So you may have noticed a change of name... as it turns out a great local company based in Thaxted that we did not previously know about called EAB Classic Cars - a specialist top end classic car restorer with an excellent service and very friendly and hugely competent team which can be found at www.eabclassiccars.co.uk - got in touch to let us know that EJB Classic Cars sounded a bit similar! We were very surprised but the key to success is working together hence our slight rebranding exercise. Everything else and everyone on board remains the same - it is just a change of website name so please make sure you check us out on Facebook and Ebay for our latest finds. Happy motoring!

So summer has arrived and the classic car heat is on! Currently we have a great MGB available and today we are taking delivery of a very nice 1973 Beetle 1303. Over the weekend we met some great people at the Layer Marney Tower Classic Car Show and saw a vast array of lovely vehicles. We had a great photo shoot and it is always lovely to see so many classic cars fans out and about.

The classic car sales business continues to surprise as well. Some buyers are lovely genuine people with a real interest in the cars and their history and some... well.... are just amazing. We have witnessed some stories of people who agree a deal and then at the last minute - literally while signing the receipt - change their mind or of bidders on a 'popular online auction' who ask lots of questions, bid and then win and then do not make contact - a strange world indeed that I am sure all of you have either witnessed or heard of in the realm of classic cars!

We are in the process of launching our 'try before you buy' initiative. We will be able to offer any car in stock to self drive hire for a day or weekend and when you fall in love with the car discount the hire amount from the selling price. We know that a classic car needs a loving owner so if you are not sure on the sort of car you want or would like to get to know it before you buy this is ideal! There is of course no pressure to buy so you could just take a classic car for a spin! More details of this to follow - please drop us a line if you are interested in hearing more. More updates to follow so please check back soon.

Enjoy the summer and happy motoring!

Chris and the team.
