Jim Reid- Director
After leaving school at the age of 16, Jim joined Harper Motor Company(Ford) in Aberdeen as a YTS Parts Person moving to Lawrence of Kemnay (Vauxhall) to finish his apprenticeship. Jim was asked to join the very successful sales team at LofK in 1993 and successfully attained position of Sales Manager in 1999. Jim left LofK to start his own business in December 2002 after 15 years service. "Starting my own business was the right thing to do, I wanted to provide customers with a traditional sales service where they did not feel under pressure, something I feel we have achieved"
We are always striving to better ourselves by taking onboard any suggestion made by our customers to better our Customer Care or our Aftersales Service, we have recently set up our very own Social Networking Site to help achieve this by posting Special Offers, Blogs and Latest News & Views, giving our Members a chance to interact with us Socially.

Gail Reid - Director
Joint Director… but importantly my wife and mother of our two teenage children, Laura and Liam. Gail has been the driver behind our success. When I came home from work one day as Sales Manager at a local car dealership and told her that I would love to start up on my own, she asked me ,what had taken me so long? With support like that you can’t go wrong. When we started in business back in February 2003, Gail and I were ‘Jim Reid Vehicle Sales’. We simply HAD to do everything ourselves. That meant buying, selling, answering the phone, washing, cleaning and polishing every car, collecting and delivering cars even cleaning the toilets I mean EVERYTHING, 7 days a week, this with two young children to bring up. Looking back it was only our joint determination to make the business work that has made us succeed. However without Gails support , I would never have achieved my dream. Thank You Gail. Gail will now be found in our cosy office taking care of paperwork and answering the phone.

Esther Rennie-Valter
