    Howards Motor Group Achieves Highest Reputation Score in the UK among AM100 Retailer Groups

    Howards Motor Group's top-ranking status as the highest-scoring AM100 retailer group in the UK for Reputation underscores its commitment to setting new standards in the automotive sector.
Howards Motor Group proudly announces its exceptional recognition as the highest-scoring AM100 retailer group in the UK for Reputation, according to the latest rankings for the entire AM100 automotive retailer groups published by Reputation yesterday.

Howards Motor Group achieved an outstanding Reputation Score of 855, securing the top position in the AM100 Dealer Groups scores. This remarkable score for Howards, coupled with a sentiment score of 92 and a perfect engagement score of 100, reflects the group's active involvement and proactive engagement with their customer base.

Reputation is an independent data science organisation that captures real world views on customer experience for businesses across the digital landscape. Reputation's 2023 report highlights the significant role of consumer feedback in the automotive industry. Despite industry challenges, such as economic uncertainties and higher car prices, there has been an 11% surge in automotive consumer review volumes in 2023.

Consumer feedback is identified as a crucial influencer in the automotive customer journey, with 84% of customers acknowledging that reviews significantly influenced their choice of dealership in 2023. Particularly noteworthy is the fact that 93% of Gen Z consumers rely on reviews for their purchasing decisions.

Chris Lee, Managing Director of Howards Motor Group, expressed his excitement about this achievement, stating, "Securing the highest score in the AM100 Dealer Groups for Reputation is a testament to our unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction and excellence. This is as a result of the dedication our teams have to going above and beyond for our customers and reinforces our position as a leader in the UK automotive industry."

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd T/A Howards motor Group 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 allow Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd T/A Howards motor Group 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 lender on our panel, which includes lenders of vehicle manufacturers. We have commercial arrangements with lenders and credit brokers which are likely to influence who we introduce you to. We are not an independent financial adviser and don’t give you any advice or recommendations. It is your choice whether you enter into any finance agreement.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked to the franchise offering you the vehicle. They will usually offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions (but we do not guarantee they do). If they are unable to offer finance, we then seek to introduce you to someone else on our panel. We will usually receive a commission for your introduction. This will be either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you choose.

    Lenders of vehicle manufacturers 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. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will tell you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receiving this commission. The exact amount of commission will be confirmed before you sign your finance agreement.

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