Welcome Kevin!

Kevin Le Vallee is the man of the moment! He’s the new sales executive at Jacksons and Motor Mall on Guernsey, the largest 
multi-franchise motor dealership in the Channel Islands. Young Kevin was born on Guernsey, to local parents, and is currently in the process of renovating his home near the beach, where he enjoys evening walks with his wife. Since beginning his consistently successful career in auto sales, he reckons he’s sold more than 1,000 cars.
He started out 
working for Volvo, followed by Volkswagen, Audi and Porsche, and for the past two years he’s been selling Honda. Of his new position, he says, "I’m delighted to be joining an established company with a pro-active approach to improving customer care and service. Now, with an amazing sixteen brands on-site, I have the perfect opportunity to offer both new customers and my existing clients an extremely impressive range of superb cars."
Kevin leads a busy life, but still finds time to enjoy his numerous hobbies, which include surfing, snowboarding, photography, travel, reading, cars (of course!) and movies.
He and his wife have just returned from what he describes as a fantastic holiday to celebrate their first wedding anniversary. “We visited Venice, Rome and Paris,” he says, "and really enjoyed the sense of history in seeing ancient buildings and wonderful architecture." Now he’s back on Guernsey, refreshed, bright-eyed and bushy tailed - and ready to make his name at Jacksons and Motor Mall!

Mercedes-Benz SL Launch


More than 50 years ago saw the birth of a car that was to be crowned ‘sports car of the century’. It was of course the legendary 300 SL, pioneering a great sports car tradition. Now, a new era has begun:  striking a dazzling pose, the legend continues.
To celebrate the latest incarnation of the SL Jacksons hosted the Channel Island launch last Thursday.
Hosted by Jacksons General Manager, Charles Tennant, the evening introduced invited guests to the new SL, which was very well received.
Apart from the sumptuous new SL and the fabulous Mercedes Heritage display of classic SL models, those attending enjoyed a delicious mix of canapés, freshly prepared by Jersey's Michelin chef, Shaun Rankin, to accompany complimentary drinks. There was also a prize draw, with the lucky winners bagging a range of goodies from the superb Mercedes-Benz Collection 2012. All-in-all, an excellent evening.
Here's the official launch promo from Mercedes-Benz...
