Nidd Vale Motors is planning to relocate its multi-franchise site and headquarters in Harrogate to a new purpose-built 20,000 sq ft car showroom next to St James’s Business Park in Knaresborough.
Its current site on Leeds Road would make way for a new Marks & Spencer Simply Food shop.
The dealer group is holding public consultation at Leeds Road giving details of the planning application which will be presented to Harrogate Borough Council later this year.
The Leeds Road site currently holds Vauxhall, Saab, Mazda, Seat and its aftersales business.

So much investment for so little return. The days of prospects visiting car delaerships in volume has finished.

There has to be a different ''Dealer Model'' which excludes the high overheads and reprehensible standards imposed on franchised dealers by the importers and manufacturers.
