ST LEONARDS MOTORS TO OPEN NEW SITE IN TUNBRIDGE WELLS

Vauxhall retailer, St Leonards Motors (SLM), is bucking the trend during tough economic times by opening a new site in Tunbridge Wells.

 

The retailer has been established in the South East of England for over 50 years, with its Vauxhall site in Hastings offering a range of new and used cars, commercial vehicles and even a dedicated Bodyshop. The retailer is now expanding the business across new horizons, with a state of the art new site set to open in Kent next month.

 

SLM Managing Director, Ian Wakeford, comments: "Here at St Leonards Motors, we have been keen to find an opportunity to expand and grow our Vauxhall franchise. With the magnificent site soon to open on Dowding Way in Tunbridge Wells, we can certainly deliver on all accounts.

 

"The building is undergoing a complete refurbishment before it opens in February and will offer new and used car sales, vehicle servicing and a fully stocked parts department, all under one roof."

 

The new showroom opens up a number of new job opportunities in the Tunbridge Wells area and both customers and staff alike can feel in safe hands, as heading up the new team will be Jonathan Tatlock, who arrives fresh from the SLM site in St Leonards-on-sea, where he has served as Sales Manager for over three years.

 

Jonathan adds: "We put looking after our customers above anything else and every site within the family-run business lives, eats and breathes the same philosophy, which is why I joined the company."

 

The SLM name brings with it an award-winning customer service record, having been named in Vauxhall's first ever Customer Excellence Awards this year. The retailer is one of the top 40 dealerships from around the UK to have achieved outstanding results in Vauxhall's customer surveys which monitored both sales and servicing.
