    Howards Apprentice Wins Top Peugeot Accolade

    It’s a proud moment for the Howards Peugeot dealership located at Searle Crescent, Weston super Mare, where our Technical Apprentice Dan Cook has won the prestigious ‘Peugeot UK Apprentice of the Year’ award. 

 

It’s a proud moment for the Howards Peugeot retailer located at Searle Crescent, Weston super Mare, where our Technical Apprentice Dan Cook has won the prestigious ‘Peugeot UK Apprentice of the Year’ award. Ran UK wide by Peugeot, Dan’s technical skills were pitched against other finalists from across the country culminating in a day of challenging practical and theoretical tests at Peugeot’s UK Head Office, located in Coventry. At the end of this rigorous and highly competitive day, Dan was unanimously voted as Peugeot’s top Apprentice for 2014, a fantastic achievement celebrated throughout our motor group. Later he was joined by his family for a celebratory dinner hosted by Peugeot in the evening, capping off a great day and year of hard work.

Following the announcement of his achievement Dan said: “I am absolutely delighted with winning this title and it’s great after the years of hard work I have put in to be recognised in this way. I would also like to thank the other more experienced Technicians I work with every day and my manager for the advice and support they have given me in developing my skills and securing the Peugeot Apprentice of the Year title.”

John Allan, the General Manager for Howards Peugeot in Weston super Mare said:

“We are so pleased for Dan on his fantastic achievement and proud of the skills and knowledge he has displayed. Not only has he become a real asset to our retailer with the technical expertise that he has developed but he is also a pleasure to work with and a very popular member of the workshop team. We look forward to his vital contribution to our Service Department in the years to come.”

At Howards we pride ourselves on providing a working environment that both supports and develops all our team members. We all have our fingers crossed for the 2015 awards!

  • 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.
