Wake up at a sensible time …. no alarms necessary

No queuing for a shower or bathroom

Sun at just the right temperature (Ginger nut warm)

decent set of wheels at the ready

No fighting for parking space’s and free parking at departure point

Total tranquility at point of departure

Slipping out of the bay

Not another boat in sight

Destination Luss, 20 minutes return by power boat against a 2 hour drive

Client on time.

with our client delighted with his purcase, the commercial would end up with a proper Scottish pint brewed in Glasgow….. Cheers

as a PS it would end like this

“ Having spent some time looking for my ideal classic car I found an absolutely immaculate Opel Manta 1.8s Berlinetta listed on Border Reivers web pages. A quick e-mail and a viewing / test drive were promptly arranged.

Tom met me at his impressive show room, the car was beautifully presented and I was left to look round it while Tom answered any questions I put to him . No pressure and I was also welcome to look at the other classics in stock……all very desirable!

A test drive was completed and collection date agreed despite Tom heading off on a family holiday.

Transport to collect the car was a little difficult for me but solved when Tom kindly collected me by boat and also laid on a Porsche as transport to the bank to make payment. A very smooth, pleasant, stress free transaction and a car that exceeded expectations and has performed faultlessly.

I would have no hesitation in recommending Border Reivers to anyone looking for that immaculate set of unusual wheels”

We are delighted Indre is going to be working along side Border Reivers in joint promotions, our pictures should be a lot more interesting in future.

She’s at it again. Cuddling & Kissing random furry things ………. must be a girl thing

A client came to us with a major headache his beloved Rolls Royce engined Vanden plas had been damaged & he couldn’t get a radiator anywhere…….. A phone call to Stevie at East End radiators and it was sorted as simple as that. All done at a price that was more than fair for the quality work that was done. I’ve never used anyone else since I started working and never been let down, which is quite incredible. www.eastendradiators.co.uk

ADAM LYON

1991-2018

I love the Isle of Man TT races. I really hate when there is injury or death. I don’t know if its because I’m a Father or just getting older but it really gets to me. This Brave and Talented Scottish rider is not just another statistic, he is someones Son who went to the TT with hope & expectation never to return. I could get very angry writing this, can you imagine if it happened in any other sport. I wish I had a teaspoon of his bravery. He paid the ultimate price for the sport he Loved. He knew the dangers & chose his moment . Some of us do nothing special or brave and get to grow old and suffer all the shite old age brings. Adam will always be young . The only ones who suffer are those he leaves behind.

Thank you for the memories you’re exciting riding provided & for the bravery shown. Rest in Peace Adam
