Nice start to the year for a GBS Customer who collected his new factory built Zero…

Those of you that visited our stand earlier this month at the Autosports Show would have seen a very nice spec Zero on display along side our new Zero demonstrator. That Zero was a factory built Zero that was collected last weekend by its new owner Mr Robin Copley.
Robin and his wife Hazel came to the factory for the hand over on Saturday and to test drive their new car, then we delivered the car later that afternoon to their home.
Robin and Hazel also joined us on our stand at the Autosports Show where their Zero attracted a lot of attention over the four days, Robin’s Zero is of similar spec to our new Gen 2 Zero demonstrator which is….

Robins Zero Spec: Sport Chassis , Painted Mercedes Polar White, 2.5 Duratec Engine, Power 200 - 350 bhp, 5 Speed manual gearbox, Carbon Dash with Smiths Flight Gauges, Carbon Fibre Finishing panels, DRL Style Headlights, ATR Adjustable Suspension, ATR Brakes Front: ATR 300mm floating discs 4 pot caliper, Rear: Disc & Caliper Upgraded.

On Saturday Kurtis who built Robin’s Zero was also here for the handover along with Richard, we have already received some photos from Robin as he has already enjoyed several miles in his new Zero. Robin and Hazel have several road trips planned already for the year including a camping trip and road trip to France as well as looking forward to enjoying it out on the track too. They will also be joining us at our first GBS Cars & Coffee event which is happening on Saturday 21st March the GBS Factory, more details can be found on our events page.

You may have already seen that we made a short video from our time at the Autosports International Show and Richard talks through some of the features on the new Gen 2 Zero Factory build that was on our stand which was Robins Zero. Click here to see video.

The weather could not have been better for it, it was cold but stayed dry it was the morning for the sports cars to be out the garage, the car park was busy all day with people and sports cars. We love how we get lots of Zero owners join us as well a full range of other sports cars, there is always something interesting to see!

We were also delighted that Bernd and the team were able to join us for the weekend from Germany and we think you will all agree the food (Currywurst, German Sausages in bread rolls along with Gluhwein) they were cooking and serving for us all was excellent and enjoyed by everyone along with all the tea, coffee, Christmas Cake and Mince Pies that also went down very well, we had non left! We hope to have raised lots of money for our chosen charities too.

We would also like to thank Richard Scarborough from Witham Motorsport for supporting our event and proving mugs and goodies for you all to enjoy, it was also great that Richard was able to enjoy us on the day too.

At the end of the day our Zero demonstrator was busy doing a few passenger rides, including a test drive enjoyed by a visitor that came over from Greece especially for the event after seeing it on Facebook. We would like to say a big THANK YOU to you all for joining us, and hope you enjoyed the day as much as we did. If you were unable to make it then please remember that you are always welcome to come and see us at the GBS Factory anytime, we don’t have any mince pies left but we always have plenty of biscuits if you visit before Christmas or anytime!

GBS Featured in Magazine & Interesting sports cars in the GBS Car Park....

A few months ago we welcomed Editor Steve Hole from TKC Magazine to GBS where he looked around the factory and enjoyed a drive in our new Zero Gen 2 demonstrator. It had been a few years since Steve last visited so a lot has changed and developed. Steve took our new Zero Gen 2 demonstrator out for a test drive, we are very lucky as we have some great roads close to the factory so Steve was able to put the car through it paces to see what he thought….  When Steve arrived back from his test drive in the new Zero he got out the car and shook Richards hand and said “This car is brilliant, that’s all I can say really”. It’s nice to see that the full feature on GBS and our new Zero Gen 2 can now be seen in this month’s TKC Magazine November / December Issue which is out now in the shops.

Our new Zero demonstrator can be seen this weekend (8th-10th November) on our stand at the Classic Motor Show at the NEC along with two other nice Zero’s one of which will be for sale. Follow us on Instagram to see photos during the show and behind the scenes.

Our last GBS Cars & Coffee event was also featured in Complete Kit Car Magazine last month too. Will you be joining us on Saturday 7th December at GBS for our Christmas Cars and Coffee event? Click here for more details

The GBS Workshop often has some very interesting and sometimes unusual cars in, as does the GBS Car park and last week I spotted this little green sports car in the car park.... It was an original Frazer Nash Targa Florio Mk2, which captured the interest of all the GBS Team. We have also recently prepared and presented a very different vehicle to IVA, which some of you may have seen when you visited the GBS Workshop. We will share more on that with you all next week. Click below for more details about the workshop services that we offer.

Rolls-Royce Motor Club visit GBS for a Factory Tour….

We get a lot of enquires for Factory Tours for owners clubs and sports car clubs all over the country, earlier this year we were approached by Henry a GBS Customer who has a Zero Race to ask if we would do a factory tour for  a club he is a club secretary for which is the Rolls Royce Motor Club.

We offer a few Factory Tour dates throughout the year including weekends and evenings and on Saturday we were pleased to welcome 25 members from the Rolls-Royce Motor Club to the GBS factory for a  tour of our facilities with Richard and the GBS team. During their tour they saw a lot of behind the scenes of how our bespoke sports cars and products are produced. Thomas was in our Machine Shop demonstrating what he does on the CNC machines and how parts are designed and manufactured. Two members of the club have built a Zero sports car and it was great to see that one of them arrived in his Zero, despite the heavy rain on the day!

Feed back from the tour was very positive and enjoyed by all, one member emailed to say
GBS is an amazing company. Their engineering exceeded by far my expectations. They can potentially redefine the kit-car and definitely set new standards for the "sevens". Their parts are retrofitted in other "sevens".
It is one of the those stories "if what is available on the market is not good enough, DIY" And all these with very competitive prices. – Anestis G, Rolls-Royce employees Motor Club

The morning generally starts with tea/coffee and biscuits in the GBS Show room then onto the GBS Workshop, Design & Development Room, Machine & Engineering, Clean Room, Kit Spares Store and then back into the showroom for more refreshments, questions and often a test drive in one of our Zero demonstrators.
Our GBS Factory Tours are free but we ask for a kind donation to be made to our chosen charities which are Cancer Research UK and Notts & Lincs Air Ambulance.

We hope that the Rolls Royce Motor Club all enjoyed their visit to GBS and we would like to say thank you for your kind donations that you made on the day. Click here to see a short video that we created of when the Rolls Royce Motor Club members visited us.
