MAJOR car retailer Driver Motor Retail has opened a standalone MG dealership in Scarborough.

Previously, both MG and Hyundai brands shared a single space in the coastal town.

The newly opened MG dealership is located near Drive's existing Hyundai dealership on Seamer Road.

The site is the area's only franchised MG dealership, offering sales of both new and used cars, including franchised and non-franchised models.

As well as retail sales, a team of Motability specialists will be available, offering expert advice on the range of adaptable vehicles. Comprehensive servicing and repair facilities, managed by experienced technicians, will also be part of the site's offerings. This includes MOT testing and a wide range of MG parts and accessories, which will be located at Drive’s existing Hyundai dealership in Scarborough.

Drive MG Scarborough General Manager Carl Prescott said: “We are excited to announce the opening of our prestigious new MG dealership in Scarborough. This marks a significant milestone for Drive as we continue to expand our services across the UK.

“I’m thrilled to welcome my dedicated team, including our newly appointed showroom manager, Dave Clarkson, who brings a wealth of experience from renowned brands such as Land Rover and a large Vauxhall Franchise.”
