Armstrong Prestige has started construction on a purpose built facility for Land Rover and Jaguar on Princes Street in Dunedin. Adjacent to the existing Armstrong Prestige dealership, the new facility is being built to specific factory design guidelines and will be large enough to house eight new vehicles and incorporate full customer lounge, café, merchandise and vehicle configuration facilities.

 

The concept work was done by MSH Architects in conjunction with the New Zealand Distributor, with design and drawings by local Dunedin Architects, Mason and Wells. Construction Company Calder Stewart have started work on site this week.

 

Rick Armstrong commented, “We are delighted to commence this exciting project which has been in planning for some time. These are key brands for our Group with huge potential. To give them a new purpose built state-of-the-art home in Otago is really exciting. We expect to open the new facility around August 2016.”

 

Jaguar Land Rover New Zealand’s general manager Steve Kenchington added, “This new Dunedin facility, combined with the recent re-development of facilities for Land Rover and Jaguar, as well as Volvo in Wellington, show a great commitment by the Armstrong Group to our brands. With many new models due in New Zealand in coming years, we see big growth opportunities. It is great to partner the Armstrong Group in both cities to help realise that potential.”
