A LONG-awaited move to new premises will come to fruition for Kendal's Pye Motors this weekend as sales begin at the new Shap Road showroom.

All new and used stock will be located at the purpose built facility from tomorrow (Saturday) with all other departments including parts and service following on Monday.

The relocation of the successful dealership, which has been located at premises in the town's Mintsfeet Road since 1997, comes during its 80th year.

David Swallow, Pye Motors branch manager, said: "It's been long awaited but our new premises will enable our customers to experience Ford products in the comfort they deserve."
