A Blackburn car dealership has been sold after the previous owner moved into a new location and joined two other franchises earlier last year.

Perrys Blackburn Mazda moved into a new location with 'more modern facilities to better serve customers'.

On behalf of Perry’s Motor Sales, estate agent Savills has now completed the sale of the long leasehold of Brownhill Garage in Blackburn to North West Automobiles Limited for £600,000.

Alice Bennett, Associate in the Savills Automotive team, says: “We are delighted to complete the sale of this site to North West Automobiles Limited.

"The disposal allowed our client to consolidate all their franchised brands into a single site in Blackburn.”

The property was recently used as a Mazda car dealership and comprises a car showroom with a detached workshop providing a total of 10,505 square feet of accommodation on a site of 0.47 acres.

The property is situated in a prominent location fronting Whalley New Road with quick access to the M65.

On Monday, November 27, 2023, the Blackburn Mazda dealership moved to join the Peugeot and SEAT franchises at New Toll Bar Garage, a few minutes’ drive away.

Darron Ardon, managing director of Perry’s Blackburn Mazda, said: "Nothing has changed other than our location.

"So rest assured, Perrys Blackburn Mazda will remain your trusted Mazda dealership.

"At New Toll Bar Garage, we continue to deliver top-notch sales, servicing, MOT and repairs for Mazda, Peugeot and SEAT vehicles, as well as any other makes and models."

The team of Mazda specialists also moved to the new location, and Perrys Blackburn remains as a Mazda, Peugeot and SEAT authorised repairer, service centre and car sales dealership.
