10:00 am, October 10, 2017

MOTORDEPOT has opened a new branch in the north-east of England – Motordepot Newcastle.

The development, which is alongside the A19 in North Shields, just to the north of the Tyne Tunnel, sees it become the largest car retailer on the Vroom car retail park.

The sales centre can display approximately 150 cars and has a service centre. Work is also under way on developing a new, purpose-built, 10,000 square foot service and car preparation centre, which will open alongside extra retail space to enable it to display more than 400 cars by the end of the year.

Motordepot Newcastle is the seventh branch in the business’s growing portfolio and consolidates and strengthens its position as one of the fastest-growing independent car supermarkets in the UK.

Managing director Stephen Butterley said: ‘In our first few days of operations it is clear that prospective customers are really at ease with the relaxed atmosphere in our showroom.

‘The team on site have undergone extensive training and have fully bought in to the Motordepot ethos of treating customers fairly. The feedback so far confirms to us we’re on the right track and we’re confident we’ll build a successful operation in the north-east.’
