Station MotorSport Ltd is a small family business, jointly run by Father and Son team, John and Jonathan with a wide range of skills and abilities. Operating from premises in the south of Leicestershire they are well positioned to offer their services across the Midlands and further.
Jonathan has been involved with cars, modifications and performance work since he has been able to reach the spanners in the toolbox. Jonathan gained a Motorsport and Performance Engineering qualification (including CAD, Welding etc) and after working for a few companies as a CAD technician, it was a logical step to set up the company in 2009, initial ran as a self employed business from the same workshop his father was trading from.
John has been trading in that same workshop for the last 30+ years as Station Motors – a separate company mainly involved in heavy goods vehicle repairs but also completing restoration work for customers.
Between them they have a huge amount of experience with motor vehicle repairs, restoration and motorsport, John, competing in the early F2 then F1 stock car racing series (back in the 60’s), and Jonathan (with John) building and servicing successful rally cars. As a personal project they completed a restoration on a 1958 XK150 which has won a number of awards.
Initially the two companies were operating from a shared workshop, however with the ever increasing amount and scale of customer projects room became an issue. It was decided to extended the workshop in 2012 with two more bays, full stores, a dedicated machine shop and customer reception/office area.
In 2018 John made the decision to join the company as a joint director and concentrate on restorations and performance work, rather than the commercial vehicles.
