Welcome to the Meet the Team section of this site. Family values are very important to us at Leslies, and we would love to show you who our employees are and which part of our business they represent. You can click on each dealership site below and take a look.
As for me, my name is Graham Vanassche and I am the Managing Director of Leslies Motors. I have been a part of my family business since 1976, starting to learn the trade at the age of 15. My Father, Leslie Vanassche, started the business in 1948 in Sandown on the Isle of Wight. And with my son, Louis Vanassche, becoming a general manager of the business in recent years, the business has grown in the hands of 3 generations of our family. We've gone from a small single dealership in Sandown, to a multi-franchise motor group with 6 sites across the Island, and we are continuing to grow.
I am excited to see where we will be in the coming years, and I'm very proud to be the Managing Director of our Island Family Business.
