A ŜKODA was snapped up just one hour after the Westover Group’s latest showroom opened its doors at Wallisdown Road in Bournemouth.

Genni Hunt bought a brand new Fabia and, in the process, claimed her crown as the new dealership’s first ever customer.

Genni, who is an existing customer of Westover ŜKODA and a long time Fabia fan, traded in her old Fabia for a new and updated model.

“We were thrilled to have a customer keen to buy so soon after we opened,” said Sean Otton, Westover ŜKODA brand manager. “It seemed very fitting that the first vehicle went to someone who’s tried and tested our vehicles and chosen to return to the ŜKODA brand.

“Our first week was busy in more ways than one – meeting and serving sales and service customers, as well as finding our way around the showroom – but feedback has been unanimously good, with customers praising the new location for its clean and fresh look, its improved stock levels and easy parking. We were visited by many of our existing clients and sold more than 20 cars in our first week, so we’ve got off to a cracking start. Anyone who would like to pop in and see our new facilities for themselves is very welcome to do so.”
