Garage pride over service
5:28pm Saturday 10th May 2008
A GARAGE in Malton is celebrating retaining its pole position when it comes to service satisfaction.
JB Motors beat off competition from 227 other dealers to become Vauxhall's number one dealer for 2007 for service satisfaction and its sales department gained second place to help the dealership attain the overall number one position.
Stuart Carruthers, the garage's retail operator, said: "We are delighted to be the UK's number one and believe that we have an advantage being a family business able to offer a more personal service with a genuine interest in our customers needs."
