The new Mazda6 launch.

THINK DIFFERENTLY. It’s been suggested that the new Mazda6 may well determine the future of the brand. It sits in an important and competitive market segment, and is the first Mazda saloon with the full SKYACTIV technology suite. If the launch at Hendy Mazda was any indication, Mazda needn’t worry about the

future of their flagship. With 28 bookings, 23 test drives and 11 sales in just three days, the Hendy launch was the first chapter of what looks set to be a great success story. Much of the appeal can be pinned on Mazda’s determination to build a truly next-generation platform. SKYACTIV, Mazda’s name for a raft of advanced design and engineering features, has


reduced weight and improved power and fuel consumption across the range. The new Mazda6 features high-compression petrol engines for improved power, low compression diesels for responsiveness, high-tensile chassis steel, huge weight savings and a regenerative braking system called i-ELOOP, all working together as jinba ittai – Mazda’s colourful description which translates as ‘horse and rider’.

Best of all, none of this technology comes at a high cost, and together the changes deliver not just fantastic numbers but also an engaging drive – Zoom Zoom, if you will. To book a test drive in the new Mazda6 click here

New at Hen NEW Kuga launch

Honda Civic 1.6 Diesel

NEW Fiesta EcoBoost

The rugged new Kuga has just arrived, with handsome new styling and advanced new technology. Costing over £1,000 less than the current model, Ford’s most stylish crossover will gain new equipment including Fold Flat Seating, Ford SYNC, an enlarged boot (a huge 82 litres larger) torque vectoring for security on the road and a hands-free tailgate. It remains the best driving crossover in its class, of course – and relentlessly innovative.

The Honda Civic is receiving a new diesel engine, and it could be the most important new engine in a decade.

The new shape Fiesta has been substantially revised to stay ahead of the curve. The class-leader has a handsome new face, more high-tech equipment and Ford’s award-winning new 1.0 EcoBoost engine. Cabin upgrades make the Fiesta’s interior an even more pleasant place to spend time and, with a range of over 45 models, nine trim levels and eight engines to choose from, there’s something for everyone.

Assembled in the UK, it’s the lightest diesel engine in the world, and produces some astonishing figures. The 120PS power output puts the Civic slightly ahead of its nearest rivals, but the main headlines are 94g/km of CO2 and 78.5mpg combined.

Iveco Stralis

In a world of razor-thin margins, it’s important to find efficiency and gains where you can. And as on trucks in its market segment, the Iveco Stralis sets benchmarks in lifetime value. With 5 engine cho range is wide enough to suit any challenge, and the heavy duty Stralis Hi-Way was voted Internation

NEW Ford Fiesta ST

Ford Transit Custom

Arriving this summer, the cee’d GT is Kia’s entry into the hot hatch segment. The handsome new model will debut at March’s Geneva Motor Show, with full details available then.

The Fiesta ST is the Fiesta for those who love driving excitement. Remarkable performance from the precision-tuned 1.6 EcoBoost turbo engine will put a smile on your face, but the lowered and fettled chassis keeps the power under control. You’ll even be smiling at the petrol pumps – the Fiesta ST achieves impressive real world driving figures of 40mpg and 139g/km of CO2.

The all-new Transit Custom is the first and only van in its segment to score a maximum 5-star safety rating by Euro NCAP. Two innovative technologies, Lane Keeping Alert and Ford SYNC® with Emergency Assistance, also received Euro NCAP Advanced awards for technology: the first for any commercial vehicle in history. With outstanding fuel economy and exceptional loadspace, it’s easy to see why the all-new Transit Custom has already won the International Van of the Year 2013 award.

With new styling to match the rest of the sharp Kia range, we already know the cee’d GT will feature LED light clusters, handsome 18” alloy wheels, red pinstriping, Recaro sports seats and high performance.

ne of the most fuel and cost efficient oices and dozens of configurations, the nal Truck of the Year 2013.

