Vertu Motors acquires Derby site in £7.1m deal

North East automotive retailer Vertu Motors has acquired the Derby multi-dealership site which it has operated from since 2012, in a move it says secures the strategically important location.

In a £7.1m deal, plus fees, Gateshead based Vertu has taken control of the freehold and long leasehold interests of the 5.5 acre site, where it acquired dealerships from Co-operative Group Motors Limited ten years ago.

A lease on the premises was granted to the Vertu at the time of the purchase and is due to expire in February 2026.
