About this company
Our story began in December 1996, when our Chairman and business partners purchased Leamington Mazda from Mazda UK – bringing it into private ownership. The new management team were dedicated to providing exceptional customer service, building a reputation for excellence in the local area. 25 years later, with the opening of Coventry and Stourbridge Mazda, the business has grown but the values and ethos remain the same. Green 4 Motor Company is an official representative of the Mazda brand, as well as selling a broad stock of Approved Used vehicles. Operating from 3 sites across the Midlands, our Coventry, Leamington and Stourbridge dealerships each have a passionate and knowledgeable team who are dedicated to providing our customers with friendly and professional service. At our dealerships, you have access to the latest models from the brand, as well as a broad selection of Approved Used vehicles. Each car has been fully prepared by our technicians so whether it’s a new or used car you will have warranty coverage. Alongside automotive retail, we offer a range of aftersales services designed to keep your vehicle in the best condition. Whether you are looking for a service or MOT, we have an aftersales team with specialised knowledge to ensure your car is receiving the best. Our service advisors will keep you informed every step of the way so that you are reassured that your car is in good hands. We also provide genuine parts and accessories that are specifically designed for each model in the Mazda family.
