outstanding Scion FR-S. Over on the SUV side, check out our
reviews of the stunning new BMW X5 xDrive35i, Hyundai Santa
Fe XL and top-of-the-line Honda Odyssey Touring.
To help you with your full driving needs, one of our own resident
marketing coordinators weighs in with his top driving apps for your
smartphone, and our OpenRoad parts experts guide us with their
top-five must-haves and tips for winter parts and accessories.
On the people side we’re pleased to feature BC’s minister of
education, The Honourable Peter Fassbender, and his sporty new
MINI Cooper that he affectionately calls The MINIster. In his
previous role as mayor of the City of Langley, we could not have
had a better partner in building The Langley Auto Collection
into what it is today. Just ask our project director, Moe Saboune,
who carries the day-to-day responsibilities for construction and
project management. We have a staff spotlight feature on Moe, his
OpenRoad projects and his passion as a world-class dragon boat
racer, too.
Sometimes it feels like our auto group is on a fast track with our
expansion and growth plans. Moe lives it every day and so do all 600
of our staff associates. And sometimes the pace is dizzying, but it’s
all part of our quest at OpenRoad to find a better way to serve the
needs of our guests. As we enter a new year, thank you for being part
of the OpenRoad family, and for helping us to deliver on our quest.
