History of Micheldever Tyre and Auto Services

History of Micheldever Tyre & Auto Services - 1980s

In 1983 the original Micheldever Tyre & Auto Services burned down. For most, this catastrophe would've been a major set back, but Tony Todd turned disaster into an opportunity. He adapted a storage building located in Sutton Scotney as a temporary facility and carried on providing his service to an ever expanding base of loyal customers.

In 1985 Micheldever Tyre & Auto Services officially rose from the ashes, when the 'new' purpose built tyre fitting site was opened. In 1986, further development at Micheldever saw an expansion in the services offered to its customers on the current site. This led the way for Micheldever Tyre & Autos' evolution into becoming more than just a tyre retailer, but a true tyre specialist.

The 2000's

In 2000/01 Micheldever introduced a mobile tyre fitting service so that its customers could have their tyres fitted whilst they were at work/home.

In 2006 the company founder sold Micheldever Tyres to a new Management Team, headed by Paul Fox and Richard Sawney with backing from Graphite Capital and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS).

Today, the company is the largest independent wholesaler, distributor and retailer of tyres in the UK. Selling six million tyres in 2009/10 (20 percent of the total UK market). In addition to offering car, motorcycle and off-road tyres we also fit exhausts, brakes and shock absorbers.
