It's almost a year ago since I was lucky enough to WIN CarDealer Magazines 'Dealers Dealer of the Year'.
And what a year it has been!
I have spoken to more independent dealers and made more connection this year that all my previous years in the trade. Not only this but our company continues to grow profitably despite the Oil & Gas collapse in the NE of Scotland and all without advertising a single car on AutoTrader.
It was an honour to accept this award and hopefully I have done enough this year to repay those dealers for their votes.
Good luck to all those nominated for this award and all the award categories on Monday and may your award bring you the success it has brought me this year .
Unfortunatley we are unable to attend the Awards this year but I'm sure you will manage to party without us.
