Our on site body shop is manned by professionals who will deal with everything from a scratch to full restoration of your vehicle. Tickover, Britain's favourite Ford Capri Specialist was started in 1991, by brothers Clive Tick and Angus Tick. The love of Ford Capris dates before then to 1974 when our father owned a brand new MK1. Clive, aged 9 then, vowed to own a MK1 3000GXL as his first car, and starting owning and modifying 3000GXL Capris from 18 years onwards. This instilled similar enthusiasm in younger Angus when the time came. A wealth of experience developed, eventually resulting in the setting up of Tickover. Tickover started as a specialist breaker of Capris, selling second-hand parts. However, demand to have those parts fitted was strong so the current workshop premises in Bexleyheath was moved into. This workshop has always carried out every mechanical repair possible to the Capri, including routine preventative servicing. The nature of many Capri owners requires that the car be improved over the Ford package. Tickover has strived to provide improved suspension and handling packages, and beefed-up braking systems, as well as essential go-faster goodies and larger engine options. We even went as far as a 6.2 litre V8 conversion producing 450bhp. The parts supply, still has a large second-hand contingent, but has been superceded by stock in new parts and new performance parts. We have also become a major mail order supplier throughout the U.K. and also export to many foreign climes. We obviously accept all major credit and debit cards. Tickover stocks and deals with body panels, interior trim, exterior trim, bumpers, lighting, glass etc. We have standard and performance variants of engines and engine components, exhausts, suspension springs and dampers, brake discs, calipers and linings, bushings, steering components and more. The latest chapter to the Tickover story, began in 1999, when we opened our bodyshop, with spray oven. This is managed by Andy "CAPTAIN" Powis, who worked in bodyshops, for major insurance crash repairers and main dealers for 12 years, before joining us, because he is a Ford Capri obsessive. The work carried out ranges from dent repairs to full restoration spray jobs. Andy's filler work is the best and he is the acknowledged king of the X-pack kit! Tickover gives full guarantees on parts we sell, including second-hand, and on labour on jobs we carry out. Remember, we all love Ford Capris and drive them just like you. |
