Dear All,
Julian Messent and LMB have decided to part ways due to a difference in opinion about leadership and the direction the company should be heading.
Julian will be starting a new company where he will concentrate on his specialties. Where appropriate the companies will assist each other in the future.LMB will continue to provide first class service as a company that specializes in the maintenance, repair and restoration of motorcars, mainly from the 1920-1950 era.
Julian has setup a new company, Historic Competition Services, and will be concentrating on cars roughly between 1925 and 1955 and of course Lagondas and parts production.
We welcome your business as ever and expect to deliver the best service possible.

JulianJulian Messent23 February 2015 at 14:09 #51171Hi all
Just to let you know that the machine shop and workshop are now up and running at full speed with a busy workshop and at least one complete Lagonda restoration under go.Regards,
JulianJulian Messent28 June 2016 at 18:26 #52028Hi all,
Small mention that the HCS workshop has rather a few special Lagondas in at the moment.
Lovely LG45 DHC once owned and rallied by Allan Good himself,
Another fantastic LG45 DHC came in today from Switzerland for work,
A 2 litre Low chassis in for engine work, 2 Rapiers, a great looking M45 with rare T5 bodywork in for an engine rebuild and gearbox upgrade. Another M45 for restoration and a couple of 4.5 litre engines for upgrades.
Amongs all the rest of the various cars ranging from no less than 3 Talbot Lago T26s, 1 Vauxhall 30/98, 1 Ferarri 250, 2 WO Bentleys, 1 Derby Bentley, 1 Alfa Romeo 1750, 1 Maserati 350GT, 1 Talbot 105 and god knows what I have forgotten while I type this. we are packed and keeping our 6 full time workshop technicians and 2 office staff very busy indeed.
YES I did say ‘6’ 😀 😀
I of course do nothing but drink Coffee and the work just pours in on it’s own but you all knew that already didn’t you 😀 😆 😆
Anyway, it’s 8pm and I had better get back in the workshop to help the pixies fix the cars over night or the guys will shoot me when they get in in the morning and nothing has changed.
Maybe see one or two of you at the Palais het Loo at the weekend?Tatty bye,
Julianbill29 June 2016 at 17:52 #52030Well done Julian. It is good to know that things are going well.
I am sure that even though you are obviously very busy your input to this Forum is appreciated by all – as long as you have enough time to do so !Julian Messent4 July 2016 at 11:08 #52036Thanks Bill,
It’s all of you guys who put me where I am today so I will be here for a while yet :o)
Thanks and best regards,
