Derek Warwick Honda Jersey was set up in 1989 and was the Flagship for my Dealership Group with 5 garages and a turnover of £50m employing 130 people.
I sold all my UK Garages in 2003, keeping the Flagship Honda Garage here in Jersey and have several property companies in the UK, building residential houses, plus a small commercial office block.
I built two of most spectacular homes here in Jersey, selling them both for around £20m.
