Motor business drives into new site as growth plans speed ahead

SOUTH Yorkshire-based Usedcar123 has bought a new site as its drives ahead with its ambitious growth plans.

Usedcar123 was launched in 2013 and headquartered at Sandtoft Industrial Estate in Belton, Doncaster.

The business, which is operated by a local team of entrepreneurs who also run Axholme Car Company and Sandtoft Car Company, said the used car servicing is a natural progression from the car sales they already provide.

The new site has enabled them to purchase the freehold premises securing the future of the business and providing them with more room to expand.

Grant Lees, one of the directors of Usedcar123, said: “The car sales have been up and running for a while now and are becoming busier by the month. We decided we wanted to harness the loyalty of our customers and launch our own local servicing centre where we could provide a better customer experience. Purchasing premises has been a big step but it provides security for the future and a great foundation to take the business to the next level.”

Usedcar123 employs 30 staff locally and group turnover for this year is expected to exceed £10m.

Kevin Peart, Barclays relationship director, said: “We’ve supported Usedcar123 for several years now and we’re very proud to be associated with the next stage of their development and growth. The new site will increase capacity and I know they already have exciting plans for a new forecourt which will lead to a further increase in sales.”
