We are now Open!

We are ready to welcome you back to our dealerships for both sales and servicing - but we want to do everything we possibly can to keep both our customers and colleagues safe.

On your arrival, you will see we are doing things slightly differently to help protect you and our colleagues. You will be given a warm welcome, as always, but this will now be in the form of a friendly, touch-free greeting, rather than a handshake.

From the 24th July, we will ask for all of our customers visiting us to wear facemasks. Our staff members have been wearing facemasks ever since we reopened our dealerships. This is for your safety as well as ours.

Please find below a link to our Managing Director statement:

what we're doing to keep everyone safe

To ensure everyone stays as safe as possible and to help protect against the spread of COVID-19, we've made some changes to our usual processes. Watch our short videos to find out more details.

From 24th Sept, in line with new Government Legislation you will find NHS Test & Trace QR Codes located at our dealership entrances.

As a responsible business we have a duty of care to protect our valued customers and would request that you scan this code when visiting our sites.

We do completely understand that this is a voluntary action. If you opt not to scan the QR code, we will request that your details are taken in a manual format in order to make sure we are all doing our part & keeping everyone safe, this information will ONLY be used in the event it is requested by the NHS.

​Social Distancing 

We all understand how important social distancing is for our protection, and so you can be reassured that this will continue in our showroom and servicing facilities. The same rules apply: to keep a minimum of 2 metres apart. To achieve this you will notice we have moved some things around, and marked on the floor to indicate where people should walk, and stop, to ensure distancing rules are followed by all.

From the 24th July will we ask for all of our customers to wear facemarks

​Safety Screens Where Needed.

It's nothing personal, we simply need to protect some of our team who have close contact with customers where it may not be possible to fully maintain social distancing. Just like in the supermarket. Behind the screen is the same friendly team member ready to help you.

We have installed Perspex protection sneeze screens on all Sales, Parts and Service Advisor desks to ensure the maximum possible protection for you and ourselves. All our customer-facing colleagues will wear masks and we have processes in place to ensure regular and effective hand washing throughout the day for all colleagues. You will find hand sanitiser pump stations throughout the dealership for your use.

​Working in regularly sanitised offices, workshops and showrooms.

We believe in doing everything possible to protect our team members, which includes a new sanitising system in all areas of our facilities. So every tool in the workshops, every surface in the kitchens, every touch point in the rest rooms, and every corner of our showrooms and offices are subject to additional cleaning using dedicated staff working to set procedures. This is why our staff, and you, can be confident in safely working and visiting Winchester Motor Group facilities.

We have invested in sanitiser machines at all of dealerships to be able to clean inside and outside of the cars you have purchased from us before we delivered your car to your front door or before you arrive at our dealership to click & collect your new car and to our service customers.
