The John Clark Group will be celebrating the opening its new £2.5 million Dundee Audi dealership with a four-day launch party.

The Kings Cross Road site will be displaying the R8 sports car and the new A5 coupé at the event which starts on July 13.

John Clark has increased investment in its Audi dealerships to £4 million over the last 12 months. Dundee Audi follows the opening of a £1.5 million redevelopment at Aberdeen Audi.

The new Dundee Audi dealership includes an eight-car showroom, workshop with ten vehicle bays, MoT testing facility and a 50-car used car display area.

John Clark, chairman and managing director of the John Clark Motor Group, said: “When we committed to building this new dealership, the Dundee team had just scooped the top Audi ACE customer service award in the UK, beating 123 other dealerships in the process.

“It is achievements like that which have encouraged us to invest £4 million in our Audi dealerships in Aberdeen and Dundee.”

The opening of the new Dundee Audi dealership has created 15 new jobs, with potential for more as the business expands.

The John Clark Motor Group, one of the top five motor dealership groups in Scotland, currently operates 12 dealerships with 16 franchises across the East of Scotland. These include Specialist Cars Audi in Aberdeen and Dundee Audi. The other group dealerships include Specialist Cars Volkswagen (Aberdeen and Kirkcaldy), John Clark BMW and MINI (Aberdeen and Dundee), Pentland Land Rover (Edinburgh), Specialist Cars Skoda and Specialist Cars Seat (Aberdeen) and Van Centre Edinburgh.
