Family run motor group acquires Burton car retailer

Read Motor Group has expanded their net in a takeover of Burton car retailer, TL Darby.

A longtime Volkswagen dealership, the latest move will see the TL Darby Volkswagen dealership become Read Hyundai Burton.

As well as being the place to go for all things Hyundai in Burton, the dealership however will still be working closely with Volkswagen to maintain its current Aftersales service to Volkswagen customers old and new.

As a Volkswagen authorised repairer, the same Volkswagen expert after sales team will continue to service and MOT all Volkswagen, Seat, Skoda and Cupra at the site as always.

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.

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.

The Read Motor Group owner, Mike Read said: “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.”