The Fiesta ST arrives in Hendy showrooms this Spring.

And winner of the best selling car of 2012 goes to... The Ford Focus has notched up the enviable title of world’s best-selling car, according to HIS Automotive. The announcement comes as Ford celebrated the 350 millionth Ford ever made. The landmark car was a Ford Focus built at the company’s Rayong factory in Thailand. “Consider, for a moment, the enormity of 350 million vehicles,” said John Fleming, Ford executive vice president of global manufacturing. “It’s equivalent to producing one vehicle every 10 seconds for 109 years; and, if placed end to end, would stretch to the moon and back, twice.” The current, third generation of the mid-size car, launched in 2011, was designed on an unprecedented global scale, helping to make more technologies and features economically viable than ever before for cars in this segment. Key innovations in the new Focus include Active City Stop lowspeed safety system, Active Park Assist, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keeping Aid, Traffic Sign Recognition, Auto High Beam, Driver Alert and Adaptive Cruise Control.

D FOCUS

2012 FOR

Last year, Ford launched the 250PS Focus ST, Ford’s first global performance car, and began offering the Focus with the new 1.0 litre EcoBoost petrol engine, which was named the 2012 “International Engine of the Year” in June. A zero emissions Focus Electric, Ford’s first ever all-electric passenger car, will be available later this year. Stephen Hendy told Autoblog, “It’s no great surprise that the Focus is so popular, Ford has produced an amazing product which appeals to such a wide audience. At our dealerships we are finding that customers love the stunning new look, they are impressed with the class-leading technology and have really embraced innovations such as parking assist. The affordable price brings all of these features within the reach of so many car buyers who never thought they could afford such a great package.”

Make this year h Well, we all know it was the New Year a month or two ago, yep 2013, maybe you were thinking about the time ahead? You may even have been pursuing your New Year resolutions or maybe old ones that were not completed from prior years? Sounding familiar? Do you get that déjà vu feeling when beginning to think about the New Year and the resolutions you may have set yourself? Sometimes having found yourself drifting off from your goals? Well… what would it be like to ‘make this year happen for you’? Picture 2013 being the year of developing a mind-set of success? Stretching out from your old comfort zones to something… a little challenging... unfamiliar… yet hugely rewarding? Maybe it’s contemplating changes in your personal life, at work, even replacing one or two dysfunctional

habits with enriching ones, ones that will continue to add to the success of the many things you are wanting to achieve this year? Imagine for a moment your resources, talents and abilities that you already have helping you to achieve your goals this year, thinking about the times before in your life when you have been successful at many things. Let’s be honest here, we have all set New Year resolutions or goals at times in our lives that haven’t worked. Well it’s ok to say, that in the majority of cases the problem is not you! Yep that’s right; it’s just the pattern of thought that was being used. You may have heard the saying ‘seeing is believing’? Well many successful people have healthy habits of imagining or picturing themselves achieving their goals, and when they do this, the feelings

“ Discover how life could be, tomorrow and the days, weeks, months and even years ahead ”

and thoughts they generate, produce further thoughts and actions towards their goals. This is one of the roads to success. Imagine now, 2013 with no more toxic thinking. If you ever hear yourself saying ‘what you don’t want’… just simply ask yourself the same question though a different way round. Yep it can be that simple... So just ask yourself... ‘What it is you do want?’ and begin to notice the difference and how you maybe beginning to feel more motivated towards your goals.. And guess what… yep, here is the ‘beginnings’ of a mind-set of success.

A TRUSTED DEALER “We now have a website that reflects our status as a leading business, operating at the forefront of used car sales. The What Car? Approved Used marque also backs up our credentials and reinforces the trust our customers place in us.”

