Services
We are the Rawles family. Working on Austin-Healeys & classic cars is a family tradition and we are a company that prides itself on good values, repeat custom and happy employees. For us, it is a way of life. Bill founded Bill Rawles Classic Cars Ltd in 2007 after the sale of and split from his previous company, Rawles Motorsport.
The 100S model was a replica of the 1954 Sebring 12-hour car that finished third overall. The first car fitted with four-wheel dunlop disc brakes, differences to the standard Healey 100 included an aluminum sub structure and body as well as a specially designed inlet and exhaust system. We have looked after 'RLF 500' for over 10 years now and have also built our own re-manufactured 100S.

I've known Bill and his team for around 20 years but hadn't seen them for a while. It was great to get the invitation to the Cars & Coffee events and finally get to show the finished car.
The atmosphere was very relaxed and friendly and I enjoyed talking to a few other owners. I think I may have to join the A-H owners club!
Well done to Bill, his family and team for putting on such a great event.

As my stub-axle recon snow-balled into replacement brake and clutch masters, a 'spot' of welding, free and adjust torsion bars etc. etc. Bill's calm good humoured acceptance that my MG had become a semi-permanent workshop fixture was matched by Rosie always offering tea/coffee like I was a tea-boat contributor. The latest kindness was for Bill to… diagnose a worn out steering rack and on hearing that I was happy to do the job, immediately give me use of his 'spare' ramps and access to tools/hands if needed. Not only is their work completed to the highest standard, but in 30yrs of classic
