CAR STORAGE SILVERSTONE

Our facilities are around 40 minutes from the circuit, up the A43 and across on the A5.

Storage between meetings

Most of what we store is a road car that comes out on Sundays. The cars that come to us from the Silverstone side are frequently something else: competition cars, track day cars, historics that run a handful of events a season and sit for the rest of it.

That is a different storage problem. A car that is set up, corner-weighted and running a race fuel system does not want to be disturbed. It wants to sit indoors, dry, on a charger, with the tyres off the cold floor, and be exactly as it was when the transporter comes back for it.

It also wants somewhere the owner is not paying to heat a domestic garage for eight months to protect one weekend's preparation.

What we are

We are a family-run business operating four discreet rural sites in North Bucks, fifteen minutes apart, with capacity for over 150 vehicles. We do not publish the addresses and visits are strictly by prior appointment. For cars of this value, discretion is part of the service rather than an obstacle to it.

Cars are stored indoors and dehumidified, kept on trickle charge where appropriate, and checked regularly. Detailing, MOT and servicing can be arranged before you collect, so the car is ready to drive rather than ready to recommission.

Around the calendar

The motorsport year has a shape, and storage that ignores it is not much use. We are used to cars leaving in March and coming back in October, to short-notice collection before a test day, and to the fortnight either side of the Silverstone Festival when everything wants to move at once.

Tell us the calendar you are working to and we will fit around it rather than the other way round.

Not only race cars

Plenty of what comes to us from this area is not competition machinery at all. Northamptonshire and the Bucks border have one of the densest concentrations of classic and performance car owners in the country, for reasons that are not hard to work out. If you are simply looking for somewhere secure to keep a road car through the winter, that is most of what we do.
