A new servicing and parts location has been launched by Mercedes-Benz dealer Intercounty Truck & Van.
The site in Dunstable, Bedfordshire, is said to offer a workshop for the servicing and maintenance of all makes of vans, over-the-counter parts, and a range of EV facilities including eight chargers.
The site will also house three 24-hour service vans, with full 24-hour servicing at the site set to follow in the near future.
Intercounty has also announced an investment in technician training, including through the Mercedes-Benz EV technical training pathway.
Intercounty managing director Nick Skillman said: “The launch of our new Dunstable site offers incredible opportunity, both for us as a business and for the local economy – particularly as we welcome the transition to electric.
“We’ve been operating as a Mercedes-Benz franchise for over 20 years, covering Northamptonshire, Cambridgeshire, Buckinghamshire and Lincolnshire.
“Now, we have a new, state-of-the-art dealership with huge market potential that sits in a prime location in Bedfordshire – a stone’s throw from the M1 and around the corner from our customers at Luton Airport, which is set to double in capacity over the next 20 years.
“The new dealership has been built to meet the demands of loyal customers in the area as well as an engaged local community that is committed to being more sustainable – and we couldn’t be more excited for its launch.”
Mercedes-Benz Vans UK customer operations director Simon Neill said: “Intercounty Truck & Van has been a trusted partner of Mercedes-Benz Vans for over 20 years and we are delighted to support the launch of this new, exciting customer service and parts location.”
