Background
Marshall Motor Group, a top 10 UK motor dealer group founded in 1909 in Cambridge, is planning to redevelop its Ford Commercial Vehicles showroom in the next few years. In the meantime, it wished to upgrade its current facilities and needed a cost-effective interim solution that had the look, feel and properties of a permanent building without the associated costs.
Smart-Space provided Marshall with a 15m x 25m bespoke semi-permanent building.
Solution
The structure supplied features windows, lighting, office space, a high roof and bi-fold doors to enable easy vehicle access.
Heat loss concerns were alleviated with the Smart-Space solution as the 40mm insulated steel roof and 40mm steel wall cladding, retains substantially more heat compared to other temporary buildings with PVC fabric roofs.
Marshall chose Smart-Space because of the durability, flexibility and variety of its product options, and because it needed a bespoke solution delivered within a tight timescale. The entire project took just a week to complete from start to finish.

Commercial vehicle showroom building
"Their expertise and knowledge shone through during the project ” Smart-Space provided an outstanding service and an excellent product that met our requirements, and was virtually indistinguishable from a bricks and mortar showroom.
I wouldn’t hesitate in using them again as the team provided an exceptional service with excellent communication throughout the build and a quick turnaround. Their expertise and knowledge shone through during the project and I couldn’t have asked for better service.
Terry Moore, Projects Facility Manager Marshall Motor Group
