Tyneside dealer joins MG network

MG Motor UK has further expanded its national dealer network with the appointment of Henson Motor Group. Trading under the name ‘Newcastle MG’, the Benton-based business is widely regarded as one of the UK’s fastest-growing new and used car supermarkets.

Taking on the MG franchise from March 2017, Newcastle MG will be responsible for retailing the MG3 Supermini and family-friendly SUV, the MG GS. Perfectly balancing practicality and performance, both models offer style and substance for a highly affordable price.

With more than 20 years’ experience in the sale of new and used cars, Henson Motor Group prides itself on delivering a professional service. A thorough understanding of the market and close customer relationships has helped to build a strong local reputation, with nearly half of all sales coming from referrals.

David Hodgson, General Manager at Henson Motor Group, commented: “At Henson Motor Group, we work hard to make your next car purchase as easy, stress free and enjoyable as possible. And, with a huge selection of vehicles, we stock the cars you really want!

“Joining the MG dealer network is a milestone achievement. As our first ever franchise brand, we will work in close partnership with the MG team to provide customers across the north east with the brand’s award-winning model range.

“Car preferences have continued to change over the past few years, with more customers opting for either the practicality of an SUV, or the fuel efficiency and inner-city driving capability of a Supermini. MG offers models in both these sectors, making our appointment to the network an exciting next step for the business.”

Matthew Cheyne, Head of Sales and Marketing at MG Motor UK, added: “As a fast-paced and dynamic dealership, we’re confident that Henson Motor Group will help to further elevate the MG brand across Newcastle and the surrounding areas.

“With a committed team, excellent facilities and clear strategy, customers will benefit from expert advice and professional service.”

The latest MG models are currently available with a range of special offers to make an already affordable range even more appealing. The stylish MG3 Supermini is available with either:

• 0% APR (available from just £115.93 per month with a minimum 20% deposit)
• £900 deposit contribution when financed on a personal contract purchase (PCP)

If you’re after something for the whole family – whether embarking on a road trip or braving the school-run – the striking MG GS is the perfect companion. Alongside a five-year/80,000-mile (whichever occurs first) full manufacturer parts and labour warranty, deals include:

• £660 deposit contribution when financed on a personal contract purchase (PCP)
• 0% APR with just a minimum 30% deposit monthly finance option
