It features a 10-car showroom, eight bay workshops and space for 60 used cars.

Mark Robinson, Vantage chief executive (pictured), said: “This expansion is a strategically important move for us that will see our presence in the North West significantly bolstered.

“We opened our first Hyundai dealership in Salford in 2011 and have gone on to secure further sites in the area, opening centres in Oldham and Preston, and now Stockport, our fourth in the region.

“The Stockport centre is situated in close proximity to Manchester Airport and therefore, thanks to its convenient location we look forward to welcoming visitors from Hyundai’s Korean operations.

“It is the jewel in Hyundai UK’s crown. The move is also further testament to our burgeoning relationship with the Hyundai brand.

“I am extremely pleased that with the opening of the centre we have been able to bring new jobs and investment to the area.”

Over the past year Vantage turnover has grown from £65m to more than £200m and the group has increased its number of sites from seven in Yorkshire and Lancashire to 18 across the North of England and the West Midlands. It employs 400 people.
