This is a category that’s fiercely fought over and it was no different this year.
Our shortlisted dealers all offer superb service, proved by excellent online reviews.
However, overall victory really came down to Crompton Way Motors’ performance in the mystery shopping, said awards host Mike Brewer.
‘Our winner seriously impressed our mystery shoppers with a lightning-fast reply, friendly manner and excellent expertise,’ he added.
What’s more, it saw Crompton Way Motors going one better on its result in the same category last year, where it was highly commended. 2022 also saw it scoop the trophy for Used Car Dealership: Up To 50 Cars – which it did in 2020 as well!
Meanwhile, in 2021, it was highly commended in the Used Car Sales Team category.
Bolton-based Crompton Way Motors is family owned and run, and has been trading for more than 16 years now, building up a fabulous reputation.
Car Dealer founder James Baggott said: ‘Looking after customers is vital to success in business and used car dealerships are no exception to this.
‘Having impressed our judges enough to be highly commended in this category last year, Crompton Way Motors really showed our mystery shoppers that it was at the top of its game this year and thoroughly deserves this award.
‘Congratulations to everyone there!’
