NAC MG (UK) has announced that it has appointed Luffield Cars and the Merritts Motor Group as the UK’s first official MG franchise dealers since NAC bought the company two years ago.
NAC anticipate that the MG retail network will expand to around 80 dealers nationwide.
The new MG TF 2-seater sportscar which recently made its public debut, will be sold from the Luffield Cars premises in Loughborough, Leicestershire, and two of the Merritts Motor Group’s Buckinghamshire-based premises in Amersham and Aylesbury.
Each will have dedicated showroom space adhering to the MG’s new corporate identity guidelines which will house MG sales personnel, and a service technician.
Delighted at the unveiling of the new MG franchise dealers, Stephen Cox, Sales and Franchising Manager for NAC MG (UK) explains: “We are very pleased to welcome two very highly-experienced and well-renowned retail groups to the MG network.
"This is another indication of the very bright future that the brand can look forward to.”
