right just so everyone knows and is on the same page, I thought I would put a posting up on here for everyone to see, and so people can read it for themselves . it is with great regret that I have finally decided to call it a day at Coventry commer panels, and will sadly not be undertaking any more restoration projects for people for the foreseeable future . sadly over the last several months I have noticed a large drop in sales of panels and orders or quotes for restoration work to be undertaken on peoples vans. I understand that there is a recession on, and I partly lay this to blame, as people are struggling up and down the country just to make ends meet, however I cant just lay the blame there. what also didn't help was the heated postings made by others several months back, which has damaged in my eyes what was once a good little business, since then things have never been the same. I currently have three vans in my workshop at present , and the owners of them know who they are. I can rest assure that these vans are being worked on as we speak and will be finished of accordingly over the next few months, I just wont be taking on anymore for now. im still going to remain a regular visitor to the commer van fan web site and will keep in touch with all my true friends that I have made over the last few years. its been a difficult decision to make for me, as I had put a lot of time money and effort into building the little business up, but if people don't recommend you any more and your not making any money from it there is no point in carrying on. lastly as you might well have already seen from the home page, my web site has been closed down by admin following my request to do so, this is in preparation to fad out the business. I wish things could have turned out better and I could have been successful , but its just not to be im afraid, and like one person said not so long ago on here, why try and compete against another firm if they offer more, you only lose in the end, well I guess I have! I will try my best, and post up some more pictures of the last few vans to roll out of the workshop over the next few months, starting with fonty in a weeks time, to show how good we really were at one time, turning out really nice vans. I wont be closing my doors completely on my workshop, im just moving on shall we say to pastures new , and trying a different avenue for a while. if anyone has any comments or would like to find out more about the closure of the commer section, feel free to give me a call anytime on 07968634055.and I will gladly talk openly about it. on another subject if anyone is interested in buying the business as a going concern and thinks they can make it a success once again, feel free to call and make an offer, you never know?
