Wow! Can you believe it? Two years ago today, NINEAUTO opened for business! Back then it was just Stuart and I rattling around in a very spacious workshop.
Fast forward 2 years and Stuart is now ably assisted by Ronny and Edward on the tools, whilst Robyn is my ‘wing woman’ on the admin front. Our once spacious workshop now feels much more ‘cosy’! The packed workshop has emerged into an Aladdin’s Den of Porsches from every decade… leaving many visitors perusing the workshop like a kid in a Candy Store.
The speed at which we’ve grown doesn’t happen without lots of support and encouragement from the sidelines. A huge thank you to Gordon our IT guru, Roger our automotive researcher extraordinaire and Vanessa – Stuart’s very understanding wife. We’d also like to thank our network of customers for their wonderful assistance in promoting NINEAUTO… by referring friends, family and colleagues our business has evolved into a community of passionate Porsche enthusiasts.
Since opening, the monthly mailer has helped us share the Porsche passion, with the swapping of stories, tips and Porsche paraphernalia. A big thank you to our regular contributors to the mailer, David James, Peter Bosland, Robbo (Ian Roberts) and Tim Rout.
Back in March we put a call out through the mailer, requesting your Porsche pics to help us update the website… we received lots of amazing shots, which made choosing really tough. In the end, shot selection was mainly driven by the dimensions of the pics, and the way they looked with the overlaid website text. We’ve now updated the images on the NINEAUTO website… removing all the stock library images and replaced them with pics of our customers’ cars. We love making the cars we work on the stars of our business, and think these new images look sensational.
Once again thanks for everyone’s support in building NINEAUTO and making our first 2 years so enjoyable (and busy)!
