Hi, I'm Harry Taylor. My passion for cars began over 50 years ago, around the age of 12. By 14, I was already involved in stock car racing, and at 16, I started my career as an apprentice mechanic at Charles Hurst in Belfast. In 1982, we launched our own business, Botanic Garage, and in 1993, we relocated to Newtownards, operating as Ards Auto Exchange until we sold the business in 2002.
08/11/2024If you're considering buying or selling a classic car, please feel free to get in touch, I’d be happy to help! I'm available seven days a week from 9am to 7pm, just give me a call at 0739 44444 80. A call is always best, as what can take ages texting back and forth can usually be sorted in just a few minutes over the phone!
09/11/2024Satisfied with the classic cars I owned myself and often being offered more than I could realistically keep, I saw an opportunity to share these classics with fellow enthusiasts. The idea for a business began to take shape, and Cherryvalley Cars and Classics was founded to connect people with the joy and experience of owning classic cars.
08/11/2024The term "Classic Car" often brings to mind perfectly restored show cars, but the reality is usually more complex. Most are owned and maintained by enthusiasts, and will come with imperfections and the need for ongoing care. Buying a classic car requires careful consideration, and factors such as price, condition and maintenance costs should not be overlooked.
09/11/2024Owning a classic car is a hobby and after you buy, be prepared for ongoing care and maintenance. But don't let this put you off, it’s all part of the enjoyment of owning a piece of automotive history.
