Bristol Street Motors prepares to open new £400k home for Darlington SEAT dealership
Auto dealer Bristol Street Motors is preparing to launch its larger SEAT showroom in Darlington.
The company has invested more than £400k in the new site, which will have capacity for 100 vehicles – double that of its previous premises on Haughton Road.
Bristol Street Motors SEAT will be located on McMullen Road, where the firm already operates a Skoda dealership.
Two additional jobs have been created through the move. Further employment opportunities are expected once the team has settled in.
Neil Bianchi, general manager of the SEAT branch, said: “The team and I are thrilled by the result of the new dealership.
“Our customer offering has been taken to the next level, as we are able to hold a much larger amount of vehicles, and the after-sales facilities are fantastic.”
He continued: “This has been a huge investment for Bristol Street Motors and it displays the amount of confidence that the company has in the Darlington area.
“I am confident that we will be able to attract some local talent in the coming months, and look forward to welcoming our customers, who can now conveniently access the two fantastic brands in a new and improved location.”
