Motor group snaps up two North Yorkshire sites

CAR dealership Lloyd Motor Group has bought up two North Yorkshire sites as they continue to grow in the region.
Lloyd has bought the Ripon Land Rover site and Service Centre in Leyburn.
The deal was for an undisclosed amount, and advised upon by UNW.
The Cumbrian-based group operates 19 sites across northern England and southern Scotland, including Land Rover dealerships in Carlisle and Kelso.
The family-owned motor group is 40 years old this year, and includes brands such as Jaguar, Land Rover, BMW, MINI, Volvo, Honda, BMW Motorrad and Honda Bikes.
It has 1,000 staff across the group, which includes sister company Lloyd Ltd.
Lloyd’s managing director, Bryan Lloyd, said: “As a family-owned and family-run business, our people are our most valuable asset in establishing a brand that our customers can trust.
“Ripon Land Rover is a great business and has a first-class team who share our passion for excellent customer service. We look forward to welcoming Ripon’s staff and customers to the Lloyd family.”
Ripon Land Rover managing director, Geoff Brown, said: “We are delighted that Lloyd Motors, along with our dedicated team, will continue to provide a great customer experience and service that we have been renowned for over the past 34 years.”
