My visit to South #Wales this week also included visits to Griffin Mill Garages in #Pontypridd, which represents the Peugeot UK, Fiat and Abarth & C. Spa brands for Stellantis UK, Cawdor Motor Group, representing Vauxhall Motors Ltd in Llanelli, FRF Group (DS Automobiles UK and Vauxhall Motors Ltd) and Day's Motor Group (Peugeot UK and Fiat) in #Swansea. During my visit I experienced beautiful local products including Welsh Cakes and Bara Brith fruit loaf. I also marvelled at the life size pre-historic dinosaur replica models that adorn and add character to the large used car display at Day's Motor Group. Most importantly I met skilled and enthusiastic staff members at all sites, dedicated to success and the highest levels of customer service.

We’re delighted to share that Peugeot continues to be the UK’s best-selling electric van manufacturer in 2024! ⚡️ Not only that, from 2025, production of the fully electric E-Expert will begin at Luton, supporting British manufacturing. The new Peugeot E-Partner is already manufactured at Ellesmere Port, the UK’s first EV-only volume manufacturing plant. 🇬🇧 Earlier this year, Peugeot refreshed the entire LCV range with the newest all-electric models; E-Partner, E-Expert and E-Boxer, and we’re delighted to see the range topping UK’s electric van sales.

This afternoon I continued west along the South #Wales coast to #Swansea and visited the Stellantis UK site of Bassetts, which represents Citroën UK and Jeep. The dealership is characterised by energy – Josh a sales advisor in his early 20s and full of enthusiasm for Citroën, Jake a 17-year-old apprentice, who has just started his working life this week and Cory, a third-year apprentice, awaiting his final assessment results. A desire to learn and develop was evident from both Jake and Cory. I was delighted to meet Hew Bassett, third generation of the Bassett family and continuing a legacy of offering great service and a warm, welcoming showroom environment  for staff and customers. Thanks to Paul Nelson and Kevin Parry for the tour of the facility and introductions. Vigliotta Jason, Tara Lewis, Greg Taylor, Kristian Cholmondeley, Stephanie Howson, Mark Pickles

Later this morning I visited Evans Halshaw in #Newport, which represents the Vauxhall Motors Ltd brand for Stellantis UK. I met the excellent and very welcoming reception team and two very strong advocates of the Vauxhall brand in Robert Parry and Darren Bowen, who say that Vauxhall is for life. In fact, Rob assured me that if we cut him in half, he would have Vauxhall and the griffin logo running right through him, like a stick of rock! We discussed several business matters and I have made a commitment to visit in three months’ time to speak again. One final thought (as Newport is on the South coast of #Wales): Seagulls and automotive dealerships, are they a good mix??? James Taylor, Mark Pickles, Stephanie Howson, Andy Kite, Gary Bird

A sunny morning in the beautiful city of #Bristol, where I visited City Motors, a Stellantis UK site representing Peugeot UK, Citroën UK and SPOTiCAR UK. Our retail partner achieves 100% customer satisfaction in sales and in just a few moments of clear, professional communication we were able to understand how we can help and improve from our side. One of the most rewarding and delightful elements of the visit was the light of enthusiasm in the eyes of the people who work in the business. Well done Robin Cook. Let’s make progress quickly!

There are many aspects to excellence in Aftersales, many different roles and skills, but above all else, we live or die by how well we service and repair vehicles. So the thousands of Technicians within our Stellantis UK networks are our heroes day in and day out. Today I had the privilige to thank one of our longest standing colleagues, David Aliband from Startins of Worcester, who retires tomorrow after 50 years of service to our customers! (His first few years on FIAT and LANCIA, followed by an amazing 47 years on PEUGEOT!) What was particularly special was to hear from the team just how much they value David's loyalty, skills and knowledge, and how much they will miss him. We also took time to admire the New PEUGEOT e-3008 which was enjoying it's Dealer Launch Event on the same day, reflecting on just how far vehicles have developed over David's five decades working on them! And finally, a big thank you to the management team for your time today, it was great to hear how you are continuing to invest time and resource to continue to provide a fantastic customer experience. Many thanks Jordan Street Alexander Matthews Richard Newbold, and of course to our inspiring Regional Manager Tara Lewis!
