Shame to lose garage

Published: 14 January, 2011

• AT a time when firms should be given more support and assistance to grow and survive, it’s so sad to see a long-standing part of the business community, Colliers Cars in Upper Street, Islington, end its business journey at the start of the New Year.  

Though there are many reasons why the garage must now close, that does not make it any easier for clients and the proprietor of the firm. No business closure is any less significant than the next but for more than half a century Colliers Cars has added to the diverse nature of the town and it will be a real shame to see the team go.