Simon Palmer Used Car Sales Director

When shopping for something as important and expensive as a new car, you want to know that you’re getting a good deal from a dealership that inspires confidence. Fortunately there’s a way to know beforehand that the dealership you choose is trustworthy. The Hendy Group was bestowed with the WhatCar? Trusted Dealer Award, an accolade granted by the famous magazine only to dealers where customers are sure to get the very best service at a fair price. It’s a mark of faith in the Hendy name, and an assurance that there are no nasty surprises and no hidden catches, but only service of the highest calibre.

Becoming a Trusted Dealer isn’t easy. Before earning the accolade, an aspiring dealer must prove that they can offer 10 crucial service differences to set them apart from the mainstream. Each item on the list is an important aspect of car purchasing and servicing, so customers can truly trust the service they receive. From meticulous mechanical and historical checks on every car to generous warranties and returns policies, Hendy ticked every box on the Trusted Dealer list, passing with flying colours. So you can be sure every car we sell also passes our tests – and likewise passes with top marks.

The Honda School of Dreams programme helps young people to understand the importance of pursuing their dreams,

and teaches skills and strategies to help turn those dreams into reality. It was developed by Honda UK and a team of independent education experts, and is intended to help students and educators discover different, creative and fun ways to learn.

THE Hendy IVECO

GOOD News!

Iveco Scaffolding When 1st Scaffolding needed a pair of Iveco trucks, they talked to Bryan Clapp at Hendy IVECO Exeter. He sorted them out with a Stralis and Eurocargo, each with scaffold bodies built by Exeter Coachworks. These were the first new Iveco vehicles in the customer’s fleet, and they were very pleased with their purchase, saying

“Hendy IVECO have supplied us with two fantastic new vehicles both with on board axle weighing equipment as this is very important to us in our industry. They will be maintained by Hendy workshops at Exeter on a fully maintained contract hire and we look forward to building our business and relationship with the Hendy Group.”

R & W Traffic Management When R & W Traffic Management purchased 11 Iveco Daily Dropside vehicles they made sure that Hendy vehicles will soon be helping to look after the roads

everybody drives on. The company looks after local major and minor roads, including motorways, making sure that they are kept in good condition, safe and secure.


Frank Greenslades Limited When Frank Greenslades Ltd. found their existing vehicles weren’t getting the fuel economy they were led to expect, they ditched the poor performers after just one year and made their way to Hendy. After receiving quotes from DAF, Mercedes and Isuzu, Greenslades selected a 10-ton Iveco Eurocargo with a refrigerated body, which

returns a steady 17.5 mpg. Greenslades say that in the current climate of increasing fuel costs, they’ll benefit financially.

St. Austell Brewery, Cornwall

J&A Transporters Ltd. J & A Transporters of Bridgwater, Somerset needed two new Iveco Stralis trucks, but this was no ordinary order. The stock vehicles had to go through extensive changes to suit the customer’s requirements, including fitment of dash-mounted air conditioning, chassis and fuel tank shortening and fitment of car transporter bodies originally built for a different chassis. Peter Swinnerton of Hendy Iveco took care of the arrangements, handing over the new trucks at the customer’s premises in Bridgwater.

St. Austell Brewery has purchased commercial vehicles from Ian Grant for 20 years, and have always been pleased with the service and support from Hendy. Most recently, they ordered eight Eurocargo 16-tonne Curtainsiders for delivery in April. This will be one of the most high-profile Hendy fleets in the South West when the vehicles arrive, painted and ready for work.


HondaMarine It’s not the Honda dealership you might expect. Hendy Honda Southampton’s West Quay location doesn’t only sell cars in the Honda range – the showroom also has a new nautical theme. The Honda car dealership now stocks and services Honda Marine equipment, and has been servicing and selling engines even before it opened. Now that the site has officially launched, customers are welcome to look around to find out more about Honda’s outstanding marine products. Power Products Director Graham Kirk is keen to see what the new location can do for the Southampton marine community. “It’s an exciting new

addition to the Hendy portfolio, with a lot of potential,” he said of the site. “It’s something our customers have been asking about for years so we know there are plenty of people out there looking for marine products backed by the Hendy name. We’re really looking forward to doing good business.” Ever since the introduction of its first outboard motor, Honda has always been at the forefront of outboard technology. It was Honda that first popularised four-stroke motors over the much dirtier, polluting 2-stroke engines – a change once thought impossible, but today clean four-strokes account for over 60% of all outboards sold. Now that Honda Marine know-how and accomplishment appears in a Hendy showroom.

