This is the big place at the end of the M65 on your right.

Always some nice stuff in - odd Ferrari or Lambo.

Anyway, was driving through Preston on Friday when i saw a grey BMW 1 series with 'LLOYD BMW COLNE' all over it. Looked like a courtesy car. Have Lloyds bought the place off Prestons - remember it was always 'Prestons BMW Colne'.

Lloyds are a fairly rapidly expanding group from Carlisle if it's the same crowd.

Yes it's no longer Prestons, Lloyds took it over a month or so ago. I live quite close, allways nice to see the odd Ferrari in.

I drive past this place every day to/from where i currently work. I wondered why there's a ferrari in the showroom when its a BMW dealership? Also think I see one of the dealer's in the morning in a purple 3 series coupe commuting with me from Manchester. Might pop in one day, I hope they've got a better attitude towards customers than the Manchester dealers!!

We've never had any problems with them, in fact we switched from the one at Accrington after the purchase of our first mini due to thier abysmal after-sales service. Preston's/LLoyds even organised a thing for all the mini owners when the new Italian Job came out were they booked Burnley cinema, had a mini convoy from Colne to the cinema, £15 a ticket for charity and we got to see the film before it was premiered in London!
