The new building incorporates all of the current Mercedes Benz corporate architectural elements, including the blue spine wall and circular reception area that was central to the layout of the dealership; it is expressed both internally and externally with the construction of a blue circular tower. The showroom will accommodate up to 23 new cars and the workshop has 15 work bays and MOT. The remaining accommodation is laid out to form a parts store, ancillary staff offices, toilets and welfare facilities.
