Best of luck Gareth, sorry to see you go.
I'll always remember the running in service, complete with dealer stamp in a Munich hotel basement carpark - legendary

remember it well....there I was in Leonardo's car park just giving cesil a wipe down after the "damp" anniversary meet and there was gareth armed with his vinyl gloves doing an oil service.......Elms management really are losing out....typical dealer mentality. Huntingdon are the winners, no question about it.

All the best Gareth, your legacy will live on for years to come!
As my boss once said to me "Good doers are hard to find that's why we promote numpties" My thoughts "what does that make you?"

Hope you've made the right move, only time will tell but a least it's a change of scene.

Best of Luck

Best wishes for the new opportunity Gareth.
You'll be missed from Elms for sure.

Good luck with the move, Gareth. I'm particularly grateful to you for all the hard work you put in fixing all the usual CSL issues that my car suffered (new gearbox, top end rebuild, etc), and for making sure BMW honoured the warranty.

My CSL is tucked up in storage now, hopefully get her out soon and bring her to see you at your new gaff.
