FINDING the best deal for new motors, car repairs, or anything to do with your set of wheels could become a whole lot easier if the latest brain wave of young entrepreneur David Patrick takes the worldwide web by storm.
The 27-year-old, of Denison Road in Selby, is putting the final touches to his new motor trade comparison website www.comparethemotortrade.com and it is already creating a stir in the business world.
Yesterday he showcased his new business idea at Venture Fest at York Racecourse – an event highlighting all the latest innovations and designs in the world of technology – after impressing organisers (Innovation and Design) and winning the chance to display on a trade stand.
He is currently working as a mobile technician for Mercedes-Benz but said he hoped to concentrate full time on his new idea if it took off and added: “I was surprised but really pleased to be invited to take part in Venture Fest.
“It seems organisers recognised how unique my site is.
“Many comparison sites only have limited information but mine has comparisons for vehicle servicing, repair, sales, bodywork, and much more and it is constantly evolving.
“It also invites customer reviews and ratings, so people can compare and contrast their experiences of a service with others, to help them choose what’s best for them in terms of quality and price. “
If a garage has a good rating David said those using his site could get money off vouchers for that garage the next time they visit it.
He added: “This site has been three years in the planning and I have absolute faith it will be a success.”
