Prestons BMW in Colne has appointed a new dealer principal, Richard Hargraves.

Mr Hargraves has spent seven years working his way up the ranks at the Almondbury BMW dealership in Huddersfield.

"In my new role as dealer principal at Prestons my biggest challenges will lie in the ongoing successes of our new models, the C1 motorcycle and the Mini. These launches have been key to my main ambition for the business, which is to develop it into one of the premier BMW dealers in the country."
