Going back to the old Banks Service Station days (BSS) that was around from the 80's - Andy and Richard went their separate ways a few years ago. Andy is still in business a few miles away doing Europas last I heard - there is definitely a website.

Richard was working from the old premises in Banks but I think had a heart attack or something similar about a year ago, not sure what happened after but I thought he was going back to work.

OK Andy Short (which was the BSS parts side of the business) is now at

www.lotusclassiccars.com


Richard Winter's website (the original Banks Service Station) is down and taken over by the looks of it.

www.banks-europa.co.uk

If you go to archive.org you can see what was there before

http://web.archive.org/web/*/www.banks-europa.co.uk/ (this is all one url for some reason it gets split on posting)

Best bet to find the latest on Richard is to join the Europa mailing lists on http://groups.yahoo.com
