Dear Customers of Speedway Motors, Past and Present
 
After 57 years operating in Victoria, it gives me both sadness and pleasure to announce that I'll be transferring ownership of the dealership effective January 9, 2012.
 
Founded by my father, Bruce Passmore in 1953 as a used car dealership and originally called Speedway Auto Sales, the dealership acquired the Volkswagen franchise in 1954. In 1955, the Porsche brand was added and in 1967 Audi was added making Speedway Motors the only dealership in Canada to carry all three brands under one stable. I joined Speedway Motors in 1971 and am retiring from this business after the sale completes. This dealership has been a family legacy and I've established so many close relationships over the years with my customers, suppliers and staff members. I will miss everyone.
 
The future owners are very reputable and honourable business people who also own numerous other car dealerships on Vancouver Island. German Auto Import Network (GAIN) currently owns Three Point Motors Victoria, Victoria BMW/Mini and Three Point Motors Nanaimo.
 
I'm confident that this transition will benefit our customers and that you'll see the continuation of our commitment to customer satisfaction. In fact, the faces of the staff that you deal with on a daily basis will be largely unchanged after the sale.
 
On behalf of our family, I would like to thank you for your support over the past years. It's truly been an honour serving you and your family.
 
Sincerely,
Roy Passmore
President and Owner
