Tom Farmer aged 84, died yesterday - he ran Kwik-Fit and other chains for all of his working life starting with 1 in Edinburgh. He then bought chains & branches before selling off & buying back chains & branches over the decades. Always bought well and sold very well.

£1Bn from Ford was his biggest single deal.
