betginge 73 Posted November 20, 2016 The daft thing is the big firm's that always win these awards never contribute to this forum, OP as the exception to this rule. Although they are mentioned by us from time to time, normally in the Dealer Auction Tales, they are happy to stitch us up with clonkers some of the big firms, Good job we're on to them . No I will not be attending, Although one day I dream of being nominated, even if it's for the quietist dealer award, A Prize is a Prize Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mat C 77 Posted November 21, 2016 We've been nominated for BEst Newcomer and Best small dealer under 50 cars. I am ABSOLUTELY GUTTED that I cant go as I will be on my way to Mexico. If it was only the night before...... Looking forward to the results, to be honest, just being shortlisted has made my year..... from selling a few off my driveway last year to now - WOW what a difference. Good luck to all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Congratulations on being nominated for both awards! Great achievement. Sounds like you have a similar sort of set up to us. We started in January of this year, sold 120 cars off my drive! finally moved into a premises two months ago. Much better for us and the neighbours! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
