HWM is the latest dealer to be added to the Caterham network and was first established in February 1938, Operating out of the same beautiful building since just after WW2. HWM is a private, family owned dealership. Whilst we enjoy a remarkable heritage, we have survived through being dynamic and innovative. We use the fact that we are relatively small to be nimble in decision making, constantly innovating and providing a level of service that only a small family business can deliver. Today, racing cars built in this country dominate almost every formula, but the first British team to find international success after WW2 is almost forgotten. It wasn’t BRM: the expensive and heavily hyped V16 was an abject failure. It wasn’t Connaught or Vanwall, though their day would come. And it wasn’t Cooper or Lotus, who would go on to win World Championships. In fact it was a shoestring effort from a little garage in Walton-on-Thames called Hersham and Walton Motors – HWM. Over HWM’s seven-year life as a racing car manufacturer less than two dozen were built, but some 70 per cent of the entire production survives today.
