  • ECONOMICS

    A car is one of the most expensivepurchases a person makes andtodays showroom has animportant role in helpingcustomers make that decision.In an increasingly segmented

    market, an outlet needs to cater for a range of clients and their needs.

    In todays brand-driven society,cars and lifestyle overlap and thesales environment should reflect

    the customers preferences.The scope of a car dealership

    scheme is not limited to sales.After-sales service is an elementof the business model so aservice reception and a parts and

    workshop facility are oftenlocated on a showroom site.

    At prestige outlets, customersmay have access to refreshments,wireless or internet connectionsin coffee bars or lounges.

    Car showrooms need to be located on highlyvisible sites with good access to maintransport routes and an eye-catchingfrontage. Display of the car range isparamount and the layout and orientation of sites and display areas will have a major impact on sales.

    These considerations affect environmentalcontrol strategies, as not all buildings can beoriented to mitigate solar gain and heavilytinted solar control glass is not generallyconsidered for the main facade.

    As part of the fit-out, additional space may be given over to financial servicescompanies providing loans, insurance and similar products.

    The current trend is for a double-heightdisplay area with the main frontage in full-height glazing, making a design statementand providing high visibility. Glazing over 3mhigh does not qualify as a shopfront, whichmeans the solar gain component must beincluded in Part L calculations. Furthermore,double-glazed units must be specified, ratherthan the clear single-glazing typical ofshopfronts.

    The building services standard is also high.Comfort cooling in customer areas is requiredto control solar gains in highly glazed areas.Showroom lighting which reinforces brandidentity, displays cars in the best light andcreates the right mood is a useful sales tool.

    Many materials used in showroomconstruction, including cement, steel frame,

    metal and glazed cladding and some buildingservices components, have been subject tovolatile price changes in the past two years,introducing added risk for developers andcontractors.

    A further area of uncertainty relates to the introduction of Part L in 2006. For mostmotor dealerships, sustainability is not a majorbusiness driver, but delivering buildings thatmeet manufacturers design codes could be achallenge. Although occupancy-related coolingloads are not a major issue, loads related tosolar gain are.

    Measures taken to mitigate loads, energyuse and carbon emissions include: Use of extended eaves, brise-soleil andcanopies to reduce solar gain, particularly on the main facade Use of rooflights to provide basic levels ofillumination without adding to cooling loads Enhanced insulation for solid cladding and roofs Lighting control Offsetting relatively high carbon emissionsin a mechanically cooled showroom across thetotal floor area of the scheme, which includesareas such as workshops with lower loads.

    The European Block Exemption rules onfranchises influence the manufacturersspecification of finishes in such businesses.Finishes are typically of high quality, often with a stone tile floor and wall liningsystem. The showroom may also have abalcony or gallery.

    Corporate branding by manufacturers isleading to a trend for standardised fixtures,fittings and equipment specified to meetcorporate identity standards that turnshowrooms into bespoke retail boxes. Thechoice of materials, such as timber flooring in lieu of tiling, is another way for amanufacturer to reinforce its visual image.

    With the value of the stock on display,security is a major concern. Showrooms have comprehensive access control, alarmsand sophisticated CCTV. CCTV is locatedinternally and externally and uses infrared for night-time vision. It may feature movement tracking and link back to remotemonitoring centres. Some systems featureloudspeaker systems used by remotemonitoring teams to warn intruders that they are on camera.

    Discreet physical security measures such as forecourt bollards and perimeter fencingare also necessary to prevent unauthorisedvehicle entry and exit, but must not interferewith customer views of vehicles on display.

    The external works account for aconsiderable proportion of overallexpenditure. Forecourt sales and parking for various repairs and servicing functions arethe main cost drivers. The estimate must alsofactor in the costs of bypass separators andother effluent treatment solutions to minimisethe risk of any pollutant run-off, as well asexpenditure on branding, such as externallighting, flag posts and brand totems.

    Those temples to the automobile can be lavish enterprises, with double-height glazing, blazinglights and costly stone floors. And thats before you even get into the realms of internet cafes and branded clothing. Maxwell Wilkes of Davis Langdon offers an unbeatable all-in price

  • For most developers of carshowrooms, design and build is the preferred procurementroute.

    It is ideally suited because the typical showroom is neitherlarge nor complex. Employersrequirements can be issued at a relatively late stage of design,as far as RIBA Stage E, and willincorporate prescriptive designsand specifications for completionby the contractors team.

    Design and build offers clientsthat are not professionaldevelopers the opportunity to usea manufacturers pre-determinedcorporate specifications andfinishes, while transferringdesign, commercial and

    construction risk to thecontractor, obtaining costcertainty with a consistentquality finish.

    For this, the client needs to use amended contracts that placeresponsibility for both theemployers requirements andcontractors proposals with the contractor.

    Development of car showroomscan be undertaken by a numberof parties. The options availableare generally either freehold orsale and leaseback: Freehold: the financing of theshowroom is undertaken by thedealership, which then keeps it as an investment. This is thetraditional approach.

    Sale and leaseback: thedealership develops and thensells the showroom andassociated assets to a financialinstitution, leasing it back for a specified period of time.This enables the dealership to release the capital tied up in the development andconcentrate on motor retailrather than on its property portfolio. The manufacturer: Theopportunity to develop issometimes determined by themanufacturer. Some supportdealerships by providinginformation regarding preferredsites, and give potential salesexpectations for the area. In some

    cases, manufacturers prefer toact as their own developer,acquiring and developing a siteand then either renting it to thedealership or selling it into theinvestment market.

