Hi, I'm Harry Taylor. My passion for cars began over 50 years ago at around age 14, and by 16, I started my career as an apprentice mechanic at Charles Hurst in Belfast. In 1982, we launched our own business, Botanic Garage, later moving to Newtownards as Ards Auto Exchange, which we sold in 2002.
08/11/2024Having recently retired I now focus on my own classic cars, and buying and selling the odd one along the way. I have a passion for classic cars, both to use and drive, and for the joy of working on them. I'm always on the lookout for something new to enjoy.
08/11/2024If you're considering selling your 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 I receive so many texts and messages that it’s easy to miss one. Besides, what can take ages texting back and forth can usually be sorted in just a few minutes over the phone!
09/11/2024The term "Classic Car" often conjures up visions of gleaming, fully restored show cars that look stunning and drive like a dream. However, the reality is often more complex. Most classic cars are owned and maintained by enthusiasts and come with blemishes, imperfections, and the need for ongoing care and maintenance. It's nearly impossible to identify every defect or anticipate every potential issue. Someone’s charming daily driver can easily be another person’s project car, and one person’s idea of acceptable flaws may differ from yours. Buying a classic car requires careful thought and consideration to ensure it meets your current expectations and the ongoing maintenance costs.
