Van Mossel Automotive Group has reached an agreement with Peter Vardy Group to acquire Porsche Centre Perth and Porsche Centre Aberdeen. With this intended transaction, the group will add two Porsche Centres and two Porsche Service Centres to its international network. The intended transaction is subject to regulatory approval from the FCA, with completion expected in the coming weeks.

The locations are situated in the Scottish cities of Perth and Aberdeen and are fully dedicated to the Porsche brand. In 2025, a total of 1,623 vehicles were sold through both locations, including 512 new and 1,111 pre-owned Porsche models. The organisation employs 93 staff members and generated revenue of €141.35 million in 2025.

With this expansion, Van Mossel further strengthens its position in the premium segment in the United Kingdom. The addition of these two locations aligns with Van Mossel’s international growth strategy in Europe.

The activities will operate under the umbrella of Van Mossel Automotive International, the international division of Van Mossel Automotive Group, where all activities outside the Benelux are organised.

Eric Berkhof, CEO Van Mossel Automotive Group: “With Porsche Centre Perth and Porsche Centre Aberdeen, we are adding two strong Porsche locations to our international network. This step fits well with our strategy to further expand our presence in the United Kingdom. We look forward to working together with the team in Perth and Aberdeen to further develop the activities and to continue offering Porsche customers in the region a high-quality brand experience.”

Peter Vardy, CEO, Peter Vardy Global: “I am extremely proud of the business we have built and the success we have enjoyed with Porsche over the years. It has been a pleasure to develop two brand-new purpose-built Porsche dealerships in Aberdeen and Perth, and two new Service centres to support the expanding number of Porsche cars on the roads today. The Porsche brand has an exciting future ahead, our colleagues have new opportunities, and I am confident that the transition to Van Mossel will continue to see the business deliver exceptional customer experiences and a strong financial performance. 

“I would also like to put on record my sincere thanks to Porsche for the incredible journey we have enjoyed together and to Van Mossel for the professionalism and positive attitude they have shown throughout this transaction. I wish them all every success in the future.”

Peter Vardy Global reaffirmed its commitment to social impact. Over the past two years, employees have contributed more than 18,000 volunteering hours, supporting initiatives in youth education, homelessness, mental health and poverty. Funding from the group has enabled the charity partner, Gen+, to expand from 48 to 97 schools across 16 Scottish local authorities, reaching approximately 18,000 pupils.

The group said its long-standing purpose of selling to give would remain central as it pivots from retail operations towards investment and growth businesses across technology, fintech and mobility.
