Big News from VelocityAP

Hi Everyone,

Been a little quiet lately, but have some big news to announce and wanted to share it with my AM family first. Despite some pretty sizeable roadblocks that have been thrown up along the way, by making some big personal sacrifices, we were able to move on a big, big opportunity this summer.

Things have been moving along nicely in the last year or so. Up until now we have been doing most of our manufacturing in-house at Top Gear's home base in Bridport, UK. However, as things have grown and Top Gear has become busier in their own right, it became increasingly challenging to manage our production and to continue to grow.

On July 1st, along with my business partner Steve Kilcoyne from Top Gear in the UK, we partnered up with experienced exhaust manufacturer Mark Brown and purchased Guaranteed Exhaust Systems in Devon. (www.gsexhausts.co.uk)

Was a big commitment, and had to double down to make it happen but it is the next 'Big Step' in growing the company.

  • We now have our own dedicated manufacturing facility, which comes with its own set of trade customers.
  • We now have a huge range of classic car patterns/jigs/exhaust systems, including Aston Martin!
  • We are now the original equipment exhaust manufacturer for Morgan Sportscars
  • We are now ISO 9001 Registered


Some big challenges for the next 3-4 months. We have already taken over the adjacent unit to expand our capacity and shop space. But it feels very good to be moving in such a positive direction and spending our energy on productive endeavours!

Well Deserved Stuart! Keep us posted on product development or post links to anything up and coming. I have lots of plans for the car and as my home construction draws to a close, there are lots of parts on my wish list that I can again begin to collect!

Congrats on this! Love your stuff and the service?, top notch. Maybe now you will be able to jump into the RS5 market as well, fill the void! Exhaust, intakes, cats, rotors, etc. I'm just sayin...
