Hyundai Appoints New Dealer In Nottingham

NOTTINGHAM, UNITED KINGDOM – March 1, 2011: Situated in a superb location on Nuthall Road, this latest addition to Hyundai‘s nationwide dealer network will serve the Nottingham area and will be the largest solus Hyundai showroom in the UK. The showroom is 440 square metres, accommodating approximately 12 vehicles.

Bristol Street Motors is part of Vertu Motors plc and has been associated with the Hyundai brand for many years in other parts of the UK. The company operates 76 outlets throughout the country and has a long history with the Citroën brand in Nottingham and the East Midlands. This dealership is the third Hyundai site that the group has opened after the recent appointment at Exeter.

During March, as part of its new opening offers, Bristol Street Motors is offering half price servicing for all Hyundai owners in Nottingham. The dealership will have other fantastic offers available including great finance packages and the ‘Trade and Upgrade’ scheme, which similar to the Government Scrappage Scheme, allows owners of seven to 10 year old cars in Britain to get an allowance of between £1,500 - £3,000 for a brand new Hyundai car.*

The opening comes at a time when Hyundai also has fantastic offers on the Motability scheme, including NIL advance rental payments. With access to over 3,000 used cars within Bristol Street Motor’s group stock, the dealership will be able to find the right car to suit a wide range of customers and there’ll be over 100 used cars always available on-site.

Russell Blakey, General Manager, Bristol Street Motors said: “We are thrilled that very shortly we’ll be representing Hyundai in Nottingham. The whole team is extremely excited about our new dealership and we are looking forward to welcoming all of our customers and finding the right car for them.”

Robert Forrester, Chief Executive, Vertu Motors plc added: “Hyundai is a brand that is increasing its market share in the UK and continually developing exciting new cars. Bristol Street Motors is a strong brand in the East Midlands and has been a retailer in Nottingham for many years. We felt that the time was right to open a second dealership in the city. The opportunity to open the largest Hyundai showroom in the UK and represent such a rapidly evolving brand was one that we couldn’t resist.”
