Swansway Group has taken on the luxury Italian franchise Abarth.

The brand will sit alongside Fiat and Citroën at Swansway Chester.

Andrew Wakelin operations director for Swansway Chester sites commented; “I’m something of a motor racing buff, so to have Abarth as a brand is something rather special for me.

“The cars they produce are out of the ordinary and certainly have that little Italian something extra.”

Swansway has been winner of the AM Best Retail Dealer Group of The Year for the last two years; is at 13th in the Great Places to Work survey and 32nd in the Sunday Times Best Companies to Work for List.
