Sinclair Group, Wales’ largest motor retailer, is further expanding and strengthening its association with Jaguar Land Rover with the acquisition of two more sites.
The Group has extended its reach across all of South Wales after completing the purchase of the Stratstone Jaguar Land Rover businesses in Cardiff and Newport from Lithia UK. The deal increases the Sinclair JLR portfolio to six sites.
Situated on Hadfield Road, the Cardiff site opened in 2017 incorporating JLR’s Arch concept design and features a state-of-the-art, 18-car showroom together with an Approved Used display area for up to 80 vehicles. It has a drive-in service reception and a 22-bay workshop.
The Newport operation on Longditch Road was originally a dedicated service centre but was redeveloped as an Approved Used Retailer in September 2023. It can display up to 30 pre-owned vehicles and retains full after sales capability with a 10-bay workshop.
All 60 staff employed across the two sites have transferred to the Sinclair Group, which was named 2024 Land Rover Retail Partner of the Year at the JLR Retailer of the Year Awards in March when the business was honoured in five categories for its excellence in service and performance.
