Sytner Car Supermarket Division Information

Sytner was founded in 1968 by British Touring Car Champion Frank Sytner and his older brother Alan Sytner. With the first Sytner dealership located in Nottingham, it took Frank and Alan just two years to be awarded the BMW franchise for Nottingham. After spending many years working exclusively with BMW, the decision was made to diversify the Group to represent other prestige marques and by 1997 the dealership count had reached double figures; including such brands as Ferrari, Audi and Mercedes-Benz. By 2002, the business had continued to rapidly grow and caught the attention of Roger Penske; ultimately joining the Penske Automotive Group (PAG) later that year. In June 2019 the two brands under our Car Supermarket Division Umbrella CarShop, acquired by the Sytner Group in 2017 and The Car People, acquired in 2018 we brought together under the CarShop brand operating ten stores nationwide. Today, Sytner Group is the UK's largest motor dealer by revenue and despite our growth and increasing scale, we are proud to still retain a strong family ‘Sytner’ culture across all of our Divisions.
