Western Motors Achieve Double Victory at 2024 SIMI Awards

We are incredibly proud of our WM teams once again! They've achieved double victories at the 2024 SIMI - Society of the Irish Motor Industry Awards. Our Galway branch clinched the Regional award for Electric Vehicle Dealership of the Year, while our Drogheda branch rightfully earned the title of Franchise Sales Operation of the Year. The dedication and relentless efforts of our teams has truly paid off, and Simon and I couldn't be prouder. It was a fantastic night celebrating and mingling with our industry peers and friends. Thank you to our team, the team at SIMI, the team at The Clayton Ballsbridge, the MC on the night Simon Delaney and all who were involved in the event. Congratulations to all the winners on the night. #SIMIAwards2024

As our Digital Dealership grows we know that more buyer confidence is needed throughout the online buying process and to assist we have introduced the Western Motors Group Used Car Grading System. The system has been devised to offer more transparency to our customers and to provide an easy guide as to the quality of the used car being sold.
