Quick’s team did a lovely job of fitting four period chrome-buckled belts in a colour that matches the Rapide’s cream seats

Making my way home, I was pleased to find how much more comfortable the new belt felt and, best of all, I felt safer ina car that had been manufactured in an age when ‘airbag’ was a dirty word.

The company is one of the most experienced in the business and has fitted bespoke safety belts to most popular classics as well as many coachbuilt cars.

Belt specialist Quickfit made up some lovely new period seatbelts!
