Off Topic » takeover

hi,
just got a e-mail from Allan Jeffries, they are being taken over by Vertu who already own Motorrad Sunderland & several Honda dealerships. i will be sorry to see the name disappear, I hope they carry on with the same friendly manner.

Oh dear, and possibly not good news if they try and , follow another Vertu company, Bristol Street motors methodology and try and charge for unnecessary parts at excessive prices.

At Rotherham, Rainbow was great, Alan Jeffries bought them out when they retired and followed on in the same manner, a great helpful and very honest dealership.

Have to see how they go, or look for another small group for services etc, but sadly they are diminishing in numbers each year.

Chandlers Motoradd in Brighton have suddenly become Group 1. Never heard any whispers at all about that and no idea who Group 1 are or how it will affcet the bike side of the business
