New head under the bonnets at Pebley Beach

There's a new head under the bonnets at Pebley Beach in Swindon - Tom Riggs has qualified as a Suzuki service technician following a recent passing out ceremony at the Gaydon Heritage Motor Centre in Warwickshire.

The former Malmesbury School pupil - who still lives in the town - served his three year apprenticeship at the firm's Cirencester branch, and attained classroom-based knowledge at the Suzuki Training Centre in Doncaster.

He has joined the eight strong team of technicians at Swindon to make way for a new apprentice at Cirencester.

But Tom (21) will not be waving goodbye to text books and examinations just yet - he is following a training path towards achieving the coveted Master technician status, and has already been accredited as a first level Suzuki technician.

Pebley's managing director, Dominic Threlfall, said: "Pebley Beach is committed to encouraging new talent through its apprenticeship programme, and Tom's success shows that good jobs await those young people who choose an apprenticeship as a route into work."

Financial Disclosure

Pebley Beach Limited is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd, who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Pebley Beach Limited to act as a credit broker, not as a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

We can introduce you to a selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. An introduction to a lender does not amount to independent financial advice and we act as their agent for this introduction. Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next best offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure the best deal you are eligible for from our panel of lenders. Lenders may pay a fixed commission to us for introducing you to them, calculated by reference to the vehicle model or amount you borrow. Different lenders may pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement, all of which are set by the lender concerned. If you ask us what the amount of commission is, we will tell you in good time before the Finance agreement is executed. All finance applications are subject to status, terms and conditions apply, UK residents only, 18’s or over. Guarantees may be required.
