Description

Retirement sale: established motor business on a 0.351-acre site with space for up to 40 vehicles

Moray Motors is a well-established MOT, servicing and vehicle repair business that has traded successfully from Coulardbank Industrial Estate, Lossiemouth for more than 30 years. It is being sold due to the owners' retirement. The business has a strong record of consistent profits, supported by the last three years' accounts. Full profit information is available on request to seriously interested parties.

The space is what sets this opportunity apart. The business sits on a substantial site of approximately 0.351 acres with secure parking and vehicle storage for up to 40 cars. Few garages in the area can offer this. It gives easy access for customers and recovery vehicles, room to hold vehicles awaiting work, and a ready-made platform for growth.

Scope to bring back car sales. The owner successfully ran a used-car sales operation from the site until around three years ago, when he chose to focus on servicing and MOTs. With the forecourt space already in place, a new owner could relaunch vehicle sales alongside the existing workshop (subject to any necessary consents), adding a second income stream with minimal set-up cost.

The workshop measures approximately 12.2m x 15m (about 1,970 sq ft) and includes a Class 4 ATL (Automated Test Lane) MOT testing facility, a working area and an office/reception. The sale includes the agreed fixtures, machinery and workshop equipment.

Included in the sale:

  • The workshop building, owned outright

  • The remaining ground lease from The Moray Council, approximately 66 years unexpired, at an annual ground rent of approximately £4,920

  • The Moray Motors business name, goodwill and established customer database

  • The existing website and telephone number

  • The Class 4 ATL MOT testing facility

  • Agreed fixtures, machinery and workshop equipment

Vehicles on site are excluded unless agreed separately.

This is an ideal opportunity for an experienced motor trade operator looking to expand, a technician ready to run their own business, or someone looking to move to a high-quality coastal lifestyle in the north of Scotland with an income from day one.

Retirement sale. Accounts and profit information available on request to seriously interested parties.
