Hello All!

Firstly we’re sorry for not keeping in touch.  Today we’ll update you on what’s been happening and future plans.

We’ve had a change of staff recently.  After our previous fabricator left for pastures new we welcomed a new member to the team.  Marc Cannell has joined as our very first Apprentice Fabricator & Welder.  A keen motor enhusiast and biker, Marc’s hard work enthusiasm has already cemented his place in the team.  Marc attends Northampton College one day a week and we look forward to helping him achieve his qualifications and build a solid career for his future.

 Our F3 wishbone project has gone from strength to strength this year.  Our pilot scheme began with Fortec Motorsport and spread to Carlin Motorsport, now 2009 National Champions and 2009 International Champions respectively.  We’ve already had requests and enquiries for 2010 from more teams and we are very excited about furthering this product line as Championship winning components!

On the historic side we have keenly followed the progress of the Jaguar E-Type we built as an investment project for Booker Motorsport earlier this year.  After a brief sojourn to an Irish owner the car has just been sold again.  We hope the new owners are very happy with the car and it provides them with success and enjoyment.

We are now working on Andy Dee-Crowne’s Jaguar E-Type.  At this stage we are completing a roll cage and various bits of metalwork before the car goes to painters for it’s coat of glorious gunmetal grey.  Andy will be using the car for tours, trackdays and the occasional race thrown in for good measure!  Stay tuned for progress updates on our work with Andy.  A keen historic car fan, Andy is in the process of selling his Jaguar XK120 and you can check out the details here.

On a similar note Tester Engineering is currently promoting it’s Jaguar XK120 and Jaguar E-Type for sale.  If you’re in the market to have a stunning car built just for you, check out the links and give us a call.  We’ve just had some really exciting news regarding forthcoming E-Type racing and we’ll bring you further information very soon.

I think that brings us up to date!  All that remains is to wish you all Season’s Greetings.  2009 has been a very difficult year for our proud Nation; we hope everyone has the opportunity to finish the year with a Merry Christmas and we wish you all a happy, healthy and prosperous 2010.

Kind regards

Jim and Claire Tester
