He Nearly Died… Then Built A Car Sales Empire

At 50 years old, Sheik Hassan’s heart was functioning at just 10 percent. Doctors told him to slow down. Most people would have retired. Sheik did the opposite. He went all in — and built a £31 million used car empire. In this raw and powerful episode of DealerPod, Sheik shares the full story behind his rise in the motor trade. From losing everything when interest rates hit 15 percent, to living with his wife and three kids in one room, Sheik opens up about the pain, the pressure, and the relentless drive it took to build Motor For You into one of the UK’s most impressive car supermarkets. You’ll hear how a life-threatening heart attack didn’t break him — it ignited him.
