Taking it’s name from our original location where it had historically been a boggy area of ground and therefore populated by the “little green jumping fellas”, Frogs Island 4×4 was first established in the early 1990′s.

From humble beginnings in what was nothing more than a farm shed, Frogs Island 4×4 in 2003 re-located to Milton Park between Abingdon and Didcot in Oxfordshire and now occupies a modern facility comprising a five bay workshop, a mezzanine stores area with a spacious yard in front.

The move signalled a period of significant expansion, during which time the workforce number increased and our workshop activity centred predominantly around specialised (and thus expensive) vehicle preparation for overland expedition and other various “bespoke” uses. As with most UK industries, ours was not immune to the effects of the 2008 economic downturn, resulting in a reduction in demand for this type of work.

Frogs Island 4×4 started 2009 with a smaller but still very committed workforce and has continued to trade at this level since. Whilst the demand for expensive preparation work may have reduced in recent years, by contrast our localised customer base seeking routine servicing, repairs and MOT work has grown significantly.

Irrespective of whether it’s a simple light bulb change required or a major vehicle preparation project undertaken, we pride ourselves at Frogs Island 4×4 in that every customer is afforded the same personal level of attention.
