McLaren supercar showroom gets December start date
A contractor has been appointed to build the second phase of the McLaren supercar showroom in Leeds.
McLaren Leeds is currently operated by Park’s Motor Group from a temporary site at Gateway 45 Leeds.
On 3 December, APP Construction will commence work on the purpose-built 12,000 sq ft showroom, with a completion date set for summer 2019.
The new showroom, workshop and valeting bays, designed by architect Nimmo & Partners, will be accessed via one of the main arterial roads into Leeds, at junction 45 of the M1.
This is a second McLaren business for Park’s Motor Group, which opened its first in Glasgow in 2014 and achieved the accolade of McLaren global retailer of the year in both 2015 and 2016.
McLaren Leeds joins the existing network of facilities in Ascot, Birmingham, Bristol, Glasgow, Hatfield, London and Manchester.
John White of APP Construction said: “We have a fantastic track record in the automotive sector working with marques, including Jaguar Land Rover, for some of the country’s top retailers.
“Building Yorkshire’s first permanent McLaren supercar showroom in our home town of Leeds is an exciting project and we’re delighted Park’s Motor Group trust us with this, their first automotive retail business south of the border.”
