been waiting for there to be some evidence of the change on Richard's website but so far, nothing. If Richard's number doesn't answer, that is even more disturbing.

Apparently the deal has happened, but the winner is yet to make themselves public.

I bought two engine mounts from Nick last week.
If you look on Richard’s web site the new phone number is shown and the statement about Lotus supplies ltd.

[4129R]

That does not fit very well with this.

[gideon]

On the other hand, it might fit in well with this.

[4129R]

and there was I thinking you could not have 2 companies with exactly the same name, even if one no longer exists.

I know not enough about Company Law.

So this company, Lotus Supplies Ltd., is now selling Richard's parts. Does anybody have a website or phone number for them?

+44 1926 835296.

I cannot find a web site at the moment.

[BDA]

Isn't that Richard's phone number? Do you know if they are working out of Richard's place? I'm confused...

[4129R]

Richard's number is +44 1704 227059

The new mob are in Warwickshire which is south of Birmingham, a fair way away from Banks.
