South coast dealer Seward Group has plans to add two new businesses to its network of accident repair centres by the summer.

The first is currently being finished in the centre of Southampton. It will commence operation in April, equipped with 30 internal repair bays and secure storage for 75 vehicles. The second, in Havant, Portsmouth, is expected to open several weeks later.

This brings Seward ARC’s network to nine bodyshops, completing over 15,000 repairs per year for a region spanning Brighton to Poole.
