Tonight the winners of the Used Car Awards will be revealed by host and Wheeler Dealer star Mike Brewer and James Baggott.
Broadcast on the homepage of our website and the Car Dealer Magazine YouTube channel as a premiere at 6pm tonight, the Used Car Awards will announce the winners of 20 dealer awards and eight manufacturer gongs.
Brewer will be road testing the contenders for our overall Used Car of the Year category and we’ll be celebrating the best in the used car business.
Brewer said: ‘It’s been a tough year for the motor trade, but also one of many great successes. Car dealers have radically changed their businesses to cope with the pandemic and our Used Car Awards celebrate some of the very best.
‘We’ve got some amazing stories to tell and I cannot wait to hand out the awards, virtually of course, in our video premiere tonight at 6pm.
‘We’d much rather be celebrating with everyone at the live event at The Brewery, but unfortunately Covid killed that off this year. We will be back there as soon as we can, though!
‘Until then, we’d like to thank all our sponsors for keeping the event alive and kicking in the digital world and I’m sure it’ll make some great Friday night entertainment finding out who has won what.’
Mike and James will reveal the winners and two highly commended places in each category in the special show.
James added: ‘We’d all much rather be celebrating these awards together at The Brewery like we do normally but, just like the dealers, we’ve had to adapt and change the way we do things this year.
‘These digital awards will be just as much fun as the usual event – you’ll just be watching them at home.
‘We hope the nominated firms and the rest of the car industry can watch together virtually in the comfort of their own homes and enjoy some motor trade entertainment during lockdown.’
