Comment was made by Jeremy Clarkson, if you cannot afford an Aston Martin, buy a VW Golf GTI, and I did 14 years ago from Bay Prestige.

Recently the car developed a trim problem and I consulted Bevan Sheppard the Group Service Manager at Bay Prestige.

The car was well outside the time limit for any claim.

Bevan's comment ‘bring the car in, we will go half, and you can use my car until yours is fixed'. This was not what I expected to hear and it takes after-sales service to a new level that most people would not believe in today's world.

Peter Farmer sure knows how to pick them.
