    A new Service Manager in Howards Peugeot Weston-super-Mare

    It has recently been announced that Micheal Bavin will retiring in June this year, after providing 27 years of service at the Howards Peugeot Weston-super-Mare branch.

 

After 27 years service at Howards Peugeot Weston-super-Mare, Michael Bavin has announced that he will be retiring from the company at the end of June this year. Until then Mike will be undertaking a number of important Aftersales projects on behalf of the Howards group as a whole. Mike has made a huge contribution to the retailer over many years and will be greatly missed on his departure in the middle of the year.

The challenge of replacing Mike has fallen to another of Howards most talented and motivated Service Managers, Dave John. Dave is taking up the reins and returning to manage the Service Department at Weston-super-Mare following many successful years leading the Service Department at our Peugeot site in Taunton.

Dave has a wealth of experience with Howards and the Peugeot brand. After starting with the Group in January 1994 as a service technician, he worked his way through the ranks from Master Technician to Workshop Controller and then onto Service Manager at our Honda branch in Weston-super-Mare.  He remained there for 7 years during which time he took the Service department to 1st place in the UK for customer satisfaction.

Dave is delighted to be back on home ground as he lives with his family in Weston-super-Mare and this is where it all began for him back in 1994.  When you are next in the area pop in and Dave will be happy to introduce himself.  He prides himself on providing excellent customer service whilst ensuring customers receive the quality of workmanship and value for money expected from the very best of dealerships.  Dave and his team look forward to welcoming you to Howards Peugeot in Weston-super-Mare in the very near future.

  • 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.
