On the afternoon of January 15th the ink dried on a deal to purchase 700 Westtown Road, in West Chester, formerly Saturn of West Chester. This 4.5 acre swath of land will be the new home of Scott Select, “simply the best pre-owned cars”.
The exact business plan for Scott Select is still be fine tuned, but Scott will be taking 80 years of automotive sales and service experience and injecting into this new venture. With Scott Honda finishing as the #2 Certified Honda dealer in the country two yeas in a row, we feel we have a great blue print for selling newer model, impeccably reconditioned vehicles in the Delaware Valley.
“To have this new property on a well traveled road and right next to Scott Honda gives us a huge advantage,” says Vice President Duke Scott. “Our sales people will be able to sell between both stores and our service departments will be able to handle overflow at either location.”
Scott had planned to build an entirely new “green” building further down Westtown Road and was close to breaking ground when the Winner Automotive Group announced the sale of their Saturn property last fall. It was a no-brainer for Scott, what’s more green than reusing an existing building and there are still plans to possibly use solar technology and LED lighting in the new building.
“We are really looking forward to opening the doors of this new store,” Duke told Sconda Blog. “It will be a push to get it open as soon as we’d like, with the right people in place, but we know we have resources to make it happen.”
