/in , /by

Ace ATV and ATVS Only merge: Ace ATV has merged with ATVS Only, the UK’s leading ATV and quad after-market parts suppliers. Based in Newton Purcell, Buckingham, ATVS Only distributes nationally and internationally and is the only dedicated importer and distributor specialising in parts and accessories for the Sports ATV industry, including side-by-side UTVs and sports quad performance requirements.

With completion of this merger, the company will become a division of Ace ATV, the specialist ATV supplier based in the West Midlands, with over 100 years of combined experience in the agricultural machinery trade. Ace Managing Director Murray Boss, himself an agricultural engineer, was the founder of Ace ATV before he moved on to start ATVS Only (previously R&P ATV) with Peter Rumsey in 2005. Following the merger on the 31st of March 2025, the ATVS Only business will continue as usual, he says, with the same staff, premises and contact details.

Reputation

“ATVS Only has built a reputation over 35 years as the leading after-market parts supplier,” says Murray, “and the people and staff are totally committed to the ATV industry, with experience dating back to the late 1980s when Pete started supplying Race quad accessories. What we will do is expand the business from its solid base with the introduction of more utility products and manufacturers’ OE parts for ATVs and UTVs to create a one-stop parts depot.” Originally trade only, ATVS Only expanded into retail while maintaining supplies to dealers with a separate portal for ordering trade parts.

“We have been in talks with many of the world’s leading manufacturers.” Murray says. “Ace ATV are already official dealers for Yamaha, Kawasaki, Kymco, Corvus, CanAm and Logic, with 18 years Polaris experience, and a vast stock of spare parts for repairs and servicing. Bringing the two sides together, the expansion will harmonise the stock with far more items, including OE parts, held in the UK for fast and efficient delivery, usually arriving within one to two working days.”

Corvus appoints Ark ATV

/in , /by

Corvus appoints Ark ATV: Somerset ATV dealer Ark ATV has joined the Corvus Off-Road-Vehicle network. The announcement was made by BOSS ORV, the UK Corvus distributor, whose Managing Director, Phil Everett, has previously worked with Ark director Rob Blomfield-Richards.

“I am delighted to be reunited with him and his team, as I know how professional they are and what fantastic support they offer to their customers,” says Phil.

ARK ATV Ltd has been family-owned and operated since 1997, supplying farmers and other workers with high-quality ATVs from their Minehead area base. BOSS ORV’s National Sales Manager, Neil Everett, has also known Rob and the team for many years and says he has seen them demonstrate extremely high customer service levels and a great understanding of the working ATV/UTV market. They will cover the area across Somerset and North Devon.

Neil says, “with their current line-up lacking a UTV and us requiring coverage in such a strong area for UTV sales, it seemed almost natural for us to open up discussions regarding the Corvus franchise.”

Ark will sell and support the Corvus Terrain ranges of diesel and electric UTVs. BOSS say they are extremely pleased to have such a longstanding, credible ATV/UTV specialist added to their dealer network. They believe Ark ATV will provide the highest standard of sales and aftercare support for all new and existing customers within the area. For Ark, becoming Corvus dealers gives them access to the full Corvus range, and allows them to cater to their customers’ needs by providing true commercial work ATVs, both diesel and electric. BOSS add that not only are they extremely pleased to have them on board, but they are also very much looking forward to working with Rob and Ark MD, James Westwood, in the coming years.
