UCA 2022 nominations
The firms that have made the Nominations List for the Used Car Awards 2022, sponsored by Black Horse, have been revealed.
They are the ones that will go through to the tough mystery shopping phase, with the winners announced at the glittering awards ceremony at The Brewery in London on Monday, November 28.
Our judging panel – which includes event host Wheeler Dealer star Mike Brewer – whittled down the thousands of nominations received using a combination of citations and online reviews across a variety of platforms.
These businesses will now be mystery-shopped by our panel before our judges draw up the awards Shortlist, which will be revealed on Monday, October 24.
Brewer said: ‘The entries this year have been outstanding and it’s been tough enough whittling them down to this longer Nominations List cut.
‘The mystery shopping phase always sorts the wheat from the chaff, though.
‘The team, including myself, work incredibly hard on mystery-shopping the car dealers named here and fill out a scary-looking spreadsheet to help us decide the winner.
‘I can’t wait to be celebrating with the winners at the awards on November 28 – it’ll be worth all the hard work!’
Mystery shopping can happen remotely, on the phone, on a nominated firm’s website, or in person.
Brewer added: ‘Make sure you and your teams are on top of your game because you never know when our mystery shoppers may be inquiring.’
The Used Car Awards, sponsored by Black Horse, will be held on November 28 at The Brewery in London.
It's highly advisable to book your place now as spaces are running out fast. Last year, the ever-popular event sold out two weeks before it was held.
The event is black-tie and includes a three-course dinner as well as unlimited beer and wine. eBay Motors Group will be sponsoring the pre-dinner drinks and providing an after-dinner fun casino, while GardX is hosting the official afterparty, which is by invitation only.
