A HUDDERSFIELD car dealer has been named the best in the UK.

Hannah Clarkson won the top award and £1000 after winning at the Oscars of the motoring world.

She was named dealer support of the year at the Go! People awards, which recognise the work of car dealers throughout the country.

Mrs Clarkson works at the Richard Alexander Seat showroom on Bradford Road.

Her boss, James Warne, nominated her for the title and said he was thrilled with her performance in the competition.

He added: “It’s notoriously difficult to reach the final of the Go! People awards, so she has done brilliantly and we are all really proud of her.

“Hannah’s success just goes to underline our philosophy that a great dealership is based on great people.

“Now we know we have one of the best people around.”
