What we do
Italian car specialists, Bedford
We service, repair, tune and restore Ferrari, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Abarth, and we source the parts and sell the cars too.
Performance Tuning
More from the engine without losing what makes it worth having. Turbo work, exhausts and setup, checked on the dyno rather than guessed at.
Restoration
Full nut and bolt projects through to bringing a stored car back to life. Welding, floors, sills, paint and reassembly.
Italian Car Parts

The garage
Why take an Italian car to an ordinary garage?
We love Italian cars. That is the whole of it. Ferrari, Lancia, Alfa Romeo, Fiat and Abarth — the cars other garages shrug at are the ones we look forward to.
Our Alfa and Fiat technician has over thirty years behind him, and between the workshop, the YouTube channel and the car meets we run, this has become the place Italian owners across the country come to.
