A new £4.5 million car dealership has celebrated its first week of opening by receiving a top award from BMW.

The new Lister Park dealership in Sticker Lane, Bradford, opened seven days ago and has reported a brisk level of trade at its new location.

Now the dealership has been awarded the prestigious BMW Quality Mark Award, following a two-year assessment carried out by independent auditors.

As part of the programme, seven separate mystery shoppers were sent in to test each of the company's departments.

Company chairman Jack Tordoff said he was delighted that the company had received the award after receiving an "excellent" score of 84 per cent.
