TME Managing Director, Clive Taylor has been involved in motorsport since leaving school in 1979.

After joining his local motor club, he started navigating on road and stage rallies in East Anglia before going on to compete on National status rallies in the UK, overseas rallies in Belgium, France, Germany and Holland and the Lombard RAC rally

But by the beginning of 1990 his work preparing and running cars for other people had become his main focus. This eventually led to him working for GSE Motorsport Europe and M. Sport on the World rally Championship as a member of the official Ford World Rally Team.


After more than 10 years of living and working in Ireland building, preparing and running cars for a selection of clients, Clive returned to his native Suffolk in late 2016 to set up the new TME Motorsport Engineering workshops. Five years later the business had outgrown the facility at Chedburgh, so the decision was taken to move to newer and larger premises at Redgrave in Suffolk.
