Escape Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 I just read the sad news on The Lotus Forums. I don't know if Paul was active on here, but I'm sure many of us ordered parts from him when building a Rover V8. That's how I met him... He used to work at Lotus, probably built the chassis of my Esprit at the time. Then he started his own company building and tuning (Rover) V8 engines. He helped me buy my current Range Rover and build the engine for the project P38. I knew he was in the hospital after a heart attack, and recovery wasn't going well. But I optimistically assumed he would pull through... My thoughts go out to Pat and the rest of his family. Filip 😞 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bowie69 Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Very sad, he's helped me lot in the past, for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I've definitely bought bits from him, certainly seemed a helpful and decent chap. RIP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted June 23, 2020 Author Share Posted June 23, 2020 A bit of good news: Pat, Paul's wife is continuing his business (after fighting off the lawyers etc). I've just placed my first order, I'm sure she needs all the help she can get as it has been a very though year so far. And I'm very happy to get quality parts at a correct price (unlike from some other vendors). Filip 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escape Posted March 25, 2021 Author Share Posted March 25, 2021 Pat has got the new site online: https://www.v8tuning.co.uk/ I wish her the best of luck, it wont be easy without Paul's vast technical knowledgde. If, like most on here, you know what you need/want, you're sure to get a good deal. 😉 Filip  3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
