Experience

2015 marked 40 years specialising in the classic and performance sector of the motor industry.

Andreas’ experience started in London in the 1970’s with Libra Motive, including the competition preparation of the Morgan Motor Company Plus 8 MMC II, that became the 1978 BRDC & 1979 BRSCC winner of the Production Sports Car championship; driven by Charles Morgan and Rob Wells. Following that in the 80’s came a further Libra Motive developed Plus 8, MMC 111, that went on to win the STP Modsports championship.

Andreas then moved to the SW of England and started his own company, endorsed by the Morgan Motor Company appointing him as an Official Morgan Service Agent. Over the last 30 years Andreas has built an enviable reputation not just for servicing and competition preparation of Morgans, but also all types of Vintage, Classic & historic motor cars. The pace of life may have slowed a little with the move a few years ago to SW France, however the range of marques has expanded along with the services, experience and expertise offered.

Today, Garage Andreas is a trade member of the FFVE (Fédération Française des Véhicules d’Epoque) which allows us to keep up to date with legislation and any changes in requirements for obtaining your Carte Grise, importing classic cars, contrôle techniques, exemptions and other frequently changing requirements.
