Chris Marsh
With some 50 years in the automotive industry there is barely a make of car that Chris hasn’t repaired, rebuilt or raced. As scion of the Marcos marque, Chris has an outstanding track record of technical excellence as engineer & mechanic, race team principle, supercar manufacturing and he’s a pretty fast race driver too having raced at and finished Le Mans 24hrs.
Chris Marsh Classics is his eponymous classic car business - where he brings his lifetime of experience to help anyone with any marque of car. If you want to improve your drive and set up on your classic race car, there is no-one better qualified. He’s also never defeated by anything requiring fabrication or a “Marshy-fix” as there is nothing that Chris can't solve.

The Team
Dave Amor: has been working in the automotive industry for over 35 years, named as “the engine guru” by Practical Classics. Having started as a trainee working on classic cars in Bradford on Avon, Dave branched out into conventional modern marques. He brings a wealth of experience on modern cars and leads on all Land Rover and Range Rover services. Dave joined Chris Marsh Classics in 2022.
Dominic Dent: has been working with CMC since 2022 as trainee engineer. He works with Chris and Dave on a range of marques, and has developed a real expertise on fibreglass work. Dom is passionate about Formula 1 and also now classic car racing too.
Del Whitaker: is our resident bodywork prep and paint expert. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100057294286425
Del is based in Bath but works out of CMC regularly.
Edwin Evans: is the co-founder of CMC, and the rock on which CMC has grown. Responsible for the workshop fit-out and the grounds and so much more, Edwin is a co-owner of the Marcos LM1800, affectionately known as “Duckface”.
Lesley Davies: in charge of accounts and admin and generally keeping us all under control. Lesley is a brilliant bookkeeper and so much more - she’s a huge Formula 1 fan with a weakness for McLaren & Lando is her number 1 man
Sarah Milne: is co-founder of CMC and works in the office with Lesley whilst running her Energy Transition businesses. She used to be totally indifferent to cars but was transformed by her first visit to Le Mans Classic at 2am….
Ben Huxtable: was the original employee who not only helped with the fit-out of the workshop when we moved here in 2019, but also helped get CMC off the ground. He now works as a consultant with Nine Feet Tall, but comes back from time to time to act as Team Principal to organise the race team, whether at Snetterton, Le Mans or more.
