Andy Pressland - Murketts

[E46CSL]

..
... but I for one am not writing him off , so lets try and keep some humour going amongst the obvious sadness of Andy's current, and hopefully temporary set back !
..

Indeed :thumbs:

Each time I've dealt with him, he has given me the best service. I really do hope that things turn around.

I don't know Andy and have never dealt with Murketts. Most of my friends have and all bar non always spoke very highly of him, his service and his enthusiasm for BMW. I'd like to add my sorrow at hearing this news. There are very few people in the motor industry like him.

On a positive note, as mentioned miracles do happen. I'm sure he'll be in our thought's and those that do, their prayers.

Obviously I have never met the guy but have heard nothing but praises about him.

I know what it's like to have someone diagnosed with cancer; my brother was diagnosed with it a couple of years back and very luckily survived the subsequent treatment, only to have a stroke 5 years later after being given the all clear from the doctors - Somebody high above must have been looking after him and he survived that without any subsequent side effects (he's a very lucky soul - if you could call getting cancer and stroke lucky, surviving it definitely is). He is now as healthy as ever - so miracles do happen.

My best wishes go out to Andy and hope a miracle will happen upon him also.

Glad to hear your bro pulled through Tom

Hi,

I do not know the Guy or have used Murketts, but its
pretty obvious the Guy went the extra yard,
even more at times for the CSL brigade.

So how about the CSL Brigade go that extra
mile in return now ?

Not sure if BMW AG or BMW UK would assist with
something, but genuine appreciation is so
much more than just words, and should always
be made in person, not on a Card.

Some have mentioned Miracles, well you need to
give a person a beleif for that, not just polite words.

Having been to the dark side briefly in 2002, and
as much as luck was involved, you still got have the
burning desire to dispel whatever life may throw your way.

''Andy's CSL Christmas'' at say Murketts, or where ever,
but I am sure there are more than just one or two
current or even ex CSL owners, who would be up for
something like this.

Regards,

The Gorilla.

Good idea, would of course be Andy's call to make ...

Horrible illness and im gutted for Andy but lets hope the prognosis improves and Andy is meanwhile in as little pain as possible.

The guys at Murketts said that Andy has not been seeing many visitors but would let us know it it changes, he has been understandably weak.

I wonder if he has the strength for a lap or two of Silverstone or Rocky with Duncan and us. Duncan doesnt go that fast..........:whistle:

Im up for anything and I will put it in an email for an open invitation if he feels up for it. Lets face it he has earnt a few laps or a small get together of CSLs.

[Dan_csl]

That is terrible news indeed! Absolutely gutted to hear of this news, very sad indeed, Andy has been charming and a lovely guy to deal with in the short space that I've known him, gutted we never actually got to meet!

As has already been said my thought's go out to him and his family.

[shimmy]

I mentioned that I still owed him a track day when he is up for it in a mail to him this pm mate, more the merrier though !

[Bounce]

Very sad news indeed.Andy is a top bloke and my thoughts are with him and his family.Andy helped me out a couple of times with a sticky warranty claim.

I too am up for anything and I'm happy to go out of my way to get something organised for Andy P :thumbs:
I know Andy wanted to come along to one of our Ring/Spa trips, passenger seat was offered but Andy's luck of days off work followed by the illness flaring up, put a stop to it last time.
Just an idea but... how about an M3 / M3 CSL only, private Track Day on one of the local circuits (Bedford, Snetterton, Silverstone ) organised by us, for Andy.
Maybe get BMW UK / BMW Murketts involved too.
