The workshop
Over four decades on the tools, one bench, your car.
Frank Sizer ran the quarter mile at Santa Pod through the late ’70s before opening the Leighton Buzzard workshop in 1980. Four decades on, he still works the bench himself — the car you book in is the car Frank works on, start to finish.
Classic, American or modern, a routine service or a full recommission — it gets the same attention. Nothing goes back on the road until Frank’s happy with it: done properly, explained plainly, and priced for the work it actually needed.
“I don’t hand a car back until I’d happily drive it home myself.”
What we do
One garage, every job.
Servicing, MOT and repairs, performance tuning, recommissioning, and specialist work on American imports and rare classics — classic, American and modern, all under one roof.

Why owners bring their cars here
Straight answers and proper work.
One master, start to finish. The car you book in is the car Frank works on himself — no hand-offs, no apprentices learning on your motor.
Told straight what a car needs and what it doesn’t. Findings are written up and explained before any work starts, and priced for the job it actually needed.
Based in Leighton Buzzard and serving the surrounding towns — Dunstable, Milton Keynes, Aylesbury, Bletchley and Luton — with UK-wide pre-purchase inspections and collection.
From the bench
Workshop notes.
Why a barn-find needs recommissioning before restoration
Brakes, fuel and wiring first — making a car safe and road-legal before anyone starts talking about paint.
Stage 3, honestly measured
Why we quote tuning gains as a range, not a headline — and what the figures actually mean at the wheels.
MOT prep on an American import — what fails it
LHD quirks, lighting and emissions: the things that most often fail an import the first time around.
