Lee:

Lee has had a passion for cars from an early age being introduced by his father Steve. It was very early on in Lee’s life that Steve saw his full potential. Spending weekends down his dad’s garage paying an interest and lending a hand whilst Steve was working, he too was a mechanic so it was no wonder Lee picked up the tools quickly. Lee started building his own cars with the assistance of his dad driving them round the back of the garage. It wasn’t long before Lee was attending collage and working at an independent garage gaining the knowledge and experience he needed to become qualified. Keen to stamp his mark on his car he would change the wheels and stance of the car and it wasn’t long before he was stripping the engine down and rebuilding them to his specification. Lee continued his qualification gaining a level 4 technician with advanced technical knowledge and skills in the automotive industry. Along with being ATA accredited he also worked his way up to a qualifying as a Bosch master technician in an independent garage and to further his experience Lee worked in a Honda in a dealership

Hobbies are Cars, Cars and more Cars along with anything that has an engine. Weekends are spent with the family, winter time football with Jake and Summers are spent on the boat or jet ski.

Kate:

Kate has been a fan of cars from her teenage years, getting involved with her dad tinkering with his car but her passion for car’s came much later when she was learning to drive, she couldn’t wait to get behind the wheel and feel the freedom driving gave her. Enjoying cars as much as she did, she started to attend car meets and it was due to attending these how she came to meet Lee, Stockley park cruise. Fast forward 20 years Lee and Kate are married with a family and the rest they say is history. Meeting Lee enabled Kate to delve more into the understanding of how a car works and she became hooked. Changing her career to the motor industry allowed Kate to focus more on her passion for cars further and it wasn’t long before she worked for a very successful and prestigious brand Mercedes -Benz for over 14 years. Working as an account manager then onto a Dealership working her way up to a service team leader, Kate was able to work closely with the technicians and customers to get a  good idea of what both sides of the desks looked like. With her training and knowledge their dream was brought to fruition and together they created L&J Vehicle Specialist. Running the business alongside Lee Her passion for exemplary customer service along with transparency is at the forefront of her mind. Focussing on how a woman feels approaching a garage. Ensuring each woman that walks into their garage is empowered to make decisions based on a good understanding of the fault in hand with no scrutiny or shame due to gender.

Hobbies running around after the kids, horse riding & football, on the boat on the river or the jet skis down the sea catching up with friends.
