What we do
From a logbook service to a full build
The daily driver and the weekend car get the same care. One workshop, start to finish.
Service and repairs
Brakes, cooling, suspension, clutches and the noises you can't place. Found, explained and fixed.
Engine builds
Built in house from the bare block up, from a healthy street motor to a blown combination.
Transmission builds
Automatics and manuals built to hold the power the engine is making, not just to get by.
Fabrication
Custom brackets, mounts and pipework made in the workshop when nothing off the shelf will do.
Performance upgrades
Cams, blowers, intakes and exhausts, fitted and set up properly so the car drives as well as it sounds.
About Downlow
A proper workshop, not a tyre and lube bay
Downlow looks after the car you drive to work and the one you built in your head years ago. Servicing, engine and transmission builds and fabrication all happen under the one roof, so nothing gets sent away and nothing gets lost in between.
