MIDLANDS-based dealership group Arbury has officially opened a state-of-the-art Seat showroom in Solihull.
Seat becomes the latest in a long line of well-known automotive manufacturers that Arbury already represents across the region – and last night there was a successful launch event at the showroom.
The new outlet will serve the Spanish marque’s customers in and around Solihull, offering a wide range of new and used Seat cars, including the award-winning Leon, the iconic Ibiza and the eagerly-anticipated all-new Ateca SUV.
The new dealership also offers a aftersales services with servicing, MOT testing, plus parts and accessories all under one roof. The dealer principal is Phil Yarnold.
This morning, Yarnold told us: ‘We had a great launch evening last night. Richard Harrison, the head of Seat UK, came down and it was a wonderful evening. Seat has really welcomed us into the brand.
‘It’s going really well at the minute. We’ve had quite a lot of footfall and we’ve already sold 10 new cars for September, so a car a day!
‘The brand is growing with the products that Seat has got coming out. Next year, we expect to be doing double or triple the sales, with a new facelifted Leon, a brand new Ibiza, a new crossover towards the end of next year and this weekend is the launch of the new Ateca.
‘Seat has opened another 25 per cent of the market with the Ateca. I can only see the product and the brand getting better.’
