A "proper bloke"!?

As opposed to what?

I live 400 miles away from his dealership by the way, and wouldn't buy a BMW from anyone else.
Although in not quite 400miles away from his dealership it's still quite a distance and I would echo everything you've noted above. I found Tony great to deal with, very straight to the point with regards to what he could, and couldn't do, and I'll be buying my next BMW from him.

That happened to me as well, passed onto one of his colleagues! Although he was doing a good deal as well, not right for me at the time though.

Tony made contact with me today but and couldn't give me a price as he needed to pick up where the other sales guy who fielded my call to Tony last week had left off. I have since been in touch with Tony to thank him for his help but have placed an order with my local dealer.

I think like many dealers he can be good on certain models at certain times but my advice is to shop around and your local guy will usually match.

I am lucky nowadays that I don't need to bother as my local dealer also happens to be family

That's fair enough for those that have decent, or even vaguely decent local dealers, but unfortunately for me, my local dealers are cretins!

And my next nearest dealers are over an hour away, so I might as well go the extra hour to Croydon.

Ditto tried using local and shopped around.

That and most of the dealers for all manufacturers in Wolverhampton are crap!
