    Arnold Clark has announced its expansion into Wales with the opening of its very first dealership in Cardiff.

    The new Arnold Clark Motorstore / OMODA / JAECOO showroom, located at 281 Penarth Road, has now opened its doors and is ready to welcome customers from across the region.

    Arnold Clark, the UK’s largest independently owned, family-run car retailer, has over 180 branches across Scotland and England. The new Cardiff showroom marks the Group’s first location in Wales.

    The site will feature around 150 used cars, alongside the latest models from the OMODA and JAECOO ranges.

    OMODA and JAECOO, part of Chinese automotive giant Chery Automobile, joined the Arnold Clark Group in 2024 when the brands entered the UK market. Since then, they have quickly gained popularity with drivers thanks to their stylish designs, advanced technology and competitive pricing.

    The Arnold Clark Cardiff branch provides customers with the opportunity to explore these innovative new models up close. There are currently over 20,000 cars in stock across the Arnold Clark Group, with the company guaranteeing the best used car deals in the UK.

    The site, formerly owned by Fordthorne, has a Service department and bodyshop. As part of the transition, almost 70 employees will be joining Arnold Clark, with the Group also hiring for six new product consultant roles.

    Russell Borrie, Chief Executive Officer at Arnold Clark, said: ‘We’re incredibly proud to open our first branch in Wales and bring Arnold Clark to Cardiff.

    ‘This is an exciting milestone for the business, and we’re looking forward to welcoming customers to our new Motorstore. With a fantastic range of used cars and the impressive OMODA and JAECOO line-up,
