Robin Lawton Vintage And Classic Cars Description
Vintage and Classic motor cars have been my life since the mid-1960‚Äôs when I acquired my first car ‚Äď a Riley Monaco- at the age of 15.
I entered the motor trade in 1968 with Wadhams Group, before moving onto University Motors in the 1970s. In 1982 I successfully set up my own specialist Garage ‚Äď Guildford Sports & Classic Cars - offering MG, Triumph TR and Austin Healey along with a range of quality pre-war cars.
I believe my absolute passion for Vintage and Classic Cars coupled with my depth of experience will ensure you are given sound advice whether buying, selling or running and owning such motor cars.
I look forward to hearing from you.

Well after 10 days of full-on effort, and seriously wonderful help from Oldtimer Services, our kitchen fitters and electrician, our new landlord, Les, Julie, Ian and Geoff, we finally have all our cars secure and happy in our New Premises!! Although we are no where near finished - we are super proud of what we’ve all achieved. Here is a sneak preview!!
We have been extremely busy during the last few weeks, with moving our garage from Froxfield to our new, purpose built premises to the heart of The Meon Valley.
Michelle and I haven’t even had a chance to think about Christmas! We still have so much to do before we are fully operational, but we are enjoying the challenge!!
Unfortunately we just haven’t had the time to send our usual 600 plus Christmas cards this year - apologies!
... We are extremely grateful to all our friends and our close family who have been helping us with our move both physically and emotionally!! It is quite an upheaval after five years in our previous location. #followthatdreamūüŹĀ
We are excited about our plans for 2019 and the opportunities we are going to create to invite fellow enthusiasts to share our passion. Together we can create some magic!
We would both like to this take this opportunity to wish all our motoring friends a very happy and peaceful Christmas and a prosperous 2019 ūüŹĀūüéĄ

Calling all collectors - we are looking for a model aircraft or two to put up in our ceiling - but Robin won‚Äôt give me much budget!! Would anyone like to display their model in our new barn?!! ūüŹĀ. Much better to have it on display and being admired than covered in dust in the loft!
Basics are in the office but no power yet and it‚Äôs ūü•∂ freezing!
Ferrari visitor at The Garage today! ūüŹĀ
One good thing with moving premises is that we get to drive our fabulous cars (as well as transporting them)!ūüŹĀ

Wow - moving again today was something else! Massive THANK YOU to Geoff, Les and Ian for their fantastic support and help - lifting boxes, moving furniture, moving cars, sorting spares and just being outstanding friends to Robin and I. Also our friendly farmer was extremely helpful with his forklift truck in moving our car lift onto a trailer!!! Amazing Team spirit @robinlawtonvintagecarsūüŹĀūüĎŹūüĎŹū üĎŹ
