Conversion Packages and Bespoke Solutions

Spencer Lane-Jones has considerable experience developing and incorporating modifications to help improve the performance, safety, and everyday usability of all the Bristol models. We stock a number of tried and tested conversion packages and components.

Our workshop team are both skilled mechanics and excellent problem solvers. We relish the opportunity to undertake bespoke projects, from simple audio installations to modern air conditioning, or unique bodywork to fuel injection installation.

We are confident that we can deliver on any brief an owner might wish to set us, and we are also happy to advise Bristol owners on the options available to them to sympathetically improve their motor car.
