Title: Re: Christmas Quiz Post by: peterbaker on 27 December, 2007, 11:25:30 AM Hi Robin, compliments of the season to you and Margaret. Well done, how about the next question?
Title: Re: Christmas Quiz Post by: Dilambdaman on 27 December, 2007, 12:54:51 PM Thanks Peter, seasons greetings to you and Lin.
And the question is: Who held the Lancia agency in Mid-Sussex in the 70s/80s and who was the Managing Director? Robin. Title: Re: Christmas Quiz Post by: chriswgawne on 07 May, 2018, 09:49:34 AM Sounds good, although I think Langley Motors may have taken on the BMW agency by then. Your turn My latest Lancia acquisition was sold new in November 1967 by Langley Motors, Portsmouth Road, Thames Ditton so they were still Lancia dealers then. However I think they had also become BMW dealers as well by then and continue as such to this day. Chris |
