VISITORS to Perrys Peugeot in Bridgeman Street, Bolton, may notice something familiar about the company's new local business specialist.

Caroline Owen comes from a background of law and property, and deals predominantly with company car and van users on purchases and contract hire for fleets.

But that's not all. As Caroline Breeze, she also enjoys success as a professional singer. After knock-out performances at venues including the Last Drop, the GMP annual charity dinner and the BBC GMR tour bus, Horwich-born Caroline took time out following the birth of her son, Nathan. She has since obtained membership of the Associated Institute of the Motor Industry, a rare qualification within the motor trade, and continues to take specialist courses at the Peugeot Business Institute in Coventry.

"I think the singing jobs will be one-offs in future," Caroline said. "With this full-time job and a ten-month old baby, I certainly don't have as much spare time as I used to."

That said, she will be appearing as part of the on-pitch pre-match entertainment at Leigh Centurions on August 29, as part of a charity line-up sponsored by Perry's.
