New MG dealer pulls in the crowds at family fun day launch event
Leisure World Group, which is based in Catterick, threw open its doors to the public last month, heralding the addition of MG Motor UK to its franchise. The car dealership hosted the family fun day to showcase its latest models and bring the local community together.
From games and special offers, to food, drink and even a classic car show, the day had something for everyone to enjoy. Visitors were also given the chance to drive the all-new GS SUV and MG3 supermini, putting the latest models to the test!
Matthew Kinsell, Commercial Director at Leisure World Group, said: “Joining the MG dealer network is a hugely exciting announcement for the business. We’re delighted to partner with such a well-recognised brand and can’t wait to showcase the latest models in our showroom!
“Last month’s family fun day was an excellent opportunity to officially launch the addition of MG to our franchise, with a number of activities for all the family to enjoy. The event created quite a stir and showed a promising start for the partnership.”
