For many years, XK have been working closely with auto manufacturers helping to facilitate advanced concept car design projects. Concept Car design teams choose XK Engineering for paint finishing because of their long standing experience in coating and painting non-production manufacture body parts.

Unlike mass production bodies, the paintable surface of concept car panels can vary enormously. The challenge here is to produce a high lustre finish and give the car that "motorshow" finish for which all manufacturers strive. When Loades undertook the Isuzu Zen project, there was only one company in the frame for the paint finishing - XK Engineering.

As highly qualified professionals within this specialised industry seeking other like minded companies as project partners is second nature. A specialist vehicle requires attention to detail both inside & out. For the interior, Anderson & Ryan have helped to develop and trim many of the most stunning and innovative vehicle interiors, many unveiled at the world's motor shows, both XK and A & R work together with designers, advising manufacturers and styling studios on production issues & tolerances, and manufacture contemporary solutions using traditional & space age materials and paints. Whether working as part of a project consortium, or project managing your aspirations, XK Engineering have the expertise and industry understanding to finish your project on time and within budget.

Planning & preporation are the key to a successful project - XK were delighted when Jaguar Heritage asked if it was possible to paint a Jubilee comemorative vehicle - the XK8 proved a great success - seen in all the right places.
