The glass-fronted dealership and its range of motors has stood out for years amongst the shops of Abington Square, which is now empty and fenced off to the public.

It is not known if anyone is set to move into either of the empty showrooms.

The Chronicle and Echo reported in 2019 that Guy Salmon were 'keen to seek new tenants for the building'.

Guy Salmon was contacted for comment but no one was available to speak to the press at this time.
