Geraint Hill Car Sales

In the early 1970’s my Dad’s businesses expanded rapidly through South Wales, opening new dealerships in Hirwaun, Swansea and Haverfordwest acquiring Volkswagen, Audi, NSU, and Renault dealerships together with a Honda Motorcycle garage, where I’d spend most of my school holidays or any spare time. Cars and engines must have been in my genes as my dad loved his Jenson Interceptors with their massive V8 Chrysler engines he also had a passion for anything with a engine, he loved racing his boat a Fairy Swordsman with twin Ford Mermaid engines or flying, he owned and learned to fly a Hughes 500 Helicopter with a Rolls Royce Alison Jet engine, even now the sound of a Turbine engine starting sends a shiver down my back. My Dad was tragically killed in 1976 thereafter the businesses consolidated through the late 70’s. In 1981 at a very young age of 21 and fresh out of a tool maker apprenticeship in a local factory, Heliwells in Robertstown I took over the running of our business in Cwmbach, our ethos then was to concentrate on selling high quality low mileage cars together with exceptional after sales, something that through the years has never faltered.
