Jardine Motors Group expands its porsche representation in London

Jardine Motors Group will be investing further in its Porsche representation in the London region with the successful completion of a tender to add a new Porsche Centre in Sidcup to its portfolio. Upon completion in 2017, the new Porsche Centre South London will bring the total number of Porsche Centres in the UK and Ireland network to 37.

The addition of Porsche Centre South London will increase Jardine Motors Group's Porsche representation to four locations, alongside its existing Porsche Centres in Cambridge, Colchester and East London.

This project is one of a suite of projects for the Jardine Motors Group for which K2 have been engaged to provide project and commercial management services.

The Sidcup Porsche project will be a new build development on the site of an existing car dealership – Lancaster Jaguar.  The existing dealership will close on 1 July 2016 at which time the existing building will be demolished.    

Currently, the design team is appointed and the project is targeting a planning application date of 23 May 2016. 

To achieve this, K2 have procured for Jardine’s a range of consultants including ecology, transport, arboriculture, archaeology and landscape.  In addition to inform the design a CCTV drainage survey and geo technical study are taking place. 

The completion date is forecast to be July 2017.
