Sovereign Cars in Association with Larry's Customs

I recently paid a visit to Sovereign Car Sales with my daughter Maddi. 

Sovereign Car Sales is an interesting show room sited in Whitchurch Hampshire.

It's owner, Larry Webb is a life long petrol head. 

Below is a photo of Larry outside his showroom taken from his website.

 At the age of 15, Larry started his apprenticeship as a mechanic under the guidance of Chris Lawrence of Lawrencetune under the Hammersmith railway arches. Chris Lawrence made a name for himself by winning the 2 litre class at Le Mans driving a Morgan in 1962.

After working at Lawrencetune, Larry then moved onto buying and selling cars and in 1999, bought a showroom in Whitchurch, completely renovated it and added a 2000 foot extension at the rear so that more cars could be sold. The end result is is stunning showroom that looks amazing at every angle.  A black and white checkerboard floor and black walls compliments the neon lights and grey roofing.

And then there's the cars. Larry did not want everyday cars as the there is a lot of competition. Larry said "you can go anywhere and buy a Ford Focus or a Ford Fiesta but you can't with the cars I sell".

Having had a warm welcome from Larry and his wife Judy who also works in the showroom and other family members that were visiting, it was time for Maddi and me to take a look around the cars and take some photos

The cars are photoed below

The below cars are AC Cobra replicas made by AK Sportscars and Dax. They look similar but all have something different to offer the driver. Larry got hooked on these cars when he was offered one in the 1980's, since then he has sold hundreds of these cars.
