Me too!!
Strangely enough the Service General Manager I was chatting to today previously worked for a guy called Paul Dixon. Hull guy. No longer with us.
Quite an astute business man. Paul Dixon Motor Holdings. A think a couple of times at least he sold out at the top and bought back as the business crashed but kept hold of the property leases.
His timing was impeccable. Think he had his hands on Carnell at one time.
Believe he was the first to try internet car buying, based at Thorne near Doncaster - Jamjar Cars.

I only thought of him as he developed a large site outside Hull with multiple dealerships in on one large plot, looking at each other.
Evans Halshaw took over the lot - Ford, Vauxhall, Citroen oh and Kia. Wouldn't go near them for Kia. I go further afield to get robbed. Maybe I should try them. They are the closest. Cant do any worse. I really need to let it go :))
