Yeah that's the Bowker BMW place isn't it?

Still not sure why Accy needs a car hire place though. I thought they were only really needed in cities that had an airport.

I use Speedy Car Hire near the police station when I need to hire a car if mine breaks down.

Yeah I suppose

I hadn't thought of that one. I just thought most people used a courtesy car if there's was in for repairs. Surely the cost of a car hire will be roughly the same as hiring a courtesy car.

You used to be able to hire them from the Peugeot garage. A friend of ours who can drive but usually cycles everywhere used to hire a car for holidays with the family. We've hired vans sometimes to help people with house moves.

Before Frasers merged with Eagle, Eagle were based in Dale Street Ossy and were owned by a chap called Albert Benson, He called his firm Eagle because when he first started he kept is small coach in a garage on Eagle Street of New Lane Ossy. I actually live on Eagle Street in the late sixties and in fact helped to pull that garage down as it had become danerous.

I used to live round the corner from the Fraser half! I parked my Hillman Imp in their garage.

Frazer eagle coaches are on shuttleworth business park near time tecnology park. If it is car sales id take a look as im after another car now but dont think they will have any Ford Sierra XR4x4s in lol.

The place on Milnshaw lane - Fraser cars - is going to be quality used car sales, servicing and repairs according to their website
The Clock garage (BMW) has had a sign in the window for a few weeks now saying it is going to open as Arnold Clarke's they own what used to be Central car sales, I think it mentioned it was gonna be their service centre but they also do car and van hire so will probably host both.
