James Hosking

AA Cars Managing Director

James is the Managing Director of AA Cars, and a leading expert in helping consumers make good decisions on their next car purchase

James was born and bred in Plymouth, where his love for cars quickly grew when he passed his test and got his hands on a C reg Ford Fiesta 1.1. Having travelled the world, and earning a degree from Warwick Uni, James has embarked on a career in building great consumer products. James has been at the AA for 11 years, including running the AA’s Roadside operation, and most recently leading AA Cars and the AA’s growing Mobile Mechanic business. James drives today an IX3 and a VW Sharan as the main family car for ferrying around his 3 children. The Sharan is very much part of the family…

Outside of work you’ll find James transporting his children to various places in the Sharan, following the progress of the mighty Plymouth Argyle and trying to keep fit with running.
