“RPS were with me from the very start, sourcing a car , handling the rebuild to rally spec and providing spares support along the way. They have clearly vast experience with these type of cars which are so suited to the harsh conditions of the Peking to Paris route. I couldn’t have done it without them”
Tim Wilkinson, Peking to Paris Competitor 2010
“RPS prepared for participation in Peking to Paris 2010. Simon and his team were a pleasure to work with ‘Benson’ a vintage Buick, their knowledge of what is required for an endurance rally event proved invaluable. A list of works was agreed upon and the car was ready in good time for shipping to China. The car finished the event with only a handful of small issues that you would expect to encounter on an event like Peking to Paris, I would not hesitate to recommend RPS.”
Jeff Urbina, Flying Scotsman 2016
“We have been long time and repeat customers of RPS and are on our third build with Simon and his team. We sought them out several years ago due to their expertise in building and prepping cars for endurance rallies. We have not been disappointed! RPS is knowledgeable about what works and what doesn’t for these events and they have been invaluable to us in our planning. We have used RPS to both build and prep our cars”
Neil Lawson-May, Peking to Paris Competitor 2016
“The RPS engineers are on all the rallies themselves. When they are building your car they know what it’s going to go through because they’ve done it already.”
