Car Industry

The car industry has had a long history of connections to Kidlington. Morris Motors, one of the main companies designing and manufacturing cars in the early 20th century, was founded in Oxford in 1912 by William Richard Morris. His first plant was based in Cowley, but he moved to nearby Kidlington in 1913 and established a new Morris Motors Ltd. factory, which still stands today.

William Richard Morris and his company Morris Motors Ltd. went on to develop the Morris Minor in 1928, which is one of the most iconic British cars of all time. The Morris Minor was exported to many countries, and production of the car continued in Kidlington until 1971 when it was replaced by the Morris Marina.

Finance Industry

The finance industry has also had a significant connection to Kidlington in recent years. The city of Oxford has developed into a hub for financial services, and is now home to a number of major financial companies, including the insurance company Aviva. Aviva has a large office in Kidlington, which serves as its headquarters for the UK and Ireland.

Motorsport

Motorsport has also had a long history of connections to Kidlington. The town is home to the Kidlington Circuit, which is an abandoned racing circuit that opened in 1924. The circuit was mainly used for motorbike racing and provided the perfect location for the sport, due to its close proximity to the city of Oxford.

In 1937, the circuit was closed due to safety concerns and was abandoned. However, the motorbike racing scene continued to thrive in the area with the establishment of the Oxfordshire Motor Racing Club in 1944. The club's headquarters is still based in Kidlington, and the organisation provides an important pathway for aspiring racers.
