Drive Motor Retail has officially unveiled its newly redeveloped Darlington dealership, following an investment of over £3m.
The redevelopment brings together seven vehicle brands under one roof, including Citroën, Peugeot, Fiat, Abarth, Vauxhall, Leapmotor and MG, alongside Fiat Professional aftersales services.
The modernised dealership now features five manufacturer showrooms, significantly expanded workshop facilities and space to display more than 130 used vehicles, allowing customers to compare a wide range of vehicles in a single visit.
Extensive changes have also been made, including relocating the MOT bay and installing additional ramps to expand workshop capacity.
Jeff Parkin, general manager at Drive Motor Retail Darlington, said: “This redevelopment marks an exciting new chapter for our Darlington dealership.
“After more than 20 years, the site has been completely transformed into a modern automotive centre that brings together an exceptional range of brands and services.
“By investing in the dealership, we’ve been able to create a much better experience for our customers, whether they’re visiting to explore new vehicles, browse our used car selection or have their car serviced.”
Drive Motor Retail is ranked 50 in the Motor Trader Top 200 Dealer Groups with over 800 employees working across 34 UK franchise dealerships.
