John Martin Group is doubling its representation of Chrysler in Scotland.

The group already has dealerships for the US brand at Glasgow and Stirling, under its Murray Motor Company brand.

It has now expanded with full dealerships at Edinburgh and Selkirk.

Gordon Mowatt, dealer principal at Murry Motor Company in Edinburgh and Selkirk said:”We are delighted to open two new Chrysler’s dealerships and see great potential for increasing the brand’s market share in this area."

Federico Goretti, managing director at Chrysler UK, said: “Following the recent news in the U.S, Chrysler will become even stronger and competitive in the UK, and the next generation of environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient vehicles will attract lots of new customers to the brand.

“With a richer product portfolio to come, it has never been a better time to get onboard with Chrysler, this is reflected in the number of new dealerships appointed.”
