We are

L.A. MotorSport…

It began more than seven years ago, born from grease-stained hands and a shared driveway. What started as a hobby—and often a necessity—tinkering with my own GSi replica and my father’s Lotus Carlton, soon became an obsession. I didn’t know it then, but those long afternoons under the hood were the blueprint for something much bigger.

In 2023, I decided to turn that lifelong passion into a purpose. It was a no-brainer: I wanted to use everything I’d learned to keep these rare, precious machines where they belong—on the road.
Today, L.A. MotorSport is a true family affair. Supported by my own family, who each play a vital role in our daily operations.

We aren't just a shop; we’re a family-run powerhouse built on the grit of old-school values. We believe in work that speaks for itself, prices that make sense, and total transparency with our community.
You aren’t just a customer to us; you’re part of our "garage family.”

While we’ve earned our reputation as specialists in the Lotus and Vauxhall Carlton world, our devotion doesn't stop there. We live for the "old-skool" modified and performance legends. Most recently, a new addition to our family—an R34 Nissan Skyline named Bibby—has led us into the vibrant world of the JDM scene.

The eras may change, but the passion remains the same.

Hi, I’m Leone’s girlfriend and right-hand lady. I bring 7 years of CAD and 3 years of Graphic Design experience to the garage, but I’m happy getting stuck into any project and challenge that comes through the door! I truly enjoy being part of our community and making sure every person who walks through the door feels valued - plus I make a cracking cuppa!!

    Hello, I’m Leone’s dad and the inspiration behind L.A. MotorSport. My practical experience is vast, developed over a lifetime dedicated to owning and meticulously maintaining Lotus Carltons - in fact I’ve owned X amount. I love being the reliable extra pair of hands whenever things get busy, making sure the garage runs like a well-oiled machine.

    It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more.

  • Mo-Bear

    I’m the garage cat, Leone and Han’s fur baby. I enjoy fulfilling a life of cuteness, many naps and just out-right chaos. My star role is to meet and greet all of the nice people that bring in their cars to the garage - I accept all treats, cuddles and compliments. In my spare time my main hobby is annoying my kitty sister - Missy Moo and destroying the house with my super zoomies!

    And yes that photo is a cat (although hard to believe !)
