 CUSTOMER TESTIMONIALS... In 2004 my son Douglas and I purchased a racing Aston Martin DB2/4 Mark 1. David Reed helped us sort out the brakes and kindly came to a Goodwood track day to give hands on instruction. We were then able to start racing in the AMOC series. David changed the front drum brakes to discs and made it more streamlined while still able to keep it in the basic A1 competition class. In this car, Douglas won the AMOC UBS Historic and overall racing competition in 2007 after only two seasons of racing. In 2005 we bought an additional mark 2 which developed brake and fuel supply problems and severe engine failure. During 2006 David gradually sorted out all the problems, made it lighter and more competitive and gave us great racing in 2007. Doug and I, along with Colin Campbell took part in the 50s Team event, the DB Devils, and came third overall in the competition - the leading Aston team in the competition. David helps us with transport to the race meetings and provides constant mechanical support for our two cars. He has even driven to our house on his motor bike (100 miles each way) to carry out emergency repairs and keep us racing. He has ideas for the further development of the mark 2's axle ratios which may allow Douglas to be the leading car in the A3 moderately modified class in the 2008 season. When you are dealing with Davron, you are tapping into an huge wealth of racing experience enjoyed by the Reed family over many years.
Dr Graham Barker and Dr Douglas Barker AMOC family membership F/19730 Thank you again for "a new car"! Not only polished and tooth brush tickled to showroom condition - now the car is how I wanted it to be since I bought it seven years ago .... I am really impressed with the new handling, the remarkable improved torque characteristic of the engine and the dramatically increased braking potential. On the "Autobahn" at true (GPS) speed of 145 km/h you can drive the car with one hand - without any problems. The changes are quite impressive and I am very glad about them!
Now it is a real joy to play with this wonderful toy - after some years of
real frustration ... Thank you again.

David and Ron set my 2/4 Mk1 up properly soon after I bought it. They then prepared it for the 1999 LeJog, on which we won the Best Beginners’ Trophy, in no small part due to the fact that the car performed faultlessly. It is a pleasure to deal with people who know these sometimes idiosyncratic cars backwards and David and Ron have been very helpful in both preparing the car for the 2000 LeJog and giving advice on how to get the best out of the car whilst not overstraining it. Personal service with a difference!

"David and Ron at Davron have given me the best service I have ever received from a garage. What has really impressed me is that they manage to mix the correct blend of professionalism with genuine enthusiasm for Aston Martins and offer a quality service but at a realistic price. They maintain my 1980 Oscar India. I have no hesitation in giving them a 100% personal recommendation."

David and Ron have undertaken repairs and maintainance to my Aston Martin DB 2/4 Mark III ever since they started Davron in 1998. The car is used at AMOC sprint and hillclimb events in the standard "Feltham" class and frequently in the Historic Sports car class. It has been a consistant winner and holds many standard class records. Davron's attention to detail and particularly to matters of safety is essential for such activity. I value highly their friendly professionalism and knowledge, particularly on the motor sport side. Their charges are reasonable and work ordered is clearly understood and carried out promptly. David and Ron have my highest personal recommendation.
