Wheeler Dealer Awards...

MOTOR MALL finished runners-up and were highly commended in the prestigious Car Dealer Magazine Wheeler Dealer awards held at The Brewery in Central London.
Nominated in the Used Car Dealership of the Year – 50 to 100 stock category –
Motor Mall were edged out only by Aylesbury-based Lodge Garage Mazda.

Car Dealer Magazine is the only glossy, A4 monthly magazine for the motor trade, while the Wheeler Dealer Awards were presented by TV personality Mike Brewer, who fronts the show of the same name on the Discovery Channel.
Said Jacksons (CI) operations director Paul Kell: ‘We are very proud to have been named as runners-up in a national awards.
‘We believe it is a first for a Channel Islands motor company.

‘It was an achievement to have been nominated and made it through to the shortlist and recognises our commitment to providing Motor Mall customers with a wide range of quality pre-owned cars, in addition to the large selection of new cars available from our nine franchises, and supporting that with quality sales and after-sales service. Our team works really hard at providing the best deals and most professional levels of service to local customers – it’s very satisfying to have their efforts recognised as being industry-leading in the UK.’

Land Rover Master Technician...


JASON MILLER has completed his Master Technician qualification for Land Rover and is in the process of doing the same for Jaguar.

 The 41-year-old has been completing online assessments and attended practical and theory assessments at the Land Rover base at Leamington Spa.

The qualification requires continuous updates with two or three courses per year in order to keep up with the latest technology. Jason is away for two days at the start of next week for an introductory course on the new Range Rover, which is due to be launched in Jersey early in 2013.

Jason studied at Highlands College from the age of 17 and completed his apprenticeship at St Helier Garages, the then Land Rover/Jaguar dealers. He has remained with the franchises ever since.

Jason enjoys cycling and races for the Caesarean Cycling Club and Jersey. Each year he completes the l’Etape du Tour, an event that allows amateur cyclists to complete a stage of the Tour de France and in May next year he will be completing the Gran Fondo New York, a 177 km mass participation race around New York and New Jersey.

Count Puccila in a spin...

General Sales Manager, William Pucci, gets in to the spirit of things (pardon the pun) for the Motor Mall Halloween 'Spooktacular' last Thursday. Some say it's a shame he didn't wear fancy dress!

Great fun!

Welcome Kevin!

Kevin Le Vallee is the man of the moment! He’s the new sales executive at Motor Mall and Jacksons on Guernsey, the largest multi-franchise motor dealership in the Channel Islands.
Young Kevin was born on Guernsey, to local parents, and is currently in the process of renovating his home near the beach, where he enjoys evening walks with his wife.
Since beginning his consistently successful career in auto sales, he reckons he’s sold more than 1,000 cars. He started out working for Volvo, followed by Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche, and for the past two years he’s been selling Honda.
Of his new position, he says, "I’m delighted to be joining an established company with a pro-active approach to improving customer care and service. Now, with an amazing sixteen brands on-site, I have the perfect opportunity to offer both new customers and my existing clients an extremely impressive range of superb cars."
Kevin leads a busy life, but still finds time to enjoy his numerous hobbies, which include surfing, snowboarding, photography, travel, reading, cars (of course!) and movies.
He and his wife have just returned from what he describes as a fantastic holiday to celebrate their first wedding anniversary. “We visited Venice, Rome and Paris,” he says, "and really enjoyed the sense of history in seeing ancient buildings and wonderful architecture."
Now he’s back on Guernsey, refreshed, bright-eyed and bushy tailed - and ready to make his name at Motor Mall and Jacksons!

Skoda Citigo Winner...

General Sales Manager, William Pucci, presents Skoda Citigo winner, 
Graham Goodyear, with the keys to his prize.
Former Road Safety Officer Graham Goodyear was the winner of the Skoda Citigo in the Motor Mall/Jersey Evening Post competition last night. His immediate reaction to his good fortune was to describe it as 'unbelieveable'.
Twenty finalists attended at the Mont a l'Abbe showroom and took it in turns to choose an envelope containing a car key - and it was Mr Goodyear who's key unlocked the door with the 12th pick.
'The odds were going down with every person who's chosen key didn't unlock the car. They were down to 9/1 when it came to me but I don't win raffles or prizes so this is just fantastic.
'My wife, Jean, and I collected the tokens between us and she is away at the moment trekking on Machu Picchu in Peru so I finished off sticking on the tokens and dropped the completed voucher off at Motor Mall. When I saw the number of entries in the glass box I didn't think we had a chance so it was really nice to get that letter saying we were in the top 20 and to turn up tonight.
'I was happy to get a slice of pizza but I never expected to win the car. I took the decision to choose the first envelope I touched rather than rummaging through them and that proved correct. It really is unbelieveable.'
Having texted his wife to say they had made it to the last 20, he was looking forwarded to sending another text last night and will be meeting her at Jersey Airport in their new Skoda Citigo when she returns to the Island next week.

Citroën DS3 Cabriolet

New Citroen DS3 Cabriolet will arrive in showrooms next year, and this image shows how it could look.
A cabriolet version of the Citroen DS3 has been confirmed for next month’s Paris Motor Show. But in a surprise move, it won’t use a conventional electric folding cloth top. Instead it will have a roll-back fabric roof. We just need a better summer, next year, to take advantage of it!
