Cambridge based Marshall Motor Group are set to open a multi-million pound pair of Jaguar and Land Rover dealerships on Milton Gate, Milton Park near Didcot, Oxfordshire on Monday 24th October.
Replacing the Ridgeway dealerships in Cumnor and branded as “Marshall Jaguar Oxford” and “Marshall Land Rover Oxford”, the plot at 5 Milton Gate is the largest plot at 3.33 acres next to the A34 Milton Interchange and at the gateway to Milton Park. The conjoined dealerships will have a 3 lane drive in service reception, 20 workshop bays and a barista style coffee bar for customers to use while they kick their heels.
Talking about the project, Adrian Wallington, Marshall JLR Franchise Director, said, “The opening of this stunning facility represents another step in our growth and investment strategy in Oxfordshire for the Jaguar and Land Rover brands. Both brands have a fantastic range of products and some exciting developments planned. This brand new facility will enhance both the customer and our colleague’s experiences.”
Wallington continues, “Milton Gate, is perfect for our requirements, both in terms of the immediate neighbourhood and the road network. Having the second largest business and science park in Europe next door to us will certainly help our plans to further increase penetration of the Jaguar and Land Rover brands in Oxfordshire.”
All of the staff from the Ridgeway Land Rover and Jaguar facilities in Cumnor will transfer to Milton Gate and those locations will close. Marshall also represents Land Rover in Bedford, Cambridge, Lincoln, Melton Mowbray, Peterborough and Halesworth and the Jaguar brand in Cambridge, Ipswich, Lincoln and Peterborough.
Following the opening in Didcot, November 2016 will see Marshall start work on a new Jaguar Land Rover showroom on Greenham Business Park, Newbury’s largest business park.
