15^th July 2009 Press Release For Immediate Release MR ‘FORD UK’ VISITS NEW FORD DEALERSHIPS Nigel Sharp, Managing Director of Ford Britain paid a visit to the two newest Ford Dealerships in the UK yesterday. The brand new Hills Ford dealerships in Kidderminster and Malvern were launched last week by Tim and Richard Hill, following the demise of Brooklyn Ford. The brothers and joint managing directors of the new company were delighted to welcome the man who heads up Ford in the UK and to share their plans for the future with him. “It was great to get a visit so soon after opening from the main man in the Ford organisation,” said Tim Hill, “and he was impressed by what we had to say and what we had to show him. His visit rubber stamped Ford’s approval of our launch and he spent time meeting members of our team and looking around the facilities we have here.” “He was pleased that our new venture was able to secure the jobs of 40 people from the Brooklyn operation who transferred across to us, ensuring there was no break in the service being offered to Ford customers in the area,” said Richard Hill. “Whilst it’s been a tough time for the automotive sector in recent months, he was delighted with the progress we have made already here and the optimism we have for the future, based on the family business ethos we have brought to the two new dealerships.” The new dealerships have launched with a range of special offers just for the month of July that include 0% finance on selected used Fiestas, a free iPod with the first 30 cars purchased from the new dealership, 25% off all Ford scheduled servicing, MOTs for £29-99 when booked in July and taken before the end of September and an air conditioning offer – you can have your car’s air conditioning system refreshed and sanitised for just £24-99!
