Bristol Street Motors Ford Kings Norton has been recognised for its excellent work with the Motability Scheme.
Simon Parker, the dealership’s Motability Specialist, was presented with the Q2 Motability award by Dealer Development Manager Paul Kellyas part of a programme launched by Motability Operations. The award recognises and rewards the outstanding service Simon and his colleagues deliver to customers throughout the year.
The Kings Norton Business Park dealership has now been automatically entered into the national, annual awards which will be announced in full at the beginning of 2017.
The Motability Scheme enables anyone who receives the Higher Rate Mobility Component of the Disability Living Allowance, the Enhanced Rate of the Mobility Component of Personal Independence Payment, War Pensioners’ Mobility Supplement or Armed Forces Independence Payment to exchange their weekly payment to lease a new car. Insurance, servicing, RAC breakdown assistance and replacement tyres are included in the cost of the lease.

“The Motability Scheme is a fantastic programme which enables thousands of people every year to stay mobile and for many people, it is crucial in maintaining their quality of life, so we’re very proud to be part of that.
“We look forward to continuing our award-winning approach to business and customer service and hope to welcome many more Motability customers through our doors.”
