Managing Director

Daniel has been in the motor trade all of his career. He started out at 16 years of age as an apprentice technician for Kent Police. A few years after qualifying, he migrated to the sales department in a main dealer for a large dealer group as a sales executive and then a fleet manager for a further 8 years. In 2011, DP Vehicles was formed to provide the highest level of service matched with what we believe to be the best selection of hand-picked cars. The rest is history.
