Basil was born in New Delhi, India and has lived in Kenya and Uganda throughout his life. His grandfather was a doctor and his father retired an aeronautical engineer. Basil himself is the widowed father of two wonderful twin sons, Ryan and Neil. Basil enjoys working in the auto industry as he believes the sky is the limit; he has recently sold some cars on-line to customers which he found a very interesting experience. Being candid, truthful and sincere are characteristics Basil feels makes a strong salesperson, all three of which he demonstrates. Although Basil is a peaceful and calm man, don't think that he hasn't had some wild encounters. Basil has come face to face on three separate occasions when he was in east Africa, with a lion, an elephant and a hippo! He also survived an armed carjacking in Nairobi!

Just picked up my new Cadillac XT4 from Budds! And it's beautiful! With covid-19 and supply chain issues, this is an interesting time to factory order a car from any auto manufacturer, but Budds made it ha beautiful! With covid-19 and supply chain issues, this is an interesting time to factory order a car from any auto manufacturer, but Budds made it happen in a timely manner! Budds with Basil whom I have dealt with for many vehicle purchases did an awesome job keeping me updated and once built pushed to get delivery of the vehicle and into my hands! A big thank you to the whole team at Budds including of course Basil (sales), Craig (manager) and Rob (finance)! More
