Over £6000 raised for local charities with Santa float
Last night we attended the Rotary Club of Aylesbury Hundreds presentation evening, where they distributed the money raised from their Santa float evenings. It was lovely to see how many charities have benefited, and the difference it will make to them. We are so pleased we were able to help with the loan of our C5 Aircross to pull Santa's float throughout December inAylesbury.
A total of £3,950 was presented last night, with just over £6,000 raised by the Rotary Club in December.

Santa is loving his new C5 Aircross
Sportif Citroen are extremely proud to be able to help Santa and the Rotary Club of Aylesbury Hundreds this December by supplying a vehicle to tow Santa’s float through Aylesbury. He has been touring each night, waving to all the children and collecting for charity. It is great to see our car being used to bring Christmas joy to the local area.
Used Car Awards Success
Wow what a night at the Car Dealer Used Car Awards last night... as well as winning 'Used Car Sales Team of the Year', we were also highly commended in the following categories; 'Used Car Dealership of the Year 51-100 Cars' and 'Used Car Dealer Principal of the Year'. Well done to all the team for making the business such a success, and also to our loyal customers for their continued support.
1st Electric Berlingo
Lucy Leasing's first electric vehicle sale to the lovely Tanner, who is now the proud new owner of a fully electric CitroenBerlingo.
Since our recent refurbishment and installation of electric charging points, we have gained status as an Electric Vehicle dealer, and this is our first electric vehicle sale as a dealership. Exciting times ahead.
Santa's Got a New Ride
Sportif Citroen are extremely proud to be able to help Santa and the Rotary Club of Aylesbury Hundreds this December by supplying a vehicle to tow Santa’s float through Aylesbury. After hearing of the club's plight, that their tow vehicle was out of action, we were more than happy to help.
Personally, watching the float each year and standing out to wave to Santa in the cold, has been a family tradition for many years, so being able to help keep this going and be a part of the magic is amazing. This is so exciting!!

We are extremely excited to have just received the 'Golden Chevron' award from Eurig Druce, Sales Director for Citroen UK for being recognised as the top performing Citroen dealer for August. Well done to all the team!!! Amazing result!

A Big Thank You To All The Team
"With a week to go until the MotorTrader Industry Awards, I am very excited to be a finalist for Dealer Principal of the Year. I would just like to say a massive thank you to all my staff, as they are who make the business a success and I certainly wouldn’t be where I am today without my dedicated team by my side.
The dealership has undergone a massive transformation this year, with a £250,000 investment into the new Citroen corporate identity, a complete renovation of the showroom and service area, updates to the workshop and electric car charging introduced throughout the site.
Ranked amongst the top 3 Citroen dealers in the country, I can not express in words how grateful I am to my team and our loyal customers for all their support. Whatever the result next Wednesday night, I already feel like we are all winners.

Simon Miskin, who has been successfully running Sportif Citroën as Dealer Principal for the last 7 years, has just completed his life-long ambition by becoming Managing Director of the business. Along with his close friend James Wilmoth, they have acquired the business from John Miskin and John Boardman, who have retired after 19 years.
Simon, speaking about his new acquisition, said: “My business ethos both in the past and going forward, has always been to surround myself with generally like-minded, experienced people. It has additionally always been vital to empower them to make their own decisions, even if sometimes that means them learning from the occasional mistake along the way.
I am confident in the team I have around me in both Sales and After-Sales, and will not be making any changes to the dynamics. Thankful for such wonderful managers and staff, I know Sportif will continue to grow and excel in providing outstanding customer service, and with the exciting new range of Citroen products available, and those soon due for release, the dealership is sure to continue its year on year success.”

Sportif Citroën have been recognised by Citroën UK for passing the Foundation Phase of ‘ACE Accreditation’, as part of an international programme from the PSA Group.
Citroën UK recognised Sportif Citroën, based in Aylesbury, as passing the ‘ACE Accreditation’ Foundation Phase in light of improvements made to their Aftersales division.
To achieve the accreditation, the Sportif Citroën management team worked alongside Aftersales experts from Citroën UK. This was on a nine-month consultancy, coaching and training programme, to maximise key opportunities within their service department based on Park Street.
The programme covered everything from customer parking and onsite facilities, such as Wi-Fi availability and refreshments, as well as working in detail with the service team to optimise the standard of their reception and workshop processes. The aim being to ensure customers receive the best possible experience and value for money when visiting the Citroën dealership.
ACE Accreditation is a UK initiative that Citroën UK started in 2015. Driven by an international programme from the PSA Group, this initiative from Citroën UK ensures a high standard of Aftersales services are delivered to customers via their entire network of dealers.
Our second year of supporting Live In The Park, an amazing community event full of family fun, music and food. and completely free to the general public. We had our C4 Cactus on display and had fun meeting the public, as well as getting to enjoy the live music.
Another year supporting this amazing literacy event, with guests including Dame Darcey Bussell, Dame Jessica Enis-Hill and Tony Hadley, as well as an array of local authors. The annual parade from local schools and groups was also a real festival feast, another successful event we were proud to be a part of.
Saturday was a scorcher in Thame, but a great time was had by all at the Barley Hill School Fete. With plenty of activities and fun for all the family we were proud to help support the PTFA with their event. One lucky lady also guessed the number of balloons correctly to win herself a £40 bottle of wine, kindly donated by the Black Horse.
Another crown for the Citroën C3. Citroen C3 Wins Driving Instructor Car of the Year at FirstCar Awards 2018 David Motton, FirstCar’s Editor, said; "The C3 is a car that instructors will enjoy driving and their pupils will be excited to learn in. Not only is it a characterful and stylish car, it has a long list of safety equipment as standard. Useful innovations like the built-in personal safety camera help the C3 stand out in a competitive field." Are you a driving instructor? Want to know more?

On Friday 5th August we held our VIP night for the limited edition Givenchy Le MakeUp edition of the DS3. With makeup artists, bubbly and canapes it was a night of luxury for our customers.

It may have been an overcast day in May, but we were out supporting Bierton Village School fete with 'Guess how many balloons in the DS3'. The day was a great success, with all the children, parents and local villagers taking part... thanks again to Bierton School for having us there. Unfortunatley Becci didn't get chance for a donkey ride or a go on the inflatable slide - next time maybe :)
