ROCKETS ALL THE WAY FOR EXO
Dec 5th
A few changes to tell you about at Exo Sports Cars. Firstly, the company has moved from their Nottingham city centre base with their new location being just two minutes’ drive from the Tuxford exit on the A1 near Newark. Just north, in fact.
The new facility has much more parking available and will be much easier to find.

Among the exciting new products being finalised by Jenvey Dynamics to join their Heritage range is this IDF Heritage Throttle Body TDFS, which includes pre-built throttle body, position sensor, fuel rail injectors and looms.
This part is designed and completely manufactured in the company’s workshop in Shropshire. It boasts all of the many plus-points associated with individual throttle bodies, yet manages to marry these with the subtle, understated looks of a period IDF carburettor ensuring that if you are aiming for a certain look with your classic car or classic replica you can achieve it.
The Heritage Throttle Body is an entirely homogenous More >
CUT IT OUT
Dec 5th
Modern brake pipe cutters can be quite small and compact but there are many instances when working on the car there is still not enough clearance to turn the cutter around the whole circumference of the brake pipe.
This new mini brake pipe cutter from Laser Tools (part number 7624) solves this problem with its ratchet mechanism. Simply slide the cutter over the pipe — the handle gives excellent leverage and even if space is really restricted, a few turns of the handle will quickly and cleanly cut straight through. It is self-adjusting, so no need to keep tightening the blade More >

NEW ARIEL ACE IS ACE!
Nov 28th
Built as a celebration of the ‘Black Ariels’, the motorcycles produced in the period from 1926 to 1930 when Ariel modernised and re-invented their bikes as ‘The Modern Motorcycle’, the latest model Ariel Ace has been named the ‘Iron Horse’.
Originally coined by Vic Mole, Ariel sales manager, back in the day, the Iron Horse legend was given to Ariel motorcycles from the mid-twenties onwards. Responsible for feats such as riding 10,000 miles without stopping, climbing Mount Snowdon and crossing the English Channel, all on an Ariel motorcycle, Vic Mole was influential in the design and modernisation of the Ariel brand.

SMART TYRES

Another cracking product from the Polish ‘advantage through quality’ car care brand, Tenzi is their Tyre & Rubber kit, which I’ve enjoyed using recently. When the rain has relented. At least, after a period of rain when your car is looking a bit shabby, you can see real results by spending a couple of hours detailing it.
The Tyre & Rubber pack contains a 300ml bottle of product, a quality microfibre cloth and an applicator for accurate application to the tyre.
It gives a deep, wet-look effect on the sidewall that protects from water and dirt, while it deepens colour returning the More >
