We're here to add value to your business

Welcome to the first Heads-Up newsletter of 2017!

I trust you had a good break and are fired up for the inevitable challenges the New Year will bring. 

We at the IDA, together with Lightstone Auto, are more than ever focused on meeting your needs and adding value to your business and would like to reiterate our support and commitment to you, our valued Dealer Member.

To this end, I'd like to invite you to read the Year in Review from Pieter Wessels, Managing Director, Lightstone Auto, in this issue.

Going forward, we will continue to keep you abreast of developments in our fast-changing industry and will remain your partner in business!

All the best,

Robbie Starke
