Motorpoint opens in Edinburgh today

  • Motorpoint – the UK’s largest independent retailer of nearly new cars and vans – is all set to open its 18th UK store in Edinburgh on Friday 30 September.  
  • 25 Baileyfield Road in Edinburgh’s Portobello area is the location for Motorpoint’s new store and the team has assembled a wide range of the models most in demand by Edinburgh drivers – all available to drive away the same day.
  • The new Motorpoint Edinburgh store is the second store to open in Scotland with an existing store in Glasgow and a Motorpoint preparation centre in Motherwell.  
  • Half-term fun is coming! As part of its Edinburgh launch celebrations, Motorpoint will be hosting an event day on Wednesday 19 October which will include a live ‘Edinburgh’ art creation with acclaimed van and grime artist Ruddy Muddy, dancers from the Dunedin Dance Academy and a piper. Characters from Paw Patrol will also be there!
  • Motorpoint Edinburgh will be proudly supporting the work of the charity St. Columba’s Hospice through a range of fundraising events throughout the year.
  • The Motorpoint Price Promise means that Motorpoint guarantees to provide its customers with cars and vans at Unbeatable Prices.

Motorpoint – the UK’s largest independent retailer of nearly new cars and vans – has pulled together a huge stock of 400 of the vehicles most in demand by Edinburgh drivers as it opens its doors today – Friday 30 September 2022.

Despite a nationwide shortage of new and nearly new vehicles, the Motorpoint team in Edinburgh has worked tirelessly to ensure that Motorpoint Edinburgh has the widest possible range of the makes and models that local motorists want the most when it officially opens for business.

During half term, on Wednesday 19 October, the store will host a live ‘art’ performance by famous van grime artist Ruddy Muddy, as well as treating visitors to a taste of live Scottish Highland Dancing thanks to students from the Dunedin Dance Academy.

A piper will also perform during the day while Ruddy Muddy works his artistic magic to transform the side and rear of a Mercedes Benz Vito white van into a stunning creative masterpiece.

Richard Start, Regional Retail Director at Motorpoint Edinburgh, said: “We’ve pulled together an exciting line-up of vehicles to suit all budgets and lifestyles, all ready to drive away on the day.

“Our customers can come in, browse and buy in a pressure-free environment. They can sell their car to us if they want to, part exchange if they prefer and they can arrange the right finance and payment package through us too.”

He added: “Our team has worked hard to select a range and choice of vehicles for the people of Edinburgh from city cars to midsize and larger family cars, SUVs, and estates all available to drive away the same day. On top of this we know that whenever Motorpoint opens a new store our focus delivering unbeatable value for money means used car prices locally fall across the board. This can only be good news for local car buyers.”
