Right Car has opened a new Renault and Dacia dealership in Grimsby – and is confident it can grow further with the brands.

The new West Coates Lane dealership is in addition to the dealer’s first Renault and Dacia centre in Hull that launched earlier this year.

Right Car has invested more than £350,000 in transforming what was one of its pre-owned car outlets, occupying a 2.5-acre plot, with a nine-car showroom.

The Renault Store showroom design has an iPad-equipped ‘brand bar’, displays, EV charging points, a 15-bay workshop and space to display more than 300 pre-owned vehicles.

Ten jobs have been created taking the Right Car Renault and Dacia team to over 40.

The new positions include a fleet manager, as Right Car targets local businesses with both brand’s car and van ranges.

Shaun Kamis, Right Car managing director, 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.

“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.

“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.”
