Car supermarket turned dealer group, Right Car, has added a second Renault and Dacia dealership to it’s portfolio, the new site which is on West Coates Lane in Grimsby follows the Hull dealership that the firm opened earlier in 2016.

A £350,000 investment has transforming a used car outlet with a 2.5-acre plot, to the latest Renault Store showroom design complete with iPads and a ‘brand bar’, EV charging points, a 15-bay workshop and space for 300 cars.

The opening has created a further 10 jobs, taking the Right Car Renault and Dacia team to over 40. Notably, the new positions include the appointment of a Fleet Manager, as Right Car believes that such models as the All-New Mégane, New Clio and All-New Kadjar crossover, together with the award-winning LCV range that consists of the Kangoo, Trafic and Master, represent a highly attractive proposition to local business users that have previously not considered the Renault and Dacia ranges.

Talking about the move, Shaun Kamis, Managing Director, Right Car, said, “From a ‘cold start’ we have never experienced anything like the level of success as we have with our Renault and Dacia dealership in Hull, so when we had the opportunity to re-establish the brand in Grimsby and also knowing the support that we have received from the manufacturer, it was a natural progression for Right Car.

“For us, Renault and Dacia are a perfect fit. We strive to put ourselves ‘out there’ and we like the way that Renault is very proactive in promoting the brand and raising awareness. With recent new models and more to come, plus excellent offers across the range, Renault is providing a very sound basis on which to open a new dealership and there’s plenty happening that gives people a reason to come and visit us.”

Kamis adds, “Based on what we have already experienced and what we are seeing, the Groupe Renault franchise is one that we can definitely grow with. As more franchise opportunities arise, we will definitely look to expand our representation of the brands.”

Mark Potter, Director, Northern Region, Groupe Renault UK, said, “We’re delighted that Right Car has chosen to once again invest in the Groupe Renault franchise and that its Hull dealership has demonstrated beyond any doubt the potential of our franchise. In a very short period of time, Right Car has proved to be an excellent partner and with its presence and reputation in the region already firmly established, we know that they are the perfect group to bring the Renault and Dacia brands back to Grimsby.

“With the reassurance of the Right Car name, anyone in the area who has an interest in Renault or Dacia is now safe in the knowledge that their requirements will be met to the highest standard by an experienced and knowledgeable team that place customer service above all else.”
