New member in the South West

Hi, I'm Darrell and just joined MSC today.
I own a small business in Somerset called SimplyMicra see www.simplymicra.co.uk
I buy & sell Micra's, mostly K11, and I am involved in an associate business called Orchard Vehicle Services that specialises in Japanese cars generally and Nissan in particular. See www.orchardvs.co.uk. They are run by father & son team, Allan & Ian Sydenham, both trained Nissan technicians and Allan was workshop manager at Wellington Motors Main Nissan Dealer for 28 years!! before setting up on his own.
We jointly built & run a K11 production class hillclimb car this & last year - mainly standard with modified suspension & brakes, lightened - there's an image on the website showing the car at the top of Wiscombe Hillclimb on it's way to a class award. It's been quite successful; I won a speed training event at Gurston Down Hillclimb this year and a local 12 car night rally, Allan has won class awards at Wiscombe & Ian won the local motor club's summer grasstrack event series. We're thinking of putting a kit together with a technical buildsheet to build duplicates for next year if anyone's interested. It's a cost effective way of entering motorsport with a relatively standard but competitive car.
Next year will see a proper stage rally car out competing on South West tarmac events.
We will be pleased to hear from anyone who needs any work done on their Micra - we're enthusiasts just like you and aim to keep the cost low!!
I'm hoping that we can become one of the suppliers who offers discounts etc in the club - not sure how we could arrange that perhaps someone could let me know.
Hope to meet & speak to some of you soon.
Darrell.
