Pagani Official Dealer... At Last!!

[TWareham]

Finally... I heard about this a few months back and then all went quiet, again! I started to think they (owens) had got cold feet.

But it does make perfect sense and we wish them every success with it.

Good news I think for Pagani and the owners.

Best of luck to HR. With the main dealers, are they able to perform performance/part upgrades, or are all upgrades performed at the Pagani factory in Italy?

I did see this a while back and couldn't work out if John had moved from HROwen::Bugatti to Pagani ...

I wonder if that's the same John Morrison who used to work for Porsche. Sold me a GT3 some years ago and a really nice guy, old school as opposed to shiny suit brigade

So will HR Owen also be able to offer servicing and does this mean that Bob Forstner will have to drop his official Pagani dealership tag?

You've had some dealings with Bob Forstner so is it fair to say that he / they exaggerate slightly with some of the sales spiel? I thought that there hasn't been an official UK Pagani dealer since the demise(?) of Hudsons? Did Forsters claim / imply at one point to be an official Koenigsegg dealer as well? Too many questions! All I would say is that, if you look at Forstners website, it's misleading in terms of the cars they have available, because the images on the front page don't match up with the actual stock. (For instance, there's still a gorgeous blue Zonda S shown that they seem to have sold years ago!)

I thought BF had only claimed to be an "official" German dealer - but that with EU rules that effectively allowed him to be a dealer here and order RHD cars

Dont really understand that because if that were the case you would have Italian, Spanish and Greek Ferrari dealers supplying RHD cars into the UK

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
I think if you took it to court and had a go at Ferrari they would have to relent and what you've said would be right. Thing is, who can be bothered?

Don't think there were any official service dealers in the UK as Harry Metcalf sent his to Italy to be serviced although he mentioned that Bob Houghton was currently looking after several Zondas.
