  • Luxury supercar dealer Tom Hartley has opened the doors to his £10m showroom for Car Dealer Magazine as part of our Selling Supercars video series.
    Hartley explains what drives him, how he started in the car industry and his secret to his sales success - and even takes us for a spin in a £2.4m Ferrari LaFerrari.
    Hartley has been in the motor trade for 50 years and now runs the supercar selling estate alongside his son Carl. He reveals why he still loves selling cars five decades after he began.
    Sat alongside some supercars costing millions of pounds, Hartley says he has sold some of the most expensive cars in the world from his dealership. Find out why he loves this industry so much in this video interview.

      @@pb3382 You didn’t even acknowledge my aforementioned point which shows how thick you’re. Stop trying to be cantankerous, and just respect the fact that some people state the truth that hurts others! It’s a well known fact, that derby in general is a shit hole, industrial area. The Derbyshire countryside is quite pretty, but that doesn’t stop the peasants that live there, hence they live next to average houses and a mobile home park. Not to mention it’s significantly cheaper. I have lived 6 months in derby whilst I was on a placement at university 6 years ago, trust me I know my shit. The average house price is 3/4 times cheaper than where I live for the same sort of property. Their houses are beyond garish, learn your place. Finally, if you knew anything about the English language, you’d realise it would be envy not jealousy. Jealousy is to do with relationships, envy - things - typically materially. Now I’ve cremated you, I suggest you stay quiet! 😂
