we are finally moving to our new global dominating superbranch this weekend, so the Harrogate shop is shut Friday/Saturday.

York will be open Monday, same phone number as before.


the carpark has already been christened with oil drips.....

That's pretty much closer to your shed, isn't it?!

Hope everything goes well Rich.

The next few days are going to involve some very hard work.

I look forward to visiting the new place when you are back up & running.

It's always nice to start out in a new building with nice fixtures. I understand about oil spotted lot. Enjoy, the roof will leak before you know it. Steve (CTR)

Good luck Rich!

Will the 1st customer of new shop get a prize?

Jens, Rich don't drink..... he said!

As someone who goes to the pub with Rich at least twice a week I can confirm that he doesn't drink & even when he tries he fails

after a blur of 14-16 hour days where we all managed to seriously over work, we are in!

the Harrogate shop is no more

its an empty bare building, which is getting painted next week ready for its new tenants


we will always be 'Harrogate', just we are now in York

the new building is beautiful, big, loads of space, proper warehouse dock, new (to us) orange forklift, we will be keeping loads more stock in, proper area for samples and testing, bigger car park

oh, and there is a café round the corner

Who are going to spend the next 10 years telling people that they aren't Minispares

There are usually some left over parts in BMC/Leyland boxes in close-down dealer! Who is going with me?

I had a huge 'we are moving sign' made and tiestrapped it to the window, I just told the new tenants to take it down when ever they wanted to - so it will be up to them!

Yep new place looks fab - enough space for a Maguire in the corner.

Will make a point of dropping in for a visit next time I'm in Yorkshire. Any pics available in the meantime to whet our appetites?

Explains why you have been so quiet on the Emails

New building looks great.

You got the sign then. Hope they've turned the heating down for you now.
