Plans: Vertu Volkswagen Nottingham North

Vertu Volkswagen has begun a £1.4m redevelopment of its dealership in Daybrook, Nottingham.

Work has commenced on the construction of a brand new showroom, which will house 11 display vehicles as well as brand new offices to accommodate the growing team.

Mark Dale, general manager at Vertu Volkswagen Nottingham North, said: “The old dealership looked tired and the new site is going to look fantastic, the brand new showroom is particularly eye-catching and the new offices will offer a comfortable and confidential sales experience for customers.

“The investment allows Vertu Volkswagen to continue delivering excellent customer service to its loyal customer base in Nottingham, while offering a welcoming and friendly atmosphere for new customers.

The showroom, on Mansfield Road, which will be in line with Volkswagen’s latest franchise guidelines, is a welcoming and comfortable space for customers and an improved working environment for colleagues.

The existing showroom will be demolished upon the completion of the project, making way for more approved used vehicle space and an extended customer parking area.

A brand new car wash and valet area as well as refurbished sales and aftersales areas will also be part of the facility which aims to be a one-stop shop for customers.

Dale added: “Despite the major construction work, the Vertu Volkswagen team will still be on site to advise customers on the full range of Volkswagen models and Aftersales services. We can’t wait to welcome customers to the dealership when it opens later in the year.”
