Marshall have a long historic association with the RAF. Having maintained the Hercules fleet and trained twenty thousand + pilots in the second world war at the Marshall Cambridge Airport.

Tesla

05 October 2015

Tesla So as so often can happen, fate was at work. I guess I was feeling frustrated with the usual conservative information feed, or perhaps some subconscious influence was at work what with all the Jeremy Corbyn focus of late and his inaugural speech to his party making me feel like I wanted to be a student again with all that optimism of youth. So when we pulled into the fuel station on our way to Gatwick, and while Rick put diesel into his tank, I made an instinctive move and purchased a copy of the Guardian, something I haven’t done since I was, well, a...

One Man went to Mow

08 September 2015

ONE MAN WENT TO MOW WENT TO MOW A MEADOW from Jonathan Ross This little friend has stood shoulder to shoulder with me as I have fought nature.

When you mow you have time to think, put your problems into perspective, take in the view. I love gardens but the only time I ever really... Read full article

World of interiors by Jonathan Ross

03 September 2015

WORLD OF INTERIORS Of course as a company we are always urging our clients to ensure that vehicles are returned in a decent condition. All dents and damage repaired and everything in accordance to the BVRLA’s guide lines on FW&T. So it’s only right that I should lead by example. My accident record remains one of irritating ‘bad luck’. It’s wing mirrors that get hit by white vans going past me to fast in narrow lanes, windscreens that get chipped, and tyres that get damaged in pot holes because our roads are so badly maintained, and...

Clients enjoyed hill drives and this year's hospitality courtesy of SEAT was sensational. "I guess Goodwood is now the Motor Show, and when you consider all the other attractions on offer it's no wonder so many of our customers choose to join us. My favourites are enjoying the view from the balcony of the grand house and the classic cars on the lawn. But... Read full article
