A Birmingham car dealership has won a regional award in recognition of its excellent delivery of the Motability Car Scheme.

The accolade is part of a programme of awards launched in 2014 by Motability Operations to recognise and reward outstanding customer service provided by local Motability dealerships.

The Dealer Awards programme is designed to reward best practice and ensure all Motability customers receive exemplary customer service across the Motability Scheme’s national dealer network. The Awards are judged on how a dealer delivers the Scheme to customers, which is assessed by customer feedback and reviews of their performance.
