Specialist care for the classic cars you love
Servicing, diagnostics and mechanical repair for classic Mercedes, VW campers, Alfa Romeo, and British sports cars. One specialist with twenty years in the trade, working on a handful of cars at a time, so every job is diagnosed before it is quoted, and nothing is rushed to clear the ramp.
A workshop for classic car owners who want more than a quick fix
VK Classics looks after classic cars the way they were meant to be: with time, care, and real mechanical understanding. Every job starts with a proper diagnosis and ends with a road test.
We focus on classic Mercedes SL models and VW T2 and T4 campers, Alfa Romeos, air-cooled Beetles and Porsches, classic Jaguars, and other British sports cars. Whether the car needs a small adjustment or a deeper investigation, we explain everything clearly- no jargon, no pressure.
Services
Everything from routine servicing to detailed diagnostics, carried out in one workshop by one specialist.
Servicing & Maintenance
Scheduled work carried out with parts and methods suited to the car, not the nearest modern equivalent.
Mechanical Repairs
From a single seized fastener to a full engine out. Diagnosed first, quoted second, repaired properly.
Engine Tuning & Setup
Ignition, fuelling and carburettor balancing, set up on the road rather than left on a printout.
Upgrades & Sympathetic Modifications
Electronic ignition, cooling, brakes and comfort, chosen so the car still feels like itself.
Diagnostics & Fault-finding
The old-school way, backed by the right tools. We find the cause before anyone reaches for a part.
Pre-MOT Checks
A full inspection before test day, with a written list of what needs doing and what can wait.
Car, Campervan & Motorbike Storage
Dry, secure, monitored storage with the car started, moved and checked while you are away.
Twenty years of engines, and one idea
We treat every vehicle as if it were our own, taking the time to understand your vision and delivering results that exceed expectations.
Vladimir began as a mechanic at eighteen and became a foreman at a classic car workshop. Later he ran the floor at Clydesdale Classic Cars in East Kilbride. VK Classics is the part that was missing: working directly with owners and their cars.
Diagnose first. Quote second. Repair properly.
We look before we quoteNothing is replaced on a hunch. You get the cause, in writing, before any work starts.
Parts suited to the carCorrect specification where it matters, sensible alternatives where it does not.
One specialist, start to finishThe person who diagnosed your car is the person who fixes it.
Road tested before collectionEvery car leaves having been driven, not just started.
Reviewed by classic car owners
Every review is left by a customer whose car has been through the workshop.
