MACKLIN Motors has opened the doors of its 10th Scottish location, unveiling the result of a £5million investment to create a modern purpose-built dealership in Edinburgh.

The new location in Newbridge offers sales and servicing for Peugeot, Kia and MG brands, with up to 120 vehicles displayed across the site and a 16-bay service area operated by manufacturer accredited technicians.

Existing employees have relocated from a pre-existing dealership on Bankhead Road, Edinburgh, with 14 new jobs created – including two apprenticeships – as part of the move.

The substantial investment by Macklin Motors signifies its confidence in the region and further significant developments are in the pipeline.

Across the new multi-franchise site, the dealership benefits from all the latest technology, including interactive walls that allow customers to customise their vehicle specification.

Additionally, automatic number plate recognition is able to notify the service centre to a customer’s arrival and begins the check-in process from the moment they reach the site.
