On dwindling numbers and future parts supplies - Page 3

For the most part, DMGRS's future focus is indeed on availability rather than price.
We'll be competitive, but we want to be able to invest money in new tooling / parts that are hard to find - and this doesn't go hand-in-hand with joining eBay etc in the race to the bottom on price.

We've got some absolutely fantastic projects in the pipeline, not least heater control valves for the 260 (currently £300 each) and suspension bits and pieces too.

Stay tuned, the end is nowhere in sight for our lovely cars yet.
And yes, the heater valve work was an excuse to buy a 260... and here she is!

This is awesome. For a classic car, am always happy that I can still buy parts, price is mostly irrelevant if it means I can keep the car on the road.
