  • Retro Sports Cars work closely with the ex MG Rover engineers, Andy Kitson & Alan Phillips, who now run Vehicle Handling Solutions. These highly experienced engineers have been developing road and competition car suspension, steering and braking systems in conjunction with aerodynamics, for over 30 years.

    VHS worked hard to develop the suspension for our MG3 1.8 turbo conversion and we have an MGTF courtesy car fitted with VHS 's Bilstein suspension kit and anti roll bars which has been set up by them to give the optimum ride and it is available for anyone who wishes to try the VHS suspension kit before they buy. We can guarantee you won't be disappointed.

  • Here at Retro Sports Cars we are proud to be the Lotus centre and Northern authorised dealer for Kmaps.

    As a K series specialist , we offer MEMS 3 upgrades - the ecu system fitted to four cylinder petrol cars made after 2000, developed by ex MG Rover engineer Mark Stacey.

    The core of the service is to offer noticeable improvements by optimising your ecu settings.

    ​The gains for  K series engines, whether a Caterham, Lotus or MG, are stronger midrange/peak output, revised limiter and smoother idle (to alleviate the classic Caterham gearbox idle rattle!), crisper throttle response, better fuel economy and 8-10% power gain.

    ​But thats not all, the package also offers..

    Rev limit resetting

    Further ignition/fuelling/idle optimisation where needed (cam upgrades etc)

    Engine MIL light elimination (to free up catalyst/exhaust choice)
