Anyone know what happened to Auto Pista in Long Ashton ? The showroom is empty and the website just has a small typed "Hello" on it now. They used to have some nice cars in there too.

Hit the wall, stocking some real trumpy motors I guess they felt the pinch like a lot of other dealers.

Thought as much. Shame as it added a bit of automotive colour to the village.

I don't think it went to the wall. I think he made a decision to reverse out of the trade to do something else. I always had good dealing with him and sold him cars over the years. Very straightforward bloke.

There seems to be a chap sat in there most weekdays watching tv, on his own in an empty showroom. Nice work if you can get it I suppose laugh

good guys, I bought a 355 from them earlier this year. Didn't go pop, just focussing on trading cars rather than retailing and therefore didn't need the showroom.

Looks like the showroom is in use again, different company but similar cars.

It's the wrapping / detailing company that were there already. They have just taken over the showroom now too. Auto Trilogy I think they are called.
