Basil was born in New Delhi, India and has lived in Kenya and Uganda throughout his life. His grandfather was a doctor and his father retired an aeronautical engineer. Basil himself is the widowed father of two wonderful twin sons, Ryan and Neil. Basil enjoys working in the auto industry as he believes the sky is the limit; he has recently sold some cars on-line to customers which he found a very interesting experience. Being candid, truthful and sincere are characteristics Basil feels makes a strong salesperson, all three of which he demonstrates. Although Basil is a peaceful and calm man, don't think that he hasn't had some wild encounters. Basil has come face to face on three separate occasions when he was in east Africa, with a lion, an elephant and a hippo! He also survived an armed carjacking in Nairobi!

I called budds Chev on a Thursday morning to inquire about purchasing a new vehicle and was transferred to Basil I explained my situation and price range, by midday he had more options then I could coun about purchasing a new vehicle and was transferred to Basil I explained my situation and price range, by midday he had more options then I could count. By friday morning I had placed my down payment on a car that I couldn’t be happier purchasing. Budds Chev is the place to be if your looking for a stress free experience when looking for a new vehicle. They really want you to have the best experience even when the situation as to why you need a new car isn’t in your favour. Thank you to Basil, Shelley and the entire Budds Chev team for making my experience one to remember! More
