    Default Galpin Ford about to become Lotus dealer with Sales and Service

    August 19, 2009

    In Los Angeles:

    Galpin Lotus, Thousand Oaks Lotus, and Newport Beach Lotus for Lotus warranty work.

    Welcome to Joe Van De Veere and the gang at Galpin at 800-256-6219. They are not quite ready yet over there but I'll post if I hear a date.

    Mulholland Motor Sports (310-360-0948) near Beverly Hills (Stephan), and Qais (310-200-0022) near LAX are great for non-warranty work on Lotus and all sports cars...

    Galpin has a very large Aston Martin sales/service division.

    So, we're in good company.

    They were talking about Galpin getting involved as a Lotus dealer in the Lotus booth at the L.A. Auto Show last year as they introduced the new Lotus Evora.

    Everyone was shocked about the sudden closing of Lotus Beverly Hills and no shop in that area.

    Stephan from Lotus Beverly Hills set up a great Lotus/Sports Car shop called Mullholland Motor Sports near Beverly Hills (http://www.mulhollandmotorsports.com), but warranty shops have only been in Thousand Oaks and Newport Beach.

    Van Nuys is a good in-between place for a Lotus warranty dealer.

    Galpin is now ready to do warranty work on Lotus cars.

    Not selling them yet, but shortly.

    The direct line to Joe's desk is 818-922-3644 and is the fastest way to get through to the new Lotus division there.

    Also - the direct line to their Lotus Service Writer (John Alavazo - a very good guy) is 818-922-3623.
