One very lucky lady from Barnstaple got much more than chocolates and flowers for her birthday last week after her husband decided a new car would be a better fit for the occasion. Following a visit to Devonshire Motors in Barnstaple, Mr Goodman (accompanied by the couple’s twin daughters who were in on the surprise) selected a spicy red Mitsubishi Colt for his wife's birthday...
The car was lovingly decorated with ribbons and bows for the grand reveal and accompanied by a matching bouquet courtesy of Devonshire Motors. Mark Hopkins- one of the senior sales executives at the showroom, responsible for the sale of the Colt (and partially responsible for the decoration!) said:

“At one point it looked as if the surprise was going to be found out before the big day. Mrs Goodman drove past the showroom as her husband was finalising the paperwork and paying the deposit. The family’s other vehicle was swiftly manoeuvred from its position at the front of the showroom on Pottington Industrial Estate and was, miraculously, not spotted in the process."
The family visited the showroom on the day of collection with Mrs Goodman still none the wiser, under the impression they were coming to look at one of the used cars at Devonshire Motors. She was, understandably, more than a little surprised when it was announced that the very shiny, brand new car with the bow on top was for her and was presented with the keys.
Devonshire Motors Dealer Principal, Nathan Tomlinson added
“The Goodman family were an absolute pleasure to deal with and we were really happy to be able to help make the day special for them. We’d like to take the opportunity to say thank you to them for choosing Devonshire Motors and to wish them many years of happy motoring in their new Mitsubishi”
For husbands (or wives) wishing to purchase as popular a gift as Mr Goodman selected- Devonshire Motors can, happily, gift wrap any of the vehicles on their forecourt!
