Arbury turns 25 in 2025

Did you know that your local award-winning car dealer has been in your corner for 25 years? Arbury are celebrating a huge milestone as we turn 25 in 2025!

Arbury turns 25 in 2025

Since the turn of the millennium, Arbury have been on an incredible journey. Founded by David Stenning, Anthony Archer and Neil Barrett, we first opened our doors on 1 April 2000 in the form of an Arbury service station in Bulkington.

From that moment on, we have continued to flourish – now proudly operating 17 sites across the West Midlands and representing eight esteemed brands, including Peugeot, Fiat, Škoda, Nissan, SEAT, Abarth, CUPRA and, most recently, Leapmotor. Not to mention launching our very own leasing and used car centres!

It’s been quite the 25 years of growth, challenges, opportunities and success, yet none of it would have been possible without you, our loyal customers and the incredible dedication and hard work of #Team Arbury. We’re thrilled to have been able to serve the local community and beyond for all these years and want to thank you for your continued support.

To commemorate this momentous occasion, we’ve updated our logo to act as a symbol of all we’ve accomplished and the vital role each and every one of you has played in getting us here.

Here’s some of our favourite moments from over the last 25 years…

2014

We were commended as the ‘Best Retailer Group’ at the AM Awards 2014 and recognised by Peugeot as their top dealer group in the UK – taking five of the top positions in the Guild of Gold Lion award ranking, including the highly coveted first place.
