History
Hond-R started off as an idea in 1998 by Marios Christofi. By 2002, the company had started as a mainly web based and “word of mouth” company to see if there was a place in the market for us. By 2003, the company had outgrown its present premises as more and more customers needed parts fitted, dealer quality servicing and engine conversions carried out.
Its new premises were attained in Abingdon, Oxfordshire for a further year when the workload was far too great for one person. The company naturally expanded into a limited legal entity and with that a new partner as half the company was sold to Russell Taylor, an experienced technician who had worked in motorsport mechanics - engineering and vehicle body repair/paint previously, to expand the company further and be able to offer our customers with an even greater range of services, faster turn around times and a way to quality control.
In 2018 Maz sold his half of the company to Russell, who now runs the company as sole Owner/Director with Claire his wife as accounts/admin controller.
In 2019 we moved Hond-R to a bigger, newer location in Carterton, Oxfordshire. This was a natural progression in making the company more efficient and allowing more room for customers cars to be worked on.
