David Spear Commercial Vehicles has once again been recognised for delivering outstanding customer service after retaining the prestigious Auto Trader Highly Rated Award for 2026.
The achievement marks the second consecutive year the business has received the award, following its exceptional success in 2025 when it was also crowned Auto Trader Van Retailer of the Year.
The Auto Trader Highly Rated Award is based entirely on verified customer reviews received throughout the year, recognising retailers that consistently deliver exceptional customer experiences. Rather than judging a single moment in time, the award reflects a sustained commitment to customer satisfaction across every part of the business.
Retaining the award demonstrates the consistency, professionalism and dedication shown by the entire David Spear Commercial Vehicles team, from vehicle preparation and workshops through to sales, administration and aftersales support.
Founder David Spear said:
“Retaining the Auto Trader Highly Rated Award is another significant achievement for the business and one that everyone should be incredibly proud of. To receive this recognition for a second consecutive year demonstrates the consistency of our team and their commitment to going above and beyond for every customer. It reflects the values that have been at the heart of the business for more than 40 years, and I would like to thank every member of the team for the part they have played in achieving this fantastic recognition.”
The award reinforces David Spear Commercial Vehicles’ reputation as one of the UK’s leading independent commercial vehicle retailers, with customer feedback continuing to highlight the team’s professionalism, product knowledge and commitment to delivering an exceptional buying experience.
Receiving industry recognition for a second successive year is a testament to the culture that exists throughout the business, where putting customers first remains the priority every single day.
Congratulations to everyone involved in achieving another outstanding milestone.
