"From modest beginnings to rapid expansion, how did your journey start, Mike?"

"Well, it all started with a single Hyundai dealership back in 2010. It was a challenging time—the middle of a recession—but I saw an opportunity. Hyundai had an eye-catching range, with great models coming through taking the brand to a whole new level. Meanwhile the government's scrappage scheme gave customers a real incentive to upgrade their cars, at the same time as introducing a new and wider range of customers to the brand. From there, we took the very simple approach of working hard to build a strong reputation for great service, with a professional and friendly approach all along the way."
