Read Motor Group has acquired TL Darby, a Volkswagen dealership in Burton, for an undisclosed sum.
The location will now become Read Hyundai Burton, but will remain as an authorised Volkswagen repairer.
The same VW aftersales team will remain at the business to continue to service and MoT VW, Seat, Skoda and Cupra vehicles.
The Read Motor Group has grown from a single Hyundai site in 2010, to spanning 10 sites across the north and midlands area.
It is family owned and run, with company owner Mike Read still very much in the driving seat of the business.
Read recently announced being voted Hyundai National Retailer Group of the Year for 2023, as well as achieving Number One Retailer Group for Customer Focus for the second year running.
Read said: “When it comes to customer service, our customers deserve all our expertise and professionalism – there is simply no substitute and that will never change.”
TL Darby has been a recognisable name and family-run business in the local area for over 50 years, and as such, owner Richard Darby was keen to be handing over the reins to a fellow family-run business owner.
Read added: “Richard and the team at TL Darby have long been an important part of the local community, and I am proud to continue his legacy by serving customers in the Burton area with the same team, looking after customers old and new alike.
“The Hyundai brand is a very exciting brand and has some great things to offer, and I very much look forward to bringing it to Burton.”
