Car dealer Oakmere Motor Group has taken on its first motorcycle franchise.
The group now represents Norton in Cheshire. Jonathan Jarratt, managing director of Oakmere Motor Group, said: “Norton Motorcycles is Oakmere’s very first motorcycle brand, and what a name to add to our showroom.
“It’s a company with an incredibly rich heritage and exciting new products. From the outset, it was clear Norton shared our values and a passion for quality, so we are delighted that we are now a Norton sales partner.”
Christian Gladwell, chief commercial officer at Norton Motorcycles, said: “We’re very excited that Norton can join a well-established and professional dealership such as Oakmere.
“They’ve had great success over 45 years with the likes of Lotus, Morgan and Caterham, so Norton is the perfect addition to their growing portfolio.”
Established in 1978 as a family-run Lotus specialist, Oakmere Motor Group has grown over the past 45 years and now represents Toyota, Mazda, Lotus, Caterham and TVR.
