    Howards Promise To Local School

    Howards Citroen and Kia will be taking part in a fundraising event to help raise money for a new outdoor play area for a Weston-super-Mare primary school.

Howards Citroen and Kia will be taking part in a fundraising event to help raise money for a new outdoor play area for a Weston-super-Mare primary school.

Locking Primary School is organising their biggest fundraising event of the year, the Auction of Promises family evening, to help provide new outdoor play facilities.

Howards in Weston-super-Mare have donated a voucher for a free service and MOT for the auction which will be held at the school on 26th April 2013.

A spokesperson for Locking Primary School, said: “This year we will be raising money to add to our all year round outdoor play area, which will greatly enrich the school environment for all the pupils."

“On behalf of the school I would like to thank Howards for their generosity and valued support.”

Tony Lippe, Howards Franchise General Manager, who offered the prize on behalf of Howards, said: “We like to get involved and help support our local community whenever we can."

“We have just opened our new Kia and Citroen showroom which we feel enhances the area and felt it was fitting to help one of our local schools improve their facilities for the children.”

The Auction of Promises will be a fun night for all involved with donated prizes auctioned off ranging from holidays, services or the opportunity for a pupil to be Head Teacher for the day.

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.

    All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18s or over. Guarantees may be required.
