Marshall Motor Group, one of the UK’s largest car dealership operators, is delighted to announce that its new Nissan store in Cambridge is open for business.
The new dealership, which has created 20 jobs, welcomed its first customers earlier this month. Marshall Nissan Cambridge is now the city’s only Nissan new car, approved used car, service and parts franchise and sees the Japanese manufacturer make a welcome return to the area.
Serving customers from across Cambridgeshire and beyond, the facility includes a six-car showroom, an exterior display area for 40 used vehicles, a six-bay workshop, a number of electric charging points, a customer lounge, and a coffee bar.
Craig Wilson, Head of Business at Marshall Nissan Cambridge, said: ‘‘Naturally we’re delighted that our new dealership is open – it’s great to be up and running and the showroom and workshop are looking superb.
‘‘We’re still adding a few finishing touches to the site but we’re very much ready to do business and we have been welcoming many customers who are new to Nissan, as well as others who are familiar with the brand.
Exceptionally popular
‘‘The Nissan range of cars is second-to-none. In addition to the all-electric duo of LEAF and ARIYA, the crossovers Juke and Qashqai continue to be exceptionally popular and both have been comprehensively refreshed this year to keep them ahead of the competition.
‘‘Our Sales Manager Alex Langford and his team are experts in all things Nissan and are on hand to explain the many benefits of the cars in the line-up. A warm welcome is guaranteed and we serve a decent cup of coffee too!’’
Jon Roberts, Marshall Nissan Franchise Director, added: “As Craig says, we are thrilled to welcome customers to our new Cambridge dealership – it’s a territory that is absolutely key for us.
‘‘The investment we have made in the site demonstrates the value we attach to our relationship with Nissan. The brand currently finds itself in a very strong position, thanks to its continuing focus on hybrid and all-electric technology.
‘‘Added to that, it’s great to remind customers that models such as Juke, Qashqai and LEAF are built right here in the UK, at Nissan’s hugely successful Sunderland factory.
“We are pleased to be investing further with Nissan and strengthening the partnership we share, whilst providing our customers with the very best experiences possible.’’
Marshall Motor Group now operates 11 Nissan dealerships, with sister sites in locations such as Reading, Berkshire; Maidstone, Kent; and Kidlington, Oxfordshire.
