Strategy for driving growth

Lookers continued its impressive development in FY16, delivering yet another record performance. The buoyancy of the UK car market combined with the disposal of the parts distribution business enabled management to further its consolidate and build strategy. The addition of Warwick Holdings and Knights North West are further positive developments, with more acquisitions likely during 2017 adding to organic progression.
