Baytree appointed as agent for new Derby-built supercar
Prestige and performance car dealership Baytree Cars has been appointed as the UK agent for a new Derby-built supercar.
The company, in Chequers Lane, has been chosen to market Mulholland Automotive’s Legend 480, a supercar that is scheduled to complete production in Derby this year.
The appointment comes as Baytree reveals it doubled its turnover in 2020, despite the Covid-19 pandemic.
The firm, which specialises in prestige brands such as Ferrari, McLaren, Porsche and Bentley, saw turnover rise from £750,000 to £1.5 million a month.
It also doubled the size of its showroom to accommodate the increase in cars it now has available.
Director Stephen Pinchbeck said: “Extra investment in the company has meant that we went to the next level in 2020.
“We have a passion for high-quality cars and were delighted recently to become recognised as a true Supercar dealership by the Supercar Driver Club.
“This is the Bible of the prestige and performance car industry and shows that we are one of the leading dealerships in the country.”
Speaking about being selected as an agent for the Mulholland Legend 480, fellow director Chris McDermott said: “It is another feather in our cap that we have been chosen by Mulholland Automotive to market their Legend 480.
“This is a really exciting product and it will be a real buzz for a Derby team to be the first to sell a Derby-built car.”
