Wirral car salesman gears up with new Bromborough dealership
A car salesman on the Wirral has decided to go it alone and open his own dealership.
John Parks launched Parks Motor Company on Old Hall Industrial Estate in Bromborough after agreeing a five-year lease with commercial property investment firm LCP, the estate’s owner and manager.
The business is now operating from a 4,800 sq ft unit on Wrynose Road.
John has worked in the trade for 17 years, during which time he was a partner at Wirral-based BVH Car Sales.
Commenting on his new venture, he said: “I wanted a clean, well-presented industrial unit for my showroom so that we can offer customers an enjoyable viewing experience where they could view our vehicles in comfort regardless of the weather conditions.
““I’m looking forward to growing the company and ensuring it becomes the first point of call for anyone wanting a good quality car.”
Parks Motor Company will sell vehicles ranging from 12 months to 10 years old, with most priced between £2,500 and £30k.
His team, which will also offer vehicle sourcing options, has over 30 years of experience in the motor finance industry.
LCP industrial lettings manager Paula James said: “The Old Hall Industrial Estate is a well-located and popular business location and we are pleased that Parks Motor Company has chosen it for its new business venture.”
