Who is Isaac Agnew?
Isaac Agnew, one of the UK’s top 25 franchised dealers, operates 16 dealerships representing nine brands, including Audi, Porsche, BMW, Mini, Mercedes-Benz and Volkswagen, primarily around the Belfast area. Although Isaac Agnew’s business had in fact been up and running since 1931, the appointment as Northern Ireland’s first Volkswagen distributor was the real foundation for future success. The Isaac Agnew Group now represents no less than 11 automotive franchises.
Who took over for Agnew?
After months of maintaining his innocence, Agnew pleaded no contest to a single felony charge of tax evasion and resigned from office. Nixon replaced him with House Republican leader Gerald Ford. When Nixon resigned on August 9, 1974, Ford automatically assumed the presidency, taking the oath of office in the East Room of the White House. This made him the only person to become the nation’s chief executive without being elected to the presidency or the vice presidency.
