Autobedrijf Norbert Driessen B.V.

What Autobedrijf Norbert Driessen B.V. does

Autobedrijf Norbert Driessen B.V. is a privately held Dutch automotive dealership and service center operating from a single location at Ampèreweg 2, 3442 AB Woerden, Netherlands. Founded in 1989 and employing 8 people, the business functions as both a used-car showroom (operating under the sub-brand ND Premium Cars) and a BOVAG-certified, Bosch Car Service-affiliated workshop. Its core activities span the sale of young used vehicles (primarily with Mitsubishi and Nissan heritage but now all brands), full-service maintenance and repair, APK inspections, and specialized service for campers and commercial vehicles up to 8 meters in length. The company also acts as an intermediary for vehicle insurance (own product underwritten at Carmeleon plus multi-provider options) and financing/private lease products through third-party partners.

The underlying technology stack is conventional automotive workshop equipment accessed via the Bosch Car Service affiliation, supplemented by a corporate website providing online trade-in appraisal and workshop appointment scheduling. No proprietary software platforms, AI capabilities, or digital products are referenced. The business model combines transactional revenue streams — one-time used vehicle sales (lower-margin, high-ticket) and maintenance/repair work (higher-margin, recurring) — with commission-based revenue from insurance and financing product intermediation. Trade-in appraisal is offered free of charge as a lead-generation mechanism to feed the vehicle sales pipeline.

The go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via a physical showroom (Mon-Fri 08:00-17:00, Saturday 09:00-17:00) and the on-site workshop, with primary customers being individual car buyers and vehicle owners in the Woerden and surrounding Utrecht region. The company differentiates on personal service, craftsmanship, and convenience amenities (free pickup/delivery, loaner vehicles from bicycles to cars, transparent upfront pricing), and explicitly welcomes lease vehicles for service. The catchment is described as 'dichtbij' (close by), with no evidence of national or international expansion intent.

• Marktplaats: Marktplaats is the leading Dutch C2C classifieds platform with a strong automotive vertical for used vehicles and parts. It is a competing acquisition channel for local used-car buyers who might otherwise visit Norbert Driessen's showroom.
• AutoScout24: AutoScout24 is the dominant online used-vehicle marketplace in the Netherlands and adjacent EU markets. It competes for the same used-car buyer as Norbert Driessen but as a digital listing platform rather than a physical dealer.
