I’ve visited the guys at Alexander a couple of times and I have to say the whole team are just as described by Andrew. I haven’t yet bought a car from there but I would have no hesitation in doing so…
I would definitely buy a car from this company. Very professional and they dont push sales they just provide the knowledge in helping in the buying process and they do everything in house perfect
Great informative vid. Over the years of buying cars only half have been a good experience and like your interviewee said it should always be a good experience. I’ve got a Porsche Boxster 981 and I feel privileged and lucky to own and drive it, and I wonder if his customers feel the same way
A great series and insightful to hear their different philosophies and attitudes. The saying that people buy from people they are comfortable with is absolutely true: there are some high end car dealers I definitely would not trust.
Great video and Andrew and Alexander are true to their word. As a finance broker based locally to them I have worked on a few cars for customers and they have been noting but fantastic with myself and customer.
I probably will never have the money to go to Alexander’s but always take look every few weeks at the stock in some of these high end dealers. It’s great to dream and well just enjoy looking at Cars all be it online. Must emit Alexander’s has one of the cleanest user friendly sites I go to. Some are a bit of a dogs dinner and then some just nail it. Seen him on See through glass with Sam and it just comes over as a genuine dealer. Probably exactly what you would want if your lottery ticket ever came up. It must be scary times right now with prices crashing on some Cars. Car appreciation unless super rare is a thing of the past unless you really want the GT3RS 😂 Obviously Tom H is still the GOAT.
If you love your job and do it accordingly, working for someone who sees their job and whose goals are the same as yours is like working with your brother.
@@riggs1590 sorry for your family issues but I'm pretty sure you get the point of what I said. It's about having one or more things in common that make the collaboration seamless and smooth.
@@E1N9A8N0DA Yep, I got your point. My replies were tongue in cheek. However, when I'm up that way, it'll be worth dropping in and having a look around.
After watching your Video on Tom Hartley JNR and reading his father's feedback on Google and listening to him i know exactly why Tom jnr went his own way,
Those ratios of 71m to 1.5m pretax are just horrible. So much working capital tied up at some risk for a very small return…must be love because as a business it does not make much sense.
Really? Do you know how business works? That’s amazing profit. Look at their overheads, it’s massive. A lot of their revenue is due to the value of their products, they are very expensive cars. If they sell somewhere around 25 cars a month at approx 8k gross margin on each car they probably net around 4-5k off each sale. Mr Taxman then wants his share every quarter the b*stards!!
Tom Hartley Jr every time. These are just wide boys whose only interest is money. Tom has a proper haircut & doesn’t need to show all that forehead, he’s a smart guy with a knowledge of cars that can’t be learnt.
Know Andrew but he has totally lost his way on how he think he looks good, hair???? Peach chino's????😪😪😪 get you act together Andrew, we have to look at you when we call in!??🙈🙈🙈🙈
Hard business definitely, massive bankroll you need, good on the group, seems a lovely fellow Yorkshire man and team 👍🏼
Great Series! Thanks for the videos. 👍
Thank you!
Great movie, Andrew garage is awesome! Thank you guys for producing this content

Just hope yout clutch doesn't go after 4 months on a 22k mile car. They won't help
This firm set the bar very high. They lead the way and show the industry how it’s done. I’d buy another car from these guys in a heartbeat beat.
The clay bar 🤭

Thanks Mark, very glad you enjoyed it. We're hoping to do more. ^James
Seems a genuinely nice guy and good to see their way of working behind the scenes.
Great video and Andrew and Alexander are true to their word. As a finance broker based locally to them I have worked on a few cars for customers and they have been noting but fantastic with myself and customer.
Outstanding quality. Look forward to visiting for my next car.
there is lots of money out there- the skill is to bring it in your direction by doing everything that the customer can possibly imagine = success : )
Supercars sell themselves. You just have to convince the clients which one suits them best!! #feedtheirego

Tearing up paper … didn’t hear the please
Have used Alexander’s in the past and can say they where 1st class from start to finish
Amazing showroom, beautiful cars and very customer focused. Control seems to be the word used most. Wonder what its like working for Alexander's? 😂

Hope not. I don't like my brother 🙄

Great work ethic but many people have the same way of working as he does, me included!
I was shocked by his profits tho to be honest!!
Thanks alot
That Maserati paint looked very orange peely
Each to their own

I did interview his dad too in this series in case you missed it: th-cam.com/video/zVrP1LMok30/w-d-xo.htmlfeature=shared
I feel, Main dealers could learn something from Alexander’s, my experience of main dealers is usually poor
Those ratios of 71m to 1.5m pretax are just horrible. So much working capital tied up at some risk for a very small return…must be love because as a business it does not make much sense.
For context, the average return on investment for a car dealer in the UK is 1%
I have to be honest, no way, I don’t believe for one second that the profit is that low.
Miller Motors Greenwich Connecticut.
Is no one going to mention the trousers 😮😂 I mean seriously.
Lovely cars no doubt but what awful drivel from the owner, he is nowhere as unique as he thinks he is
£71m revenue with only £1.5m profit. Not much profit tbh.

@@Rafz90 The £1.5m was gross, not net.
@@alanwilliams1223 Even then i believe that’s the margins luxury car dealerships are working with so it’s a good profitable business.
Rafz90 Obviously doesn't know how business works
Purely for the tax man watching?
If you want to do poor commercial dealer let me know 🎉
These dealers put Porsche and Ferrari main dealers to shame ..
Cheers big ears 😂
Selling cars is passion for cars or dont do it
Fair play to you dealing with the rich arrogant scumbags .

That’s some melon. Thinks he’s Fabio
His hair is ridiculous
Know Andrew but he has totally lost his way on how he think he looks good, hair???? Peach chino's????😪😪😪 get you act together Andrew, we have to look at you when we call in!??🙈🙈🙈🙈
Absolute clip mincing about like a public school boy😂
He’d put you off buying from them to be honest
Bad experience with these. Wouldn't recommend.
