Reflecting on the network’s excellence over the last 12 months, Patrick McGillycuddy, Managing Director, JLR UK, said:

“I’m inspired by the incredible partners we have in the UK network. The past year has brought challenges for our industry, from the impact of tariffs, and for JLR specifically due to the disruption caused by the cyber incident. Yet through it all, our retailer partners have continued to demonstrate exceptional resilience, class‑leading professionalism and unwavering dedication in support of Range Rover, Defender, Discovery and Jaguar. In the next year our brands will evolve significantly, and the strength and commitment of our partners has never been so vital. I want to thank every one of our partners and their teams for their passion and support during a demanding year, and take a moment to reflect on our combined achievements as we get ready for the next, exciting chapter together.”

Rob Lindsay,  JLR Franchise Director at Lloyd Motor Group, thrilled to be collecting the Partner of the Year award.