Honda’s dedication to technical achievement is mixed with its renowned reliability in all Honda outboard engines, backed up by a 6 year domestic warranty. Variable valve timing, lean burn control and BLAST (boosted lowspeed torque) technologies all advance and improve the performance and efficiency of Honda outboards, but never at the cost of the security of die-hard dependability – just what you need when adventuring on the water, inland or at sea. Honwave boats apply the same approach to inflatable craft. The same attention to detail, quality and reliability are in evidence in the whole Honwave range. If anything in the Honda Marine range interests you, or even if you’re just curious, take a look around the new showroom for yourself or call 0844 5399 730 for more information.

Staff Profile

Paul Aburrow - Power Products I started in 1986 at Hendy Industrial Engines, now known as Hendy Power, straight out of school. What’s your role? I’m a Parts Sales Accounts Manager. I help the company find parts for all kinds of applications. Clients are looking for components for all kinds of machinery; I get involved in finding uses for Ford parts anywhere they will fit. What does your job entail? I go all over the country, presenting OEM parts to people building vehicles. I look at the product they’re trying to produce, and turn up with sample bits that could work. We’ve done ice-cream machines, fitted Ford parts to Mercedes Benz vans, Sunseeker boats, Lamborghinis, security desks, dentists’ chairs, Ford GT40 and AC Cobra replicas and even rollercoasters for Universal Studios. We’re doing a project with the MOD that will have all Ford Ranger running gear and powertrain components. I just go in with an open mind and see what we can apply from the Ford or Iveco range. It’s not a normal parts department.

What do you find most challenging about it? The challenge is racking your brain to see what might fit the customer’s application. It’s a brain teaser to fit something in. All the parts are part car, part question mark. They can go anywhere. Worst thing that’s happened to you at work? Being left high and dry in a forklift cherrypicker while everyone went to lunch! Nothing catastrophic has ever happened, I suppose. Being let down by the supplier is the worst one, but you get round it. What do you like best about your role? Each phone call is completely different. It could be about a marine engine on the other side of the world or a road sweeper or a minesweeper. Today I’ve got to find new air vents for a hovercraft. Any advice for someone starting out in the industry? Listen. Each day is a challenge. You’ve got to learn that you don’t get given things. Don’t expect things to be handed on a plate to you – if you really want to understand the industry, you’ve got to do it yourself!


When you’re a trendsetting organic meat, vegetable and dairy delivery company taking groceries direct to customers’ doors, an efficient and reliable refrigerated van is a must. Abel & Cole have trusted Hendy to deliver their vans for years; to date we have sold them over 140 vehicles.

Hendy Power to the rescue! When a ferry in India got in trouble on 8th January and 180 lives were at risk, the Indian Coast Guard rushed to the rescue, saving everyone on board.

Most recently, Abel & Cole took delivery of 40 new Iveco Daily Chiller vans. Buyer Ben Reardon is heading to Amsterdam to deliver a lecture on how his business is growing with strong partnerships, and Hendy will feature in the lecture as a shining example.

Of course, the Coast Guard couldn’t have left the harbour without power – Hendy Power – who supplied engines to the Hovercraft FPT Vector V8s owned by the ICG. Bravo boys. Also... Hendy Hire and Tony Pettifer of Hendy Power come together to secure eight vehicles for TJ Transport for four years, and are in discussions to supply some Iveco lorries in the future. This has also generated business for Hendy Service Fareham, where TJ Transport are based. Visit Hendy Power here
