We specialise in the sale, maintenance, restoration and modification of classic Volkswagens and Porsche.
Having built numerous award-winning vehicles for clients around the world, you can trust us to source the vehicle of your dreams and undertake a bespoke restoration project to your exact specification.
Take a look at our showroom where you’ll find, hand picked, some of the finest examples of the marques whether it’s modified or super low mileage factory original. Our stock is always changing so make sure you follow us on our socials for updates and if there’s something specific you’re looking for let us know.
Type 2 Detectives is run by Paul Medhurst who founded the company in 1992, supported by an outstanding team of technicians.
Based close to Cambridge, we are easily accessible from all over the UK or internationally via Standstead airport.
You will have seen many of our builds in the press and on TV, like Octane, Volksworld, Camper & Bus, Type 7 and Hayburner, plus many other global publications.
Our latest work mainly features on our instagram grid and what better showcase than our YouTube series T2DTV where you’ll get unfiltered behind the scenes access to not only our day to day work but some of our more challenging yet rewarding builds, road trips, interviews and events.
