Banham Conversions

Banham Conversions was a coachbuilder and manufacturer of kit cars from the late 1970s until 2004. The company, based in Rochester, Kent, was founded by Paul Banham and started off as a coachbuilder, converting vehicles into convertibles. The company built convertible versions of high-end vehicles such as the Ferrari 400, Aston Martin DBS and V8, and the Rolls-Royce Corniche during this time.

In the 1990s, the company moved on to selling conversion kits to the general public. These were mainly based on British cars, such as the classic Mini, Austin/Rover Metro, Jaguar models and the Austin Maestro. Non-British manufacturers used for Banham kit cars included Skoda and BMW.

Kits were sold up to the mid-2000s, when the Banham Conversions ceased production of all models, splitting the company's then-current model range between two separate buyers.
