Cheshire-based Blue Bell group has opened a state-of-the-art BMW approved bodyshop at Brooke Park, Handforth Dean. The new site can handle up to 100 cars a week, more than tripling the capacity when the facility was based at the group's nearby Wilmslow dealership.

The company has also bought a former Lookers outlet in Dean Row Road, Wilmslow to house BMW approved used cars and Mini sales operations.
