Car dealership reveals £750,000 expansion plans

Bowker BMW, on the docks in Preston, has revealed plans to expand the dealership.

The second phase would see the capacity of the dealership increase to accommodate a further 16 cars and 34 in total, creating as many as five new jobs in the process.

“With new models, and the i Agent launch in particular, we’ll be showcasing some of the most technologically-advanced production cars on the planet. So we need to ensure we have a facility here to match the cars on show.”

In January, Bowker unveiled a new £600,000 extension to the Mini showroom on the same site. The extension, built by Longridge-based Carefoot, increased the showroom capacity from three to eight cars and created three new jobs.
