Empowering Customers To Reduce Carbon Emissions

Environmental Products We Supply at Sturgess

Being a motor retailer, we naturally realise that our business activities increase Carbon Dioxide levels in the atmosphere and therefore we actively strive to educate our customers to reduce their footprint on the environment. The franchise partners we work with also all recognise the importance of the impact they have on the environment and are constantly reviewing their product ranges to reduce the impact of Co2 emissions with updated model and engine choices.
• Each new car displayed in our showrooms has a colour coded fuel efficiency rating shown alongside. The rating, which goes from A to G demonstrates to the customer that the lower the rating, the lower the Co2 emission, and therefore the lower the associated road tax on the vehicle.
• A similar scheme is also offered on our Used Car Selection with our point of sale displays clearly showing Co2 emissions, miles per gallon and associated road tax band.
• We actively assist business customers in demonstrating the potential emissions and running costs associated with their company car choice.
• We also offer to customers the option to offset their Co2 emissions to help balance the emissions created by driving through Co2 offset programmes available. As standard products have a Co2 offset programme in place which offsets the emissions created for 3 years from date of registration. Other customers are encouraged to visit the ClimateCare website where an online calculator will help them calculate their burden on the environment, giving them the option to make themselves carbon zero should they wish.
• We publicise both electronically and online a series of driving tips to help customers drive in a more careful and responsible way. It is important that our customers recognise that they can also be a safer driver and at the same time cut exhaust emissions, save fuel, and at the same time save money at the fuel pump.

Walter E. Sturgess & Sons Ltd 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 Walter E. Sturgess & Sons Ltd 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.
