Chief executive of Lookers Andy Bruce said: “We’re delighted that so many of our employees are sharing in our success. We’ve consistently delivered a strong trading performance which is a result of the hard work that goes into looking after our customers’ day in, day out.

“The success of our Company is the result of the contribution of all of our team and I’d like to thank them for their efforts and their loyalty to Lookers.”
