Just three years after Ford's 'Universal Car', the Model T, was unveiled in Britain on 8th March 1911, Ford Motor Company (England) Limited was incorporated to look after the most important market outside North America.
Trafford Park, a suburb of Manchester, played host to Ford's first UK factory with a disused tram works converted to Model T assembly opening in October in that same year, where four-man teams built individual vehicles until Henry Ford's revolutionary introduction of the moving assembly line in 1913.
Ford's start in Britain had humble beginnings, with two Ford Model A cars were shipped to England in 1903, and The Ford Model B took to London's roads in 1905, forming part of the earliest fleet of motor taxi cabs.
Today, Ford enjoys an enviable reputation, leading UK car sales for 34 consecutive years and the best-selling Ford Transit helping Ford lead commercial vehicle sales for 45 consecutive years. All ford dealers of new and used vans in Haywards Heath and the rest of the UK are very proud of Ford and how far they have come in 100 years.
Ford of Britain chairman, Joe Greenwell, said: "Ford of Britain has been in the fabric of the nation for over a hundred years and no motor company has touched more lives in Britain. We have a proud heritage and a bright future. Ford of Britain is a major pillar of Ford's global strategy and the new Ford Focus, centrepiece of the centenary, features advanced powertrains developed and produced in the UK."
