Definitely worth a visit.

Might be up for a trip, but to be honest their name puts me off. I envisage a bunch of 'design consultants' in red plastic framed glasses drinking Pimms.

The website does nothing to improve my expectations.

There's nothing anywhere that actually sayd what they offer, just 3 little pictures in each category with no explanation or information, except that there's a bloke there called "jerry" who holds a spanner like a 4 year old holds a spoon.

I have had a word with Adam, the guy that runs the company, and he says that most of the web effort is going into building the shop which is a huge task. From what I understand they are into everything from servicing, tuning, fabrication, fibreglass, carbon to full race builds. The facebook link is a bit more detailed. I have visited their garage and it is well worth a look.

I may well pop along

Enthusiastic because they are local.
Be interesting to see what they specialise in.

Shame they dont have a 4wd Rolling Road or mapping facilities.

Do we have a time ?

[Japqueen]

There's one really "good" place in the South West that has a 4wd rolling road.

I've read all of their own reviews on their own work and they're awesome.

[Sssline]

Sounds interesting, will try and make it, depending on the weather,.

I can only make it for 10.00-11.00...... will it be open ?
I have 2 other events that day, so time is at a premium.

[V-GOM]

The meeting is from 12.00 onwards, but if you want to look round Cre8 by all means come early, they will be open.

[LancerG]

Sorry chaps but I probably wont make it due to the timeframes

I have to be at a birthday party at 12.00.

Did I tell you about that ?
I dont remember.

Ive been on 2 days of courses now and to be honest its blown my mind a bit, its quite complicated for a part time hobby. Not sure I have the time to practice and improve

I recall it somewhere. Can't remember if it was at a meet or somewhere else on here maybe.
I did an evening course at College many years ago before the digital age, but yes it seemed quite a lot to take in then, before digital came along and no more film.
I know ps anyway through our work/business but all the same I don't personally have the time myself to take it all in.
I think I get by tbh and much better now I've got a half decent camera which helps hide some of my inexperience.

So who went in the end?... Was it any good?....Did they have a good selection of parts?....
