Sytner Group has opened a new £3.25m Porsche dealerships – setting the template for the next breed of Porsche sites in its network.

The 1.5-acre site near Silverstone, Northamptonshire, has a 12-car showroom and a service department with glass screens designed to encourage drivers to view and discuss work carried out.

Noel Gaston, Porsche Silverstone managing director, says £8m pounds of new car orders were taken during the first three months of trading.
