“The lot King” I started my Owasco Volkswagen journey almost 6 years ago now where I started as a general labourer organizing the lot, cleaning cars, putting window stickers in cars, and just picking up loose ends around the dealership in efforts to create the ultimate customer experience at Owasco Volkswagen. As I changed roles in the dealership while attending York University I began selling cars by appointment while also working on the lot. I moved my way through the dealership to inventory manager to assistant sales manager and now I am in my current role as a Sales Manager where I have been in this role for about a year and a half.

Working for a family-owned company rather than a “dealer group” the following of not only VW enthusiasts but Owasco Volkswagen enthusiasts is what I value most about working here. Owasco Volkswagen is the type of place where hard work does not go unnoticed. Acting in a customer experience-based atmosphere is what I feel separates us from the rest.

In a changing sales landscape where access to hundreds of dealerships is only a click away really all you can do to set yourself apart from the rest is to sell your service and the dealership. This is why in a management role I believe in leading by example and trying to be the hardest-working guy on the sales team. At the end of the day without our customers, we are just a big parking lot.

As a member of the Owasco hockey team in my time away from work, I enjoy playing hockey, baseball, and golf. I’m also a huge NFL fan. If I’m not at the golf course you can find me spending time with my friends or family.

If you are looking for a new set of wheels whether it be a new VW, a pre-owned VW, or an item from our non-VW pre-owned selection I would appreciate the opportunity to either expand or start your relationship with the Owasco Volkswagen team please feel free to contact me!

Fav VW has to be the GTI, it’s been so good for so long.

I have been at Owasco Volkswagen for 10+ years, and have 20+ years of sales experience.

I take pride in what I do, and joining VW Owasco Volkswagen was the best career move I ever did. Walking into this dealership feels like my second home, and I always ensure my loyal or new VW customers feel the same way. My goal is and always will be to ensure my customer’s transactions are as hassle-free as possible. I have a strong loyalty base, and I thank you for putting that trust in me over the years.

Now a little bit about me. I was born and raised in Europe (Croatia) and VW is the only vehicle I ever drove. I’ve been married for 24+ years to the best husband I could ask for, who is also my high school sweetheart and we have two wonderful teenage boys. Being so busy, I don’t get much free time for myself, but when I do, my passion is baking, reading and decorating.  I love crafts.

Looking forward to seeing you in the showroom, feel free to contact me via phone or email at any time.

Hi Everyone, I’m Limas and I am one of the Brand Specialists here at Owasco Volkswagen. I have worked in sales for many years, but I am fairly new to the automotive industry but I absolutely love it. My background is Cuban and I proudly speak English, Spanish & Italian! I have two wonderful kids, a boy and a girl, who I couldn’t be prouder of. When I’m not at the dealership, I love spending time with them … and watching UFC of course.

Hello everyone!

My name is Evan, it is a pleasure to introduce myself. I was born and raised in the Durham Region and have recently graduated from Wilfrid Laurier University with a degree in Business.

It is a privilege to be a new member of the Owasco Volkswagen family as a brand specialist. I have always loved cars and I am thrilled to be working in the car industry. My goal is to bring honesty, dedication, and most importantly a positive experience to our valued Owasco Volkswagen clients.

If you don’t see me at the dealership, you can find me fishing, on the basketball court, or walking my golden retriever, Rosie.

Come in to say hello, I look forward to meeting you in person.

Hello everyone! My name is Anvar and I am a proud new member of the Brand Specialist team here at Owasco Volkswagen.

Originally with a background in the IT industry, I’ve been involved in sales over the last 15 years, and in  my spare time enjoy listening to music from my vinyl record collection as well as attending concerts, and watching movies.

I enjoy meeting new people and sharing interesting stories and the occasional laugh, and taking that salesperson/client relationship to friends for life, and would be privileged to help you find a vehicle to have you as part of our Volkswagen family.

I’ve been in the car business since 2015. I’ve worked in several positions over the years. Sales Specialist, Financial Services Manager and Assistant Pre-Owned Sales Manager. Personally, I find the car business exciting and gratifying. My passion is to help people find the best fit for themselves and their families. In my spare time, I love to cycle and work on my car.

Everyone probably recognizes our Pre-Owned Brand Specialist Kyle since he’s been with our service team for over 8 years! His favorite VW model is the Golf GTI and has been awarded the 4 year Silver award. He took Business Management in school and is VW certified. Kyle is married and has a beautiful baby girl. His hobbies include boating, wakeboarding, and hockey.

I’ve been in the car business for 7 years. I drive a VW Jetta and am very enthusiastic about the brand. I also enjoy walking my Labrador and anything sports related. Viva Italia!

I’m Mike a.k.a Magic Mike, I’ve been with Owasco Volkswagen since early 2019 and I’m loving every minute of it! I’ve been in sales and customer service all my life growing in a home where real estate was always spoken about at the dinner table. I started marketing for my father’s brokerage at the age of 11 and was very successful at it.

Once finished at Seneca College I started my own marketing company and did that for about 10 years while expanding it and then selling to move on to work for one of the largest banks in Canada. Started off at TD Bank as a customer service rep and worked my way up to hiring manager and facilitator, but in the meantime, I won numerous awards for sales, customer service, and CEI (Customer Experience Index) for the next 15 years.

But I felt something was missing! I loved helping people but being a major Automotive enthusiast I thought dealing with cars and customers was my calling! I have a few cars of my own… but I’ve always had a special love for the Volkswagen brand. I’ve owned a bunch in my life starting with the 1st car that was a hand-me-down… my 1977 VW Scirocco in black was a 16-year-old boy’s dream. I loved that car! After that, I had a beautiful 1987 GTI 16V in Ruby red pearl!

Life is great and I`m here to help out anyone looking to get into a new ride at a great price!

Come in and see me!
