Grand Toyota Clarkson in Western Australia has awarded customer Rachel Lawless a surprise with her latest service.
Last week’s scheduled service on her Toyota C-HR at the Burns Beach dealership earned Lawless a $10,000 prize in Automotive Holdings Group’s Epic Car Sale competition which received over 500 entries.
“I’m in total shock and I’m literally shaking,” Lawless told the North Coast Times.
General manager Colm Hannigan handed Lawless the giant cheque and a bottle of bubbly.
Meanwhile, 15 minutes south at Wangara Kia and Suzuki, women will this week be the highlight of a workshop learning session.
Women On Wheels will be held on Wednesday night at the Prindiville Drive dealership, aiming to educate women about vehicle maintenance.
Attendees will be split into five small groups to learn about changing tyres, examine a vehicle from front to back under a hoist, and get a brief on cooling systems, fuel and lubrication.
Automotive electrical and air conditioning will also be covered, as well has handling emergency situations.
Women On Wheels is a nationally run organisation and will hold additional workshops at John McGrath Kia (Phillip, ACT) on October 25, and Gateway Kia in Fairy Meadow (near Woollongong, NSW) on November 14.
Ferntree Gully Holden dealer principal Brett Field, whose large Victorian dealership in Melbourne’s east, says Women On Wheels is beneficial for customers and families of the business alike.
“This is a community-based service designed to offer women a better knowledge and understanding of their vehicle in a positive environment,” he says.
