RH Trading 80 Posted May 23, 2018 It looked good but unfortunately couldn't get up to it - what did you think of it Umesh? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
umesh 336 Posted May 23, 2018 Great event, massive place although it didn't feel busy as Silverstone but I think its purely due to its enormous size and lots of space around every stand ! Thoroughly enjoyed it , lots to take in interesting workshops , although I couldn't get to them all ,Great speaks/panel - Q& A Sessions that I manged to listen to. Also great to meet so many dealers face to face, some I've never met and others just to catch up, the BIG bonus was the number of independent dealers that signed up for the IMDA! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rory RSC 596 Posted May 24, 2018 Great event, well worth making the effort to go and learn. You get out what you put in in this game. I am already money up having attended and a few little tweaks to the business here and there soon bring the money in. One of the most useful things I got out of the event was spending time with Autotrader and listening to talks from Clickdealer along with the digital changes. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am pleased it was worthwhile,I thought about going but out of respect to the Car Dealer mag guys I decided not to.I would have probably been guilty of heckling some of these digital bullshitters,got into an argument with Autotrader,Cap and co and been banned from here. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kieran @ Cazana 3 Posted May 25, 2018 Found it very useful, met some great guys and girls for the first time, had some interesting and constructive chats and overall people spent the time to engage with us and sign up. It certainly could have been busier, but Tuesday was better than Monday, I think quality over quantity is the way I would summarise it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
