I think it's good to bring our dealers here and to network with other dealers, but also recognise the important work the dealers do across the various categories that are here this evening.

It's got great credibility, great judging, great vetting process.

It's just a really great awards to be a part of and hopefully help the business as we go forward.

Keep doing this! It's a fantastic great event, really well organised and we had a great time.

learning from them, networking with them - and celebrating the great industry we work in.
