60 Registration Middlesbrough




The new 60 registration plate, proved to be one of the most popular changes in years, with the help of many exciting new Skoda, Subaru and Isuzu models launched in 2010.


Skoda in particular introduced the breathtaking new Fabia vRS 1.4 TSi Turbo 178bhp DSG, a vehicle that’s already taken over the mantle as the ‘hot-hatch’. Plus, Skoda’s super efficient Fabia Greenline II, was launched as one of the most environmentally friendly vehicles ever produced. The VAT free offer on Skoda Octavia, Roomster and Fabia, coupled with 0% finance, also proved popular with Teesside’s discerning motoring public.


Skoda customers arrived from Darlington, North Yorkshire and County Durham in search of the Yeti. The Skoda Yeti is a huge success story, combining all the rugged strengths of a traditional 4x4 with the practicality and running costs of a hatchback, the £179 per month price tag made the Yeti and extremely attractive option.


Skoda’s Superb Estate (Top Gear’s ‘Luxury car of the Year’ - 2009) is still proving a winner amongst Middlesbrough and Stockton on Tees drivers looking for extra space without compromising luxury. With a class leading 1,865 litres of boot space, colour touch screen satellite navigation, bluetooth, and full leather upholstery as standard, the Skoda Superb Estate also comes with an attractive low interest rate and just 7.9% typical APR.


As main dealers for Skoda on Teesside, our competitive 60 registration, part exchanges prices haven’t gone unnoticed by other regional Skoda dealers. We’ve seen many new customers enjoy a far better trade in price for their old Skoda at Derek Slack Motors. We make no apologies, our aim has always been to help put North East Skoda drivers into a vehicle they can afford, by giving you the best possible part exchange price for your old Skoda.


That’s only part of the story. Subaru also enjoyed very good sales, with Subaru’s, Boxer Diesel engines playing their part in the shape of the, Impreza, Legacy, Forester and Outback range, all of which offered outstanding choice for the new 60 registration. As main dealers for Subaru in Teesside, Derek Slack Motors have also seen many 60 registration Subaru customers traveling from North Yorkshire and County Durham, attracted by our competitive part exchange prices and extremely well documented customer care and aftersales service.


Finally Isuzu’s Rodeo range with prices starting from as little as £12,149 offer lower running costs than most 4x4’s along with class leading fuel economy and emmissions. The new grille gives the Rodeo an even meaner edge. Many commercial users took advantage of the £299 per month offer (plus VAT which is reclaimable). We’re building a growing reputation as Middlesbrough’s leading commercial centre.


Thanks again for reading, and to everyone who choose Derek Slack Motors on Teesside as their choice for an 60 registration, Skoda, Subaru and Isuzu.

Best towing vehicle for caravans











With caravan holiday bookings up by 40 per cent in 2009, according to the Caravan Club, 2010 looks set to be another busy year for Isuzu’s load-lugging pick-up, the bionic Rodeo – a task the tough, reliable Rodeo relishes.

The highly successful 4x4 Rodeo already has a series of towing accolades to its credit, including being voted ‘Towcar Of The Year – Utility Class’ by the Caravan Club itself, ‘Working Winner’ in the annual ‘Pick-up Of The Year Awards’ run by specialist ‘4x4 Magazine,’ and ‘Best In Class’ by ‘What Van’ magazine.

The combination of performance and frugality, makes the 4x4 Rodeo a real winner, even more so with caravan owners looking to escape for the summer. I’m sure many of the Rodeos we’ve sold will be heading over to the North Yorkshire Coast.”

With service intervals a lengthy 12,000 miles including oil change and the warranty is a ‘bumper-to-bumper’ three year/60,00 miles plus six years’ anti-perforation cover, making it the perfect, practical, reliable vehicle for the family caravan holiday. Rodeo owners also benefit from full membership of Isuzu Assistance which provides three years’ cover comprising ‘at home’, roadside and European repair or recovery, providing piece of mind on those all-important family holidays.
