Yep, top dealership for sales in some quarters apparently.

I know a few people who have found their overall service lacking some what. They delivered a V12 Vantage S to one of my customers for a 48 hour test drive. It wasn't very clean, in fact, it looked matte when delivered, and he asked me to valet it before he drove it!
