Meet the Kynastons Team

Paul Kynaston - Company Director
Founded the business in 1971. Still very much "hands on", offering his expertise around the office and body shop, when he can be dragged away from preparing his rally cars and renovating his tractors. His office is otherwise known as the tractor shed!
