BEST MOMENTS
"The beauty of The Hartley estate is you can come here and see all these brands under one roof. As opposed to going to a Ferrari dealer, a Porsche dealer, a Mercedes dealer, they're here."
"Greed's a horrible thing in business. I've never begrudged anybody making profit on a car that we've sold, or regretted a deal that we've done. That's the difference between a businessman's mentality and an entrepreneur's mentality."
"You can't buy reputation. And you can't buy success; you have to make it."
"If you're an entrepreneur and you've got a vision, that's what you do. You see what you achieve. You already see it, and that's your goal, and you achieve it."
