Customer soon to enjoy their second Zero on the road.....

/ Great British Sports Cars/

We currently have a very nice Zero with us in the workshop that we recently prepared and presented for its IVA test which is owned by GBS customer Jim Burge. This is Jim’s second Zero build that he has enjoyed and Jim has kindly wrote a few words about his journey of building his two Zeros.

My GBS journey ...
So back in 2014 I made the decision to embark on my own personal challenge of building a GBS ZERO...
My years as a Ford technician became invaluable in enabling me to work through the build but with the confidence of the guys at GBS at the end of a phone to help when needed.
Build completed after 2 years and GBS White was registered and on the road in September 2016.

Lots of fun times enjoyed until I decided it was time to sell up and move on...
What a decision I would quickly regret.
So.. in July 2020, I looked into the GBS Generation 2 Ultimate Kit and decided to go again, this time with a few upgrades as this one was going to be for keeps. The kit was delivered in time for Christmas 2020.
Despite a national pandemic work progressed, this time it felt that the knowledge and experience of the first build made it even more enjoyable and rewarding.
October 2021 GBS Blue was completed and ready for the IVA test which she passed first time.
Now I have the long wait through my choice for Spring 2022 when MY22 GBS is finally registered and ready for the maiden journey..
A huge thank you to Richard, Ruth and all the team at GBS for their help and advice and always being in at the end of the phone for my endless questions..
