Andy Pressland R.I.P.

[E46CSL]

Dear CSL fans, dear BMW fans



With profound regret, I bring you news that Andy Pressland passed away yesterday. Andy was 39.

As many of you will know from this thread http://www.cslregister.com/forum/sho...andy+pressland Andy had been suffering from cancer for a while. He put up a valiant fight, but he finally succumbed to this terrible illness.

To the last day he remained cheerful. Shimmy & DuncanR were with him last Saturday and observed how positive he remained.

Andy was an incredibly kind and considerate person. His dedication and enthusiasm were truly awesome – his passion for cars involved his ownership of an E30 M3 and a Mercedes 280S – such great taste.

In the 8 years I have known him, I got to know him reasonably well and say with a heavy heart that we have lost a true gentleman. I know my feelings are echoed by BMW fans near and far. Everyone at Murketts is touched by this immense loss. So many have selflessly provided support for Andy. In particular his colleagues at Murketts, both present and past, have been solid anchors for Andy throughout this difficult phase. Contact details for 2 of them, if you wish to contact them, are as follows:

Cambridge City Crematorium. Family flowers only, and any donations to the Arthur Rank Car Home where he spent a fortnight prior to his death.
