Hi all.

 

I have recently had the pleasure of dealing with Bill Richards who has rebuilt an engine for me and he has asked me to let the community know that he is in the process of relocating from Ashford, Kent over here to the isle of wight.

 

Bill does all of the reconditioned and modified engines for Minispares and offers his services to the public whether it's a standard rebuild or an out and out monster.

 

He is a lovely guy and knows absolutely everything to do with our mini's engines and definitely worth speaking to if you require engine work or rebuilds.

 

He has had built a very nice modern workshop and it's kitted out with all the equipment nessacery to do all aspects of machine work.

 

If anybody has any enquiries for him, I would be happy to pass on his details.

 

Cheers

Ben

Maybe he is getting to old for racing. Ashford is much handier for Lydden Hill and Brands Hatch

I witnessed Bill's very scary crash close up at the Brands Hatch Mini Festival on Saturday 25th August 2018.....

What class is that MAB or is it mixed?  Just wondering what the Lotus-esque cars were?

It was MSVR All-Comers and the Fastest Mini in the World combined.....to make up the grid numbers for that day I think.
