Pugsley & Lewis was set up in 1989 by Martin Pugsley and Tim Lewis in a small unit in Brixton, London. Martin and Tim met as apprentices at Aston Martin garage RS Williams in the 1970s. Together they worked on and helped rebuild some of the marque's rarest and most prestigious models, including DBR1s, DBR2s project car 212, many DB4 GTs and Zagatos including 2VEV as well as the all conquering lightweight DB4 racers. One of the last jobs was building the sanction 2 Zagato rolling chassis. Martin was particularly involved in the World Endurance championship cars i.e. Aston Martin Nimrod, Ecurie Ecosse to name but a couple that we have run from RS Williams throughout the 1970s and 80s.

In 1989 with RS Williams' blessing the pair branched out on their own. Since then they have restored and maintained cars for Aston Martin owners all over the world.

They both had a strong passion for cars from a very early age. Tim has a collection of classic and other interesting cars, including a V8 Vantage and a DB6 Volante. Club racing Alfa Romeos since 1991 with many victories. Tims racing experience makes him uniquely qualified to detect and assess problems during road tests.

To experts like Martin and Tim, how a car handles, sounds and feels on driving, reveals as much and usually more than any computerised equipment. Together they have the know-how to make the subtle adjustments needed for you to get the most out of your Aston Martin.

The pair also share a passion for precision and a deep commitment to maintaining originality, which means your car gets the very best treatment.
