THE prestigious Car Dealer Magazine Used Car Awards are almost here and we can now confirm the finalists who will be in with a chance of winning big on the night!
This year we received more entries than ever and those dealers and dealerships that have made it into the final line-up have already proved their standing as the best around.
The awards ceremony itself takes place on Monday, November 26 at The Brewery in London, and Rebecca Chaplin, head of editorial at Blackball Media, the publishers of Car Dealer Magazine, said: ‘The Used Car Awards evening is always fantastic – it’s a great way to kick off the Christmas season while celebrating the best of the best in the used car sector.
‘Once again, the evening will be hosted by the legendary Mike Brewer, and Mike also chairs the judging panel, which will be drawing up the shortlist of contenders. We can’t wait to crown another batch of winners and give them the praise and recognition they deserve.’
Now we’re preparing to celebrate with the winners on the night, so don’t miss out and book your table now by emailing events co-ordinator Amanda Philp via [email protected] or phoning on 023 9252 2434.
