MITCHELL in Wirral is celebrating the Mitsubishi Motor Dealer of the Year runner-up award. This go-ahead dealership is now in its third year, has 65 staff and a turnover of around £12m.

The Mitchell Mitsubishi certainly has a lot to smile about lately, winning many more customers with a 13 car range to include the all new Mitsubishi Colt Spacestar, Challenger and Spacewagons. Mitchell likes putting things back into the community, besides providing customer care and more jobs through expansion. MD Mark Mitchell is pictured handing over a Carisma car to be used by Claire House children's hospice based at Clatterbridge.

Fund raising is essential to keep the newly opened hospice running, so the Carisma will be put to good use.

Claire House appeal office number 343-0883. It is organising a charity ball at Moat House, Liverpool, on Friday, September 24, which promises to be a good night out.
