Sister twins purchase two new Fabias

It’s not uncommon for Derek Slack Motors to sell more than one vehicle to a member of the same family, in fact, being the oldest SKODA dealer in the North East, we’re pretty much used to it! However, it’s not everyday you witness twins purchasing the same vehicle on the same day. Sisters, Ruth and Marie recently took delivery of two SKODA Fabias from our Middlesbrough dealership which they also christened Idris and Fido. (Their mum also drive an Octavia).

Sales Executive-Jed Thirkell, takes up the story. “There are many families who own two of the same vehicle. When you look at the wide range of SKODAs currently available, it’s not difficult to see why a new SKODA might appeal to more than just one family member. It just so happened in this case they were also twins.”

Jed finished by adding, “It was a real ray of sunshine on a very grey day. I wish them both many happy years motoring.

​​Those interested in purchasing the new third generation Fabia with its generous equipment levels, striking new look exterior and host of Simply Clever innovations, might also be interested in learning it’s now available with only £259 deposit, 6.9% APR representative as well as one year’s free insurance and 3 years free servicing with a Solutions Personal Contract Plan
