Micro Metalsmiths is fast and furious for Spyker
NORTH Yorkshire based Micro Metalsmiths has successfully developed and manufactured a specialist fuel cap for luxury car manufacturer Spyker.
The fuel cap, which features Spyker’s distinctive company emblem – an aircraft propeller and a wire wheel – took less than eight weeks to deliver and will feature on all production cars.
Spyker opted for Kirkbymoorside-based Micro Metalsmiths because the company could deliver a product that meets the high exacting standards that are synonymous with the prestige Dutch car manufacturer.
It is not the first project that Micro Metalsmiths has carried out for Spyker having previously also developed other components including tailor made air vents.
The vents were also designed with the company’s distinctive propeller emblem within a wheel.
Steve Parkin, director at Micro Metalsmiths, said, “We are extremely pleased to be supplying such essential parts to a prestigious international car brand. Our on site facilities mean we can consistently deliver high quality cost effective solutions, on time and on budget to our customers around the world”
Frans Liebregts, chief operating officer of Spyker Cars, added: “Spyker Cars is very pleased to have Micro Metalsmiths as their supplier for one of the eye-catching features of their cars – the fuel cap.
“The quality of the products supplied, demonstrates that Micro Metalsmiths understands the requirements of Spyker’s customers.”
The Spyker C8 Aileron, Spyker’s latest production model, recently made its North American debut at the New York International Auto Show 2009.
