Hi everyone, i recently went to leamington which isnt too far from where i live, in Bedworth (near coventry), and i saw a mini garage there and thought that i would find out what dealer it was when i got home (never thoguht to look .. duh) and then use this dealer for getting some prices together etc. And i found the one on mini's website, it was a nick whale. and then i came in to here and searched 'leamington' just to see what was said about it, and everybody was speaking about damon hill warwick? so im confused? are they the same place? if not i don't suppose anybody has the address of the damon hill, as mini or google dont seem to know they exist. Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks a lot.

sorry mate your a few months too late, moved to stratford, just off A45, the good news is that they are now a stand alone mini dealer, opposed to sharing with BMW

and i think they are now called nick whale

Welcome to Nick Whale authorised MINI dealership

Thanks Nath that is helpful, but then confusing at the same time given the following reply haha, erm.. so the one in leamington is a nick whale now? and what used to be there has moved to stratford? is the one in leamington still good? (sorry if your reply answered that nath, but wasnt sure whether you specced your mcs before the change over or before?)
If there isnt good stories behind them.. looks like ill be trecking to stratford . as the only other ones near me are sytner, and they dont have a particular good right up by many people.
Thanks for the help.

no problem was actually invited to the opening of the new site and meant to go but forgot all about it.

If she still works there ask for Yvonne Hayes. She was very nice, friendly and went the full 9 yards for me in a Mini sense!

I went to the opening with Richard Crofts. Was fun. Free food, free drink (we stuffed ourselves silly) nice MINI's to look around (none as good as ours though! ) plus a stunt show by Paul and Russ Swift. I was sat in the boot of a car while he "parked" between two of them at high speeds with only a couple of inches spare. Thir driving is pretty interesting stuff.

The new site is pretty cool as its a stand-alone MINI dealership. Its just outside Stratford off the A46.
