I have worked for Harris Oceanside Chevrolet Buick GMC Ltd for 16 years now, I started as a detailer washing cars on our lot in January 2006. I worked my way up making my way through Parts and Service before settling in Sales. In 2010 I was appointed the Fleet and Small Business Manager. Harris Oceanside is a great place to work, the staff are great and fun to be around, the management encourage you to be the best you can and support you in every way possible. The training from General Motors of Canada is phenomenal. In my own time I enjoy being outdoors walking and cycling as well as playing Tennis, but not without my iPhone, I love listening to music that's my happy place. I also enjoy watching Soccer (English Premiership) and when I can going to Vancouver Whitecaps games, Formula One is another sport I watch religiously. I'm happily married to Janie for 18 years and we live in Qualicum Beach. Many happy customers, contact me to join the Happy Car Buyers club!

I am extremely happy on how they listened to what I needed and also helped with other options to look at in my search. I have dealt with the Harris Oceanside Chev dealership for many years and have never been disappointed in their service and how I have been treated. They offer quality vehicles and service. I would recommend them for sure. Richard Allan was very very informative and when met with 100 questions and some frustrations when buying a vehicle, he was very supportive and offered other options to look at. Very professional. Although the coffee and hot choc. was very good, I couldn't find where they hid the boston cream donuts. I don't want to forget Annie Coopman either. She was extremely helpful with the financing and easy to talk to. Very professional. More
