The late David Simmonite established Simmonites in 1963. He started out as a panel beater repairing cars in the outbuildings of the small family farm. He bought his first Land Rover for £45 and received 50 ‘phone calls for it! Recognising the demand he continued to buy and sell Land Rovers and realising the difficulty in obtaining parts David opened Simmonites.
The business grew and Simmonites specialised in refurbishing Ex Army Land Rovers – David was the first to customise these and to ‘stripe’ Land Rovers.
Today Simmonites is co-owned by Mark Calzoni who has been with the company for over 30 years, Simmonites now has more than 58 years’ Land Rover trading experience.
We cater for all Land Rovers from the earliest Series I to the latest models.
