Auto Trader Retailer Awards 2020 winners

26 October 2020

Luscombe Motors has repeated its 2018 victory in the Auto Trader Retailer Awards, winning Retailer of the Year prize for businesses selling over 100 cars.

Cedar Specialist Cars was named Retailer of the Year for businesses selling under 50 cars. Alex Scott Cars is Retailer of the Year for retailers selling 50-100 cars. All three businesses represent the very best in the UK automotive retailing sector, says Auto Trader.

One of the largest mystery shopping exercises of its type saw 1,000 of Auto Trader’s best-performing retailers whittled down to 434 via telephone interviews, then 150 via a personalised video tour, with three taking the overall prize: Harvey Cooper Cars, Martin Brothers Motor Group and The Donalds Group.

A total of 18 trophies were presented in the 2020 awards, with Car Quay’s Jamie Caple taking Rising Star.

“We’ve been amazed at just how successful some retailers have been at adapting to the unprecedented challenges of Covid-19,” said Auto Trader CEO Nathan Coe. “In this climate, we think it’s more important than ever to step back and recognise true retailing excellence.

“Based on the most comprehensive judging process, there is no doubt that this year’s winners are incredibly deserving and truly represent the very best of our industry.

All winners receive assets to promote their success, including digital logos, social media posts and window stickers.
