Evans Halshaw opens its first Seat dealership in Harrogate

Evans Halshaw, the UK's largest volume car retailer and part of the Pendragon automotive retail group, has opened its first ever Seat dealership, in Harrogate.

The new showroom not only puts Seat on the map in the North Yorkshire town, quite literally - it has
boosted the local economy with the creation of six new jobs, of a total staff of 28.

The new Dealership has enough floor space for 80 used cars in addition to the full array of new Seat models, including the stunning new Leon five-door hatchback and, soon, the sleek new three-door Leon SC.

Evans Halshaw Seat in Harrogate becomes the latest Seat dealership in the UK, with the brand embarking upon ambitious plans to expand its dealer network and broaden its reach in the UK.

"This new partnership with Pendragon PLC is testament to the strength of Seat's growth in the UK. With the fantastic new Leon driving record sales results, Seat is increasingly attracting the best dealer investors in the industry," enthuses Ashley Andrew, Seat UK Head of Operations.

"This new partnership is greatly important to our company. As Evans Halshaw has a long heritage in Yorkshire, it's the perfect starting opportunity to build our relationship with Seat and its award-winning cars," said Trevor Finn, Chief Executive at Pendragon PLC.
