Hello Everyone
Hello Everyone
I would like to introduce myself to you - I am Dr Nick Croxton and I started my career as an aeronautic designer, working on such prestigious projects as Concorde and after a stint on strategic weapon systems moved to Germany and built a technical design studio employing some 45 people and became preferred supplier to Daimler Benz, Porsche, Hewlett Packard and Blanco amongst others.
My passion has always been a hands-on approach. My dear departed father, formerly a mechanic, gave me my first car (I was 15 years old) a 1961 Ford Anglia and told me to get on with it. Recondition the engine and put it back on the road. It became a labour of love and after many, many hours it was at last beautiful, shining and purring. The satisfaction was immense. That sense of satisfaction is what I can offer you - to know your baby will be treasured and restored to the best possible condition - to bring you pride when you drive it and me the satisfaction that you are happy with the result.
In the last few years I have owned and renovated 5 jaguars - hence joining this forum.
Thank you for your time
Kind regards
Nick Croxton
