There's some news in the motorsport section.

The G10 is being collected on Monday for some cage fabrication.

While our lightweight round tube G4 comes together, we are rebuilding the G27R into a G20 GTC which should be a somewhat quicker and less-expensive process.

But we do have a genuine 1966 square tube, road-registered, competition G4 coming. Email us.

1st February 2010 Where did January go?! We spent some happy times at the Autosport Show where the lovely G40 was unveiled

The G10 body is looking good and there are some pictures on the bulletin board. The G32 Turbo is running and nearly ready for the MOT. We have bought a G20 junior to build into a racer a la G20 GTC and we are working on the G27 race car also.

We are interested in buying G27 body panels, particularly light weight ones and we are gearing up to be able to support all the various models that were produced by Ginetta cars. To that end, our G4 style bonnet for the G4/4 and G27 will shortly be available.

One G4 is off to the paintshop. We have a special offer on a G12 body/chassis - email Joel for details and we have a round tube G4 chassis in stock - email Joel again. Yes! Joel has taken on an administration role in addition to his technical work in order to give Spadge more time to expand the business.

There is an update on the G4 racing page.

6th January 2010 Happy New Year?!

Snow has delayed the return of several  finished cars since the break. And even worse, we've sold our blue race G4 just when he'd got it all sorted. The proud new owner is an old friend with a bad neck!

Work has started on that special G32

Anyone interested in the Goodwood Test Day in February should email Spadge for more details.

A little more news in the USA section.

In the dark of Saturday night, a number of fellow Ginetta Owners' Club Committee members descended on the Black Barn and dumped all the GRS moulds and a G21 bodyshell with the roof chopped off. None of us can quite work out why, it just seemed the right thing to do!

1st December  2009  G15 number one is having it's unique bib re-constructed. John's G4 now has it's roof fitted and aeroscreen done too.

There's an out of date G15 user guide on ebay for £30! Why bother when ours is up to date and free?!

We have a Dare G4 in, upside down, working on the chassis - it's not pretty!

G15 chassis number 1 is under restoration but even now - it's not pretty!

The two G4s we're building are both great but at that stage where -it's not pretty!

The boys are working hard on the G4/4 but, you guessed it.... - it's not pretty!

Roger Cowdray has been in touch recently and this was him in his G15. There are more pictures of racing G15s on Alan's popular bulletin board topic.

We are organising a track day at Goodwood for friends/customers in conjunction with Joe at Throbknozzle. It will be in mid/late February 2010. It will be open to road and race cars and we will bring our corner weight gauges and tracking equipment with us. There will inevitably be some sort of centralised catering arrangement to further encourage the social nature of the proceedings! Email if you are interested.

The office is closed until Monday 2nd November. Work will continue on a round tube G4, a square tube G4 a Dare G4, a G15 and a G4 style bonnet mould to fit G27s and G4/4s.

George Gould, one of the original owners of the green G4 was reunited with it at the meeting. Other highlights included meeting Nichola from Germany who wants to race a G4, the all-mini St Mary's Trophy on Sunday and the TT race on Sunday with some stunning Ferraris and Lightweight E types battling for an hour.

There's an interesting Ginetta for sale here

The driveability of the long cockpit G4 was an eye-opener at the weekend when we went to cheer on the Ginetta LMP1 at Silverstone. Nigel spoke to us in the salubrious factory hospitality area and his comments about driving and positive reaction to the car were interesting.

We are really pleased to announce the imminent appointment of an exclusive agent in Japan. They  have excellent facilities and through them we will be providing a full range of cars, parts and accessories for the Japanese market. More details soon!

Alistair's G15 is just waiting for a road test.

Remember the yellow G15 we sold? Well Sam is getting on well with the straight - forward restoration that we told him it would be.

Rather than play with his G4 that we are racing in the Spa 6 Hour later this month, Emile has been painting the G16 we did for him.

We're off to the Silverstone 1000 km race this Sunday thanks to VIP passes kindly sent by the Factory. We'll probably give the long cockpit G4 an airing, somebody has to do it!

We thought we'd finished the major repairs on Steve's G15 body until we turned it over..........!

Normans G21 went off for some engine magic and we're off testing at Goodwood on Thursday prior to the Revival later in the month.

The engine is out of Spadge's G4 to nail the problem once and for all.

Oh, and the silver G4 is sold and off to Italy.

2nd September  2009  We were part of a very small team watching Nigel Mansell and his son Greg, t

With two G4s at the Goodwood Revival and Spadge sharing Emile's G4 with Mark Smith and Emile in The Spa 6 Hour Race, September looks to be an even busier month than August.

There are some developments in Japan for us.

A G4 left here for Austria recently in a very neat, purpose built transporter. Another is heading off for Italy soon.

Phil called for some advice on a G33 purchase, bought it and then turned up with it for a seal of approval and a new fan fuse.

Ian is nearing the end of a G15 restoration having just had a carpet kit. The car is a fabulous colour....

Alistair's G15 is about to live again, having come in for a lot of work and we have two G15 bodyshells awaiting restoration.

Spadge is out at Silverstone with the CSCC at Silverstone on Saturday. Recent engine problems were found to be a combination of a porous inlet manifold, dodgy £100 head gasket and a melted ignition module!
