About Me

I have worked for many years (since 1985!) in both Classic car and Motor Sport industries. Originally running an MG restoration company and also serving as a ‘works’ mechanic for the MG team in the World Rally Championship.

Competition car preparation has been a big part of my working life and has also included being part of the Toyota ‘works’ team running the official TMG Toyota GT86 CS-R3 in the British Stage Rally Championship.

A major aspect of such work is understanding the importance of various aspects of vehicle reliability and maintenance, including the simplification of arduous tasks to ensure that they are not overlooked.

Such a philosophy is equally applicable, though often not as easy to implement, to classic car maintenance. It is with this in mind that I have developed the ‘Grease Monkey’ remote lubrication system. An easily installed modification that greatly reduces ongoing issues with the longevity of classic car suspension systems and actually makes the servicing of such, a pleasure rather than a chore.
