The Hilton Group opens 75,000sq-ft, three-storey classic car dealership

The Hilton Group has officially opened its new 75,000 square foot classic car showroom, restoration and accident repair facility in Bishop’s Stortford.

The approved Audi, Bentley, Jaguar Land Rover, Mercedes-Benz, Seat, Tesla, Volkswagen and Volvo repairer has expanded with the creation of the purpose-built facility which covers three storeys and includes a vehicle turntable, roof terrace and a multi-storey workshop.

It also features a new Hilton Car Storage facility, offering concierge-style storage in a humidity and temperature-controlled environment

Hilton’s new building joins its existing properties off Raynham Road, Bishop’s Stortford, bringing the total amount of floor space operated by the business to over 100,000sq-ft.

Group founder, Peter Hilton, said: “This new facility is the future of our business, perfectly encapsulating everything we do here at the group.

“The new state-of-the-art showrooms are the ideal showcase for our perfect restoration work at Hilton & Moss – as well as TVR and Lotus models as part of Car Sales – our two-storey 30-bay workshop further extends our reputation as the largest manufacturer-approved repair facility in the UK, and Hilton Car Storage showcases our absolute passion and attention to detail.

“More than that, though, we wanted to create a real destination for car enthusiasts in the South East and beyond.”

A two-storey showroom sits at the front of the new facility, displaying models from the in-house classic car restoration and sales business, Hilton & Moss, as well as modern sports cars from Lotus and TVR.

Its workshops provide 30 bays across two floors, meanwhile.

The Hilton Group incorporates a number of businesses, including a body repair operation that it claims is “the largest manufacturer-approved repair facility in the UK”.

Hilton & Moss is a paintwork specialist and its restoration work has been displayed throughout the globe, including at blue chip collector car events like Salon Privé.

A Mercedes-Benz 190SL, restored by Hilton & Moss for model David Gandy, formed part of the line-up at a recent edition of the prestigious London Concours and placed 1st at warrant concours.
