Trident Honda is delighted to announce that it has been awarded the new Legend franchise by Honda. Trident Honda's Managing Director, Richard Roberts, says:
Having driven the new Honda Legend, I was astonished at the new levels of technology being employed and delighted that this has been achieved without detracting from the driver's enjoyment. We are greatly looking forward to welcoming the Legend to Trident Honda and to our customers.
After discussions with Honda, it has been determined that, due to their franchising territory plan for the Thames Ditton territory, we will be selling our assets at Thames Ditton to Thames Honda; who operate a number of surrounding sites.
Going forward, it has been agreed that we will operate the area from Weybridge and Walton across to Staines, Chobham, Camberley and Woking; which in itself is a great territory.

Trident Garages is well known locally as a long-established family business, with dealerships in Ottershaw and Weybridge.
