The best of the best in the used car industry were named at a glittering ceremony last night in London.
The Used Car Awards 2025, sponsored by Black Horse and hosted by TV’s Mr Wheeler Dealer Mike Brewer, showcased brilliance in the used car motor trade.
Things kicked off in style with a drinks reception, hosted by Motors, which also provided the post-awards fun casino as well.
A raffle in aid of automotive charity Ben was also held, with those taking part given the chance to win a variety of prizes. The total raised will be announced in due course.
Host Mike Brewer said: ‘Congratulations to all the winners – I loved handing out the gongs as I do every year. it’s great to see so many brilliant people from across our industry and celebrate together.’
Car Dealer editor-in-chief James Baggott added: ‘It was once again a privilege to honour the hard work that goes into delivering outstanding customer service across the used car market.
‘I know myself how hard this is and how you have to be absolutely dedicated to it. I applaud all those who won last night!
‘Congratulations to all the winners, nominees, and everyone who makes this industry what it is – here’s to a successful 2026!’
