Welcome to R Symons

  • Welcome to R Symons

Car enthusiasts, vehicle sales and now one of the UK's leading electric car specialists. There are plenty of garages selling electric cars now but not many actually know a great deal about them, especially Teslas. We are the refreshing difference and our knowledge you should find exceeds that of anyone else.

I am unlike almost any other vehicle trader you are likely to meet. I set up my business because I am a true car enthusiast and I love buying and selling great cars and helping people find the right car for them.

Initially, as a young lad, I completed a degree in design but my ambitions to become a car designer were hard to fulfil. Over time the path of life lead me into the world of software where I was a UK director for an excellent company, but I had to step down from this job to commit time for family life upon the arrival of our daughter 2009. It was then in 2010 that I basically converted a hobby into a living and I’ve been playing with cars full time ever since!

    I couldn't recommend R Symons enough. Every member of staff which I have dealt with has been professional, friendly and not in the least bit pushy. They sold my car within just a few days and I was able to get nearly 10% more than I would have selling through the CarWow auction.
    They also produce really interesting and informative YouTube content. Talented people!
