H.R. Owen receives Classiche certification

H.R. Owen Ferrari Service Centre in London has been officially recognised by the Italian marque to become only the ninth authorised Classiche workshop in the UK.

The centre was recently granted the accreditation by Ferrari, allowing it to implement the Classiche certification process to provide the correct maintenance and repair of Ferraris more than 20 years old.

Authorised Classiche workshops offer a highly qualified service to ensure that a vehicle’s Classiche certification is maintained and that the car’s technical heritage, as well as its value, is preserved.

The Service Centre’s new title of ‘Officina’ (Italian for ‘workshop’) puts it among the best regarded classic Ferrari maintenance centres in the UK, and means it’s perfectly placed to offer customers a Maranello approved service. The site itself boasts 25,000 square feet dedicated t the Italian marque, including 22 ramps and 15 specialist technicians, two of which are dedicated solely to classics work. At any given time, the garage also has £500,000 of official Ferrari parts in stock.

“It gives us great pleasure to be accredited as a Classiche Officina and further enhance our already excellent reputation in the classic car world,” commented Owen Rothwell, H.R. Owen Ferrari marketing manager.  “Being able to have the direct support of the Classiche department in Maranello means that H.R. Owen can continue to offer exemplary classic Ferrari servicing with the ultimate seal of approval from Italy. We’re excited to put our new strategy into practice and continue to give our customers the level of care they expect from both H.R. Owen and Ferrari.”
