Customer Spotlight

At Poole Accident Repair, we’re proud to support an incredible variety of motorists, from everyday drivers to passionate collectors of classic and historic vehicles. Today, we’re celebrating one of our long-standing customers whose motoring achievements are nothing short of extraordinary.

A record-breaking journey around the globe

Many years ago, Mr Weir became the first person in history to drive a historic sports car around the world in just 80 days, setting a remarkable new world record!

The journey was nothing short of monumental

Crossing four continents and driving through 22 countries, it became the longest rally ever completed in the history of the car, and the first timed circumnavigation of the globe for a magnificent collection of 40 classic, historic and vintage vehicles.

It was a true feat of endurance, engineering, and passion for motoring heritage, proving not only the capabilities of the cars, but the commitment and resilience of the individuals behind the wheel.

A customer relationship built on trust and expertise

We’re honoured that someone with such extensive experience behind the wheel continues to choose Poole Accident Repair to look after their pride and joy, an impressive Mercedes-Maybach SL 680 Monogram Series.

Our team have proudly completed work on Mr Weir’s vehicle, delivering the high-quality craftsmanship and attention to detail that both modern luxury cars and classic models deserve. Whether it’s precision bodywork, careful paint refinishing or expert accident repair, we take the time to ensure every vehicle receives the standard of care it deserves.

His trust means a great deal to us, especially given his deep appreciation for engineering excellence and the history of classic motoring.
