A car retailer is celebrating after one of its models scooped two awards.

Rybrook Bolton has announced that the Volvo XC40 was named Used Car of the Year and Used SUV of the Year in the What Car? Used Car of the Year Awards.

The model was commended for its 'compelling qualities in the pre-owned market.'

Judges praised the XC40 for its choice of 'powertrains, interior quality, refinement, and family-friendly practicality', all delivered with 'great value for money for used car buyers.'

Mark Pearson, What Car? Used Cars editor, said: "For us, the XC40 is the supreme all-rounder – a reliable and desirable car that does so many things exceptionally well.

"You can have it as a petrol, diesel, hybrid or fully electric car, too, giving the used car buyer a variety of options.

"The fact that this immensely appealing family SUV should also be such great value when bought used just seals the deal for us."

The retailer is also celebrating success for the XC90 T8 large SUV, which was commended in the Used Hybrid category.

A spokesperson for Rybrook Bolton said: "It’s amazing to see the Volvo XC40 receive such praise at this year’s What Car? Used Car of the Year Awards.

"The qualities that have made this car such a great success for us in the new car market are proving equally appealing to customers looking for a used car – an area where value for money and peace of mind are also crucial considerations.

"We encourage Bolton drivers to visit Rybrook Bolton to learn more about the Volvo XC40, whether considering a new or used model, and see the car’s qualities first-hand while speaking to our friendly team of experts."
