As of the 31st October and 17 years working for Duckworth Land Rover from the tender age of 15, I have to decided to move onto pastures new and out of the motor trade, it's time for a change whilst I’m still young.
I want to thank each and every one of you for your custom over the years, I have formed many brilliant working relationships along the way and had fun doing so.
I'll sorely miss the forum community so will still drop in now and then.
I will update you with info on who my successor is in the coming days.
