Steve Plunkett, Volvo body and paint development manager, commented: “Competition was fierce throughout the year with Volvo Cars Poole & Poole Accident Repair battling it out with other top contenders before they finished top and we were delighted to present them with the regional award for the second year running.

It is vitally important that we recognise the valuable work being carried out by our network’s bodyshop partners all of which are an extremely valuable asset to our brand. Their hard work and dedication ensures a Volvo vehicle undergoing repairs meets our exacting standards and they are crucial in helping us maintain the brand’s reputation for safety and service.”
