Meet The Sevens & Classics Team

Andy worked for Caterham Cars from the mid-’80s, having graduated with an honours degree in Mechanical Engineering. He was recruited at the age of 23 as the company’s 14th employee and was appointed as a Company Director at the age of 27 before going on to head up the Sales and Marketing function of the Company. Andy was responsible for the creation of, among others, the Caterham JPE, the Caterham Classic, the Caterham Academy race package and the world-beating R500. Having raced Caterhams back in the 90s, including taking part in the Nurburgring 24hr race, Andy is a keen motorsport fan, both on two and four wheels.

Sue started her career as a bookkeeper for Alfa Romeo and she continued to work in this field until she left to start her family. Once her children became of school age, Sue started a new career in education where she continued to work for the next 20 years. Now Sue has returned to her roots and keeps us all on our toes when it comes to the company bookkeeping, office administration as well as cleaning up after the boys! She runs a tight ship and makes sure it’s all plain sailing!

Sue enjoys keeping fit in the gym and looking after the rest of us!

In charge of the workshop, there is little, if anything, that Brian does not know about the Caterham Seven or most other cars and bikes for that matter. Having worked for Ferrari and Porsche specialists, Caterham race teams and Caterham Cars to name a few. if you choose to leave your car with Sevens & Classics, you can rest assured it’s in the best possible hands.

Brian is a mad keen motorcyclist and can be seen riding to and from work most days on his beloved Triumph motorcycle.

Claire started her working life in hairdressing but made a career move when she joined the parts department of Caterham Cars in 1994. She then took a sabbatical to raise her son, Jake, before becoming a tea blending expert for a leading specialist tea company. Like Sue, Claire has now returned to her roots and looks after the parts department at Sevens and Classics. She also joins forces with Sue when attempting to keep all the Sevens and Classics boys in line and looks after Herbie, Head of Security!

Claire enjoys motorcycling, crafts, and is currently mastering the art of stand-up paddle boarding.

Andy has spent many years working in the automotive body repair and valeting industry. For the last 7 years, Andy managed Caterham Cars valeting department, keeping their showroom and cars spic and span. He has now brought his wealth of knowledge and experience to Sevens & Classics, enabling us to improve our customer service by ensuring that every one of the cars we supply is looking their very best. Yet another extremely valuable member of the family!

Andy is a keen photographer and has a very active Instagram account for anyone who would care to look.

Ewan is our newest recruit, fresh from passing his apprenticeship in Motor Vehicle Service and Maintenance. Ewan is a great classic car enthusiast and in his spare time, he can be found restoring his 1988 Mk2 Polo Coupe S or helping his Dad out with his classic Mk1 Golf GTi. He can also be found lapping Brands Hatch and other circuits, in his track prepared MG ZR.

Len looks after most of our deliveries and collections, either in our purpose built enclosed truck or our covered trailor. Len has a history with the automotive industry going back 50 years and has worked in the past as the Service Manager at Caterham Cars and Sales Engineer at Quaife Transmissions. He’s a passionate Millwall supporter and has a unique talent for talking. If he wasn’t a stand up comedian in his previous life, I’m sure he will be in his next.

Many think he’s too young for the role, but Herbie heads up Sevens & Classics Security. He can often be seen patrolling the grounds making sure all is in order, and always checking out our customers prior to welcoming them on board.

Herbie likes eating and sleeping.
