Maybe the internal fixtures and fittings are up for sale from the old premises, normally at auction. The new Ducati spec store Refurb would be no less than £250,000. You could possibly buy the old one at auction for £20,000???? . What I’m trying to say is moving down the road a bit and buying the old shop fit for a song is a good bit of business.
There is a big chance much of the internal fittings belonged to Ducati Glasgow and not the owners of the building.
Good point. If they can extract them and still usable enough. Sounds like the site is car dealership heaven and large enough for a decent car site.
Once fittings are screwed/bolted down aren't they classed as fixtures and fittings and therefore owned by the buildings owners? Though the deal to buy the company out of receivership could have included the fixtures and fittings.
Not sure that is the case if ownership can be proven and I think administrators would take a different view if they thought they had some value. Since the buildings is likely to end up back in the hands of the bank/finance company, i would guess they would want it as stripped out of fixtures as possible.
as long as parts dont fall off, fluids are refilled the service department doesent atempt to fool you, warranties are honered and yer not left feeling like a total munchausin after several years then a dealership could be working out of a brick outhouse for all i care.
