Lancia Montecarlo S2 coupe
October 2020
Another Lancia Montecarlo! This remarkable barn find is completely original and rust free.

We have sourced a new instrument cluster, new head lights, new engine and gearbox.
Lancia Montecarlo S2 spider
Very light restoration complete on this Lancia Montecarlo S2 spider. Just 30,000 miles in completely original and rust free condition. Our next project is also a Montecarlo – an S2 coupe which will be rebuilt with a host of new parts (engine/gearbox/interior etc).

Mclaren MP4 12C
September 2017
Not our usual bread and butter cars at Barnside Motors Maidenhead, but we’re always willing and able to work on more exotic vehicles. It did however take us a little while to figure out how to open the door (electronic hand swipe that needs the outside of the door to be dry..).
