International Motors Group, the Coleshill-based Japanese car importer, has appointed Lawrence Good to the new position of executive director, sales and marketing.

Good leaves Milton Keynes-based Chrysler Group where he has been UK sales director since July 2002.

Subaru (UK) and Isuzu (UK), managing director, Andrew Edmiston, said: “Good’s history with Chrysler Jeep makes him ideally placed to exploit the tremendous expansion potential of the Subaru franchise in particular.

“His time with Chrysler Jeep saw significant increase in volume and that company’s expertise with performance cars and 4x4s plus its specialist dealer network makes a good fit.”

The IM Group import portfolio includes Subaru, Isuzu and Daihatsu.
