What we mean by Franchised Motor Retailer

Franchised motor retailers operate on the same basis as Peter Vardy with retail premises for the brands we represent – BMW, Mini, Land Rover, and Jaguar. Their websites trade under the same name.

Short Term Promotions

If a competitor is running a short term promotion we may not have had chance to compare their price for sale. In these cases we may still consider a Price Promise.
