About Us


 Auto Vivendi – It’s Who We Are

Auto Vivendi was formed in 2005 as écurie25 Supercar Club. Fast forward to the now and we are the world’s largest and longest continually-established Supercar Club.

Driven by the current management since 2010, the Club was rebranded in 2014 as Auto Vivendi. We are now a global leading provider of supercar lifestyle events as well as the provision of supercars for shared or ‘fractional’ use.

We are innovators in our field and we love what we do. After all, the world is our playground and we are surrounded by beautiful supercars, wonderful adventures and fantastic people. We are the lucky ones and we like to think that it shines through in all that we do.

CRAIG WILLIAMS

MANAGING DIRECTOR

'Life is tough... I used to be an oil broker'


Craig is a former oil broker who also founded Vmax200. Craig’s favourite drive was a blast to Monaco in his classic Porsche 911, although his most memorable piece of action was racing a jet along a runway!

Craig has the dream job of running our events and experiences programme, which makes his personal social media posts read like a billionaire’s handbook!

Craig lives on an island and actually believes he could be the next short Welsh James Bond.

 

 

Tom Brading

Membership Experience Manager

‘A master of oval balls’


A veteran of the car industry and of teaching kids our national sport (well some of ours anyway), Tom is tasked with one thing at Auto Vivendi… To take as many as he needs to for the team.

We live and breathe having exceptional customer service and Tom’s reason for being is exactly this.

Tom has European as well as British heritage and we are assured that his slightly battered appearance is the result of some incredible motoring adventures around the world. We believe him (sort of).

Whatever our members need, Tom will make sure it happens. So please feel free to test his limits!

Tom’s favourite car is a Shelby Cobra 427 S/C.

James Allen

Marketing Manager

'The one who likes to put spin on things'


Former tennis coach extraordinaire, James has found his true passion at Auto Vivendi after years of teaching kids how to play tennis in the Med, as well as leading the marketing in the UK for a global luxury hotel brand.

James brings his love of delivering the finer things in life, along with his energy and know-how, to try and help capture the excitement and buzz within the Club for the world to see.

James can still be found pounding tennis balls on court or in the woods (for his dog to chase!), or auditioning to be in one of his wife’s films…  We shall say no more.

JAMES MILLARD

SPECIAL OPS MANAGER

'The grey bearded one'


James is a relative veteran in the supercar world, having worked in the supercar hire and events industry since 2006. Prior to that he worked in the pharmaceutical industry and the wine trade, but we can assure you it’s not all drink, drugs and fast cars with him!

James joined Auto Vivendi as Special Ops Manager in 2020, as quite frankly he was the right man for the job!

James’ all-time favourite supercar is the Ferrari 288 GTO but he is yet to drive one. However, they do say that you should never meet your heroes…

James also thinks there is a Top Gun quote for all occasions. One of his favourites is “Your ego is writing cheques that your body can’t cash”. Fortunately for us, he’s kept these quotes to himself since joining the team!

James’ nickname is ‘The Beard’ and one can see why….

JAMES MCKECHNIE

Membership Experience Manager

'Living life through a lens'


As well as working in our membership team, James also captures all the event action on film, and when he doesn’t have a camera in hand, he’s flying the drone recording stunning footage of the action from above. When James isn’t assisting our members he can be found filming on a runway or race track, or enjoying his other passion, running marathons in aid of charity. James tells us he is a chef–extraordinaire. Some might say he’s the perfect catch – and then they see his shoes.

Kasim 'Kas' Hussain

SPECIAL OPS

'My other job is a Forex Trader'


Kasim ‘Kas’ Hussain started working at the Club in 2013, after leaving his previous job of chasing criminals and building ties with the community whilst working for the Metropolitan Police. Kas fell in love with the Club and the great team that make it happen (we are not fooled and know it’s all about the cars!), and he is now responsible for keeping our supercar collection in pristine condition and ensuring the smooth-running of member bookings.

Some say he has the dream job and that he was born with a full beard. All we know is that he is called Kas…

 

 

Kieran Moore

SPECIAL OPS

‘Jack of all trades, master of one’


Kieran is a former mechanic and marine engineer passionate about all things motorised. Having originally trained as a carpenter, Kieran has a keen eye for detail and appreciates good craftsmanship.

Kieran loves driving and recently completed the North Coast 500. Whilst he enjoys driving all manner of vehicles; motorbikes, lorries and horse boxes included, cars have been a keen hobby of his. Kieran’s spare time is spent experimenting with speed during drift days, rebuilding his Volkswagen Golf R32 (his first-ever car) and modifying his Range Rover Sport (his normal run around). If money were no option, his top choice of car would be a 1967 Ford Mustang (Eleanor).

Kieran typically splits his time between West and East London (often via his Yamaha R1) but is fast becoming a keen traveller with the help of his better half and looks forward to driving both near and far for Auto Vivendi.

JOCELYN 'JOSS' POWNALL

EVENTS & EXPERIENCES

'Helping people around the world spend their kids' inheritance'


Joss re-joined Auto Vivendi in 2014 after several years of plying her trade working for associated businesses around the world. As so often happens with birds who have been released into the wild, Joss found her way home and is now safely back where she belongs – in the Auto Vivendi Events & Experiences team!

Joss’ favourite car is the 458 Spider because like her, it’s highly tuned and expensive to maintain – the perfect fit for the Club then! Oh and she likes horses.

LUCY BRIGGS

ACCOUNTANT

'Baby Vivendi'


Having joined us as a mere 17-year-old, Lucy is now fast approaching her mid-20’s and has learned most of what she knows from us. That, by itself is a scary enough thought, however that’s nowhere near as scary as knowing who she has learned the rest from!

Our bubbly darling had her first driving lesson in a Ferrari (it had to be done!) and luckily she survived and continues to be our accountant extraordinaire.

However, be warned, we are told (by her, no less!) that her father is very big, very protective and a slight nutter…

Our Drive Day Team

Instructors

'The ones who keep you safe'


Every new member undertakes a Supercar Drive Day when they join the Club and we have a team of friendly and experienced ‘instructors’, all former or current police driving assessors from around the country, who provide a fun day of ‘road-craft’ (as well as lunching like the best of them!) to ensure new members are able to enjoy their their time behind the wheels of our cars as much, and safely, as possible.
