The business was established in the 2000s, purchasing a long-established local establishment within the first years of inception.

Based in the South East, the business operates across two sites and three profit centres: used car sales, accident repairs and mechanical repairs. They possess a fully equipped accident repair centre and effectively two mechanical repair workshops, which receive regular business from partnerships with insurance companies.

In addition to that, they have an established client base at regional level, with insurance company repairs factoring in 25% of the total turnover, and a large share of profits brought by loyal and frequent customers.

Their services are well known in the area, both for the fame as a local establishment that the company upholds, and for operating as an independent dealer with all the amenities and facilities of a modern main dealer.

At present, there are plenty of opportunities for the prospective purchaser to take on this establishment to achieve new goals, while capitalising on and furthering their existing legacy.
