Sinclair Garages,Gorseinon

Volkswagens everywhere you look at Sinclair Garages.The dealership was started c1972 by Gerry Hill of Aberdare.I remember an early offer was a years ' supply of fuel with certain models purchased.NSUs were sold in those days too,remember the RO80 saloon with the rotary engine and the small Prinz?

 

Mr Hill used to use a helicopter to get him about and tragically he was killed in an accident in it on his way home to the valleys one day.Gerald Sinclair took over and his company owns several garages these days.I took this when I was looking for somewhere to park JFG,the FedEx van is one of the Swansea depots' latest.It joined the fleet in September along with a Citroen Relay when additional territory was taken over around Aberystwyth.
