RMS Regular
Thanks to Andy for setting us up.
Let me take a minute to introduce willswheels.
Our first day of trading was June 27th, 2011. Rapid expansion meant we moved premises to our current location in May 2012 and have since extended to two further satellite sites. We started out solely breaking / dismantling old BMWs, but after a few years of that we were being offered cars too good, too valuable, too rare, to kill off and so we started the restoration and sales side of the business.
At the minute that is the primary focus and further down I'll post some pictures of some of the cars we've worked on over the last three or so years.
We've kept up a high stock level of old and rare parts, and for many older BMW models we are the sole source of spares in Ireland, sometimes all of the UK, and for one particular model, the world. We've sourced and bought up spares from all over the place, including large collections of cars and parts - May 2017 saw us bring 6.5 E30 cars and two LWB van loads up from Laois; in August 2017 we bought a four-car collection with a similar haul of spares, and in October 2018 we incorporated the stock of Border Motor Works into our inventory.
Many of you will know the owner Will (OK yes it's me that's typing this), but there is also a great team here as well. Generally on the phones you'll get the other Will, yes, really, or sometimes Ali. Also there's a grumpy old man in the workshop called Stevie but we don't let him talk to customers any more.
So this business has grown and it's hard to keep on top of just everything that we do now. We're still supplying used parts - our stock goes into the deep recesses of several large units. We buy in restoration projects - currently well over 30 on the waiting list - and undertake pretty much all aspects of work on them. In terms of customer work we do light mechanical stuff and some electrical. We don't do customer bodywork though. Engine conversions have been a staple for the last couple of years, with many an old BMW coming out of the workshop 75-100 bhp better off. We also refurbish wheels for sale, rebuild engines to sell occasionally, and, maybe too often, get in way over our heads with projects nobody else would agree to. I'll post up some of the videos we've made of various project cars we've worked on.
If there's any questions of queries feel free to PM, leave a comment or ring on either number - 07749520510 or 07840500520. We're located just off the M1 (junction 14), near Dungannon, and really we are just here to help.
