If you’re struggling to keep up with the motor trade news, Car Dealer editor in chief James Baggott’s weekly briefing for time poor motor trade bosses is perfect.
His Car Dealer Weekly Briefing summarises this week’s major news on Subtack – but you need to be a subscriber to read it.
In his newsletter this week, he looks at Marshall Motor Group CEO Martin Casha’s exit from the dealer group and the changes that have unfolded since. What’s next for the Constellation-backed business?
There’s also news from north of the border where Arnold Clark has been busy doing deals and launching a new luxury used car arm. It’s a change in step for the leader of our Car Dealer Top 100 most profitable dealer list – and the firm rarely gets things wrong.
Elsewhere he looks at Hedin’s losses – blamed, in part, on agency sales – as well as the new cars that lost the most money last year. Can you guess what type of vehicles they were?
Also featured in this week’s briefing:
- Motors’ new inspection offer
- Evans Halshaw
- Ohme’s ‘old school’ charger
- A day at the auctions
- Automotive 30% Club awards
- Car Dealer Live line-up
