The Midlands-based main contractor has been appointed by leading dealership chain JCT600 to build the stand alone, two-storey retail centre.

Under the £5.7m construction contract, MCS Group will also build an adjacent specialist vehicle preparation and repair centre.

The showroom will be only the third in the UK to sport Ferrari’s latest corporate identity, creating an art gallery-style experience with a focus on the use of multi-media and improved customer interaction.

Construction work is due to start on the development later this month with completion expected in late summer 2020.

Once completed, the Ferrari Leeds showroom will move from its current home at JCT600 Brooklands in Lower Wortley, to the new site on City West Business Park, The Boulevard.

Tom Armstrong, brand director for JCT600’s specialist brands said: “Having partnered with Ferrari for nearly 40 years, we are proud to be building one of the first showrooms in the UK to sport the iconic marque’s latest stylish corporate identity.”

MCS Group commercial manager Nick Green said: “We’re excited at being awarded the contract to deliver what will be a spectacular showroom for Ferrari and JCT600.

“We’ve got almost two decades of experience in building outstanding dealerships for some of the world’s top motoring brands and this one promises to be something very special.”
