My name is Patrick Simms.

I work at Stratstone Cadillac, Corvette & HUMMER in Birmingham.

I am the longest serving member of this Stratstone American franchise Nationwide......for my sins......and over they years have experienced many Corvettes which I have sold, px'd & met with customers in with service cars and would not still be selling them if I did not truly have a passion for these American machines.

Previous to selling cars I lived in Australia then Los Angeles so this is an obvious link to the type of vehicles I choose to sell.

I have a large number of customers Nationwide who have bought Corvettes & other performance cars from me with significant on ongiong repeat business due to my passion for the brand.

This profile has not been set-up to tout for business or engage in banter with my respected competitors it is simply to offer my expertise and advise about Cadillac, Corvette & HUMMER in the UK to any who may choose to use it.

I have a service centre & parts dept here in Birmingham to also aid any of you.

Please feel free to contact me.

Either they meant "left for the day" or this has to be a wind up?
Don't let Rob see this or he'll go manic.................

What I am trying to figure out is why Patrick felt compelled to repost this "message" (??) when he got 100% zero replies the last time he posted his C.V. the other week. Very odd.

Nowt stranger than folk.

Do you mean with a caravan? Horse drawn or engine powered?

Patrick, what can I say.
It's been fun knowing you so stay in touch.
Good luck on your travels.
The motor trade is a small place if you only count the good guys so I have no doubt we'll meet again.

The brummie accent doesn't sound very Oz to me! Have a good time Pat. I've missed the daily phone calls with amusing questions since leaving Park Lane.

Who's the longest serving memeber now of Stratstone CCH now you've gone? You might hold the record (2 years 5 months?)...

Blimey Patrick - sorry to hear that. I have to say you are THE ONLY guy ever to call me back from Stratstone when I enquired earlier last year. Sorry to hear you got the boot and best of luck in your travels.

Sorry to hear that, Maybe Stratstones are getting ready to loose Corvette/Cadillac.
MMMMM I wonder if Leroy was it the list of salesman to go!!
If you had a busy dealership you would not be letting salesman go.

Steve and Adrian at Wavendon I should think; both with well over 3 years service.

Good luck with your travels Pat.

As has been said here somewhere before, last one out please turn off the lights...
