    “We’re always listening to our customers, which is why we’re launching Lookers Outlet Motherwell which will provide the very best used cars at more affordable prices,” John Gavin, general manager of Lookers Nissan and Hyundai Motherwell, said.

    “I’m looking forward to welcoming customers to see our range of offers. There really is something for everyone with the selection we will have available at the site.”

    Lookers has also been quick to stress its new Outlets differ from car supermarkets — which also offer all-makes of used cars — because of the franchised dealer standards it uses.

    “Lookers Outlet is not a used car supermarket concept and differs by providing customers with the same suite of aftercare provision afforded to its franchised dealership customers, including extended warranty,” a Lookers spokesman said.

    “Only the very best used cars will be selected and placed in Lookers Outlet, offering customers a wide range of models, brands and price points.”

    And Lookers volume division’s franchise director Colin Pybus welcome the expansion of the Outlet concept into Scotland.

    “The introduction of Lookers Outlet to our business is a welcome one,” Pybus said. ““It is wonderful that we are now able to offer a wider range of the very best used cars in our stock, all at affordable prices.

    “The standard of cars available in our outlet is excellent and I am confident that it will be a great success.”
