On to the next chapter!
8 oktober 2026, PaulRecently I woke up early on a Saturday with complete mental clarity: I am going to stop with Doesburg. I asked myself: what makes me happy and what does not? And yes, I really love selling cars on Saturday mornings. But alongside that, I lead #DCDW and Carmen Automotive BDC with my partners, I run Il Fienile De Steeg together with my wife, I am an ambassador for Marktplaats and I do a few other things as well. So is it wise to keep holding on to Doesburg? The answer is no!

So we are going to sell
That Saturday morning I drove to the business and told Thymen, Luke and Daan about my decision. And yes, I also asked them whether they would be interested in continuing the business themselves. Of course, it may not be the best moment to make a decision like this, but sometimes you only get one chance…
And that chance is open to everyone, because I am looking for a new entrepreneur who wants to continue the Experience Store and Ligier Doesburg. The business is up and running. More than 20 cars are sold every month, there is a workshop, there are good websites, a solid infrastructure, a nice and clean building, and a delivery and photo studio. In other words: all the ingredients are there to take a great step, for example for two business partners.
Among other things, we specialise in selling Lynk & Co and BYD models, and more than 200 five-star reviews have already come in on our two Google Business Profiles. That is proof of our customer focus.
Offer
You can of course take over the BV (private limited company), with all the opportunities it holds to grow further. And even if you do not have much starting capital, I am happy to help if you have a good plan. Or you could, for example, start your own general partnership (VOF) and rent the building, the inventory, the name and everything that goes with it from me. Then you could, so to speak, start tomorrow. With a good plan, I can move quickly. Even buying the building is an option. See: Funda in Business

Support
In addition, and perhaps even more importantly, I can be your partner in the start-up phase, and perhaps later on too, to make the business a success for you. In what form? I have no idea. Everything is open for discussion. And above all, it is great fun to challenge (young) entrepreneurs to come up with new ideas, visions and perspectives. Who knows where that might lead. Are you interested, or do you have an idea for Doesburg? Let me know!