    Showrooms are seen as secureinvestments, although mostmanufacturers offer franchisesfor five years rather than atypical building lease term of 15 years.

    Dealerships obviously makestrenuous efforts to retainappropriate franchises,maintaining their facilities to a high standard and usuallyupgrading the fit-out every fiveyears alongside the renewal ofthe franchise.

  • 04 New dealership trends

    The cost model is based on a multi-franchisedealership at the higher end of the market. It comprises a new building subdivided into two double-height franchise displayshowrooms of 400m2 each, with additionaloffice and ancillary space giving a grossinternal floor area of 1,340m2.

    The development is built on a brownfield site,which has previously been cleared.

    The building has a reinforced in-situ concreteground-bearing slab, a steel frame with

    reinforced concrete pads, a full-height glazedfront, aluminium cladding on the side walls and aluminium standing seam roofing. Eachshowroom has separate entrance doors forcustomers and vehicles.

    There is full comfort cooling in all areas and the cost of fitting out this and the displaylighting is included. The external works consistof car parking, forecourt display area,landscaping and drainage.

    The unit rates are derived from competitive

    design-and-build tenders and are current at the first quarter of 2007, based on a South-east location. The building-only cost is1,221/m2.

    The cost excludes franchise specified work,enabling works, demolitions, professional fees and VAT. Design fees are typically in the region of 12%.

    Unit rates should be adjusted for thelocation, site conditions, programme andprocurement route.

    05 Planning

    It can be difficult to obtainplanning permission for cardealerships. The Planning Portalguidance rulings often lead to the development of clusters ofshowrooms. The main concerns

    when applying for planning are: Traffic movement. This peaks atthe start and end of the day, asvehicles are dropped off forservicing and delivery Location. The need to be highly

    visible on major transport routesor close to town may mean theproposed site is not in the correctlocal planning zones The desire for the forecourts tobe illuminated for as long as

    possible, especially relevant insuburban locations Adequate drainage facilitieswith the need for a trade effluentlicence, interceptors and treatingwaste products off site.

    Changes to the European BlockExemption law, which governshow franchises are held andmanaged, has facilitated thegrowth in multi-franchising within a single dealership. Thesearrangements enable consumersto compare differentmanufacturers models on a single site.

    The dealership tends to locatethe franchises in either co-located or adjacentshowrooms. This means the shellconstruction must be adaptableto the different specificationsdemanded by the manufacturers.

    As a result, the size of somedealerships has increased up to a floor area of 3,000m2. A scheme of this size willaccommodate multiple franchisesand extensive workshops, tyre bays and so on.

    An alternative approach has

    been the use of boutique sites.These are small units positioned in city-centre retail sites or leisuredevelopments. Matching thelocation, the customer profile andthe correct brand of car are vitalfor success, off-setting highrental levels and developmentcosts against the opportunity totarget specific clients. Thesedevelopments sometimes exploitthe concept of coffee bars andbranded clothing ranges found on larger sites.

    Not content with just selling acar, warranty and road tax,manufacturers and dealershipsare beginning to adopt theconcept of experiential retailing.Land Rover has established an adventure zone next toBluewater Park where customerscan purchase branded clothing, off-road adventure holidays andoff-road experiences.

    This showroom is as glamorous and high-spec as the Maseratis it houses

    Capital Allowances Tax Reliefs

    RemediationIn any motor retail construction project there will be a number of areas in which cost savings can be generated through the availability of tax reliefs. To start with, where an existing building is acquired, or it is a re-use of previously developed land, there may be remediation reliefs to be claimed that contribute towards the clean up cost of any contamination. The value is calculated as 150 per-cent of the total cost of the remediation and all associated costs and can, therefore, become a valuable turn-key to a site.

    Fixed Plant and MachineryIn the construction of a motor retail premises there will be elements of the build cost which qualify for fixed plant and machinery allowances. These are generally the systems which form part of the fit-out cost, such as heating, hot water, fire alarms, toilets and potentially the display fittings related to the showroom area and can add up to a significant amount of tax relief. For the 2007-8 financial year, small and medium enterprises will benefit from 50 per-cent and 40 per-cent first year allowances respectively, however, there has been considerable change in the 2007 Budget and it appears there are advantages to claims made before the system changes in April 2008. Any dealership group with either unanalysed past expenditure from previous years, or new projects that will complete this year, will benefit from preparing any potential claims before that time.

    SustainabilityOne effect of the coming changes in plant and machinery allowances is to emphasise the benefits of Enhanced Capital Allowances. If qualifying elements of the plant and machinery are low carbon emission or low energy consuming, the rate of incentive is increased to a 100 per-cent first year allowance. Thus the entire cost, including installation, can be written off against tax in the year the expenditure is incurred. The requirement to specify approved equipment should form part of the M&E Consultants instructions. The full list of qualifying equipment can be accessed at www.ega.gov.uk.

    Pre-planning AllowancesWhere say, 25 per-cent of a build cost might be set against tax, to a 30 per-cent taxpayer this will represent a 7.5 per-cent cost saving over time. It is well worthwhile seeking input on allowances at design stage, so that allowances can be optimised and risks of any disqualification reduced. The true bottom line cost of the dealership can also be identified and this may provide valuable support for a viability analysis or funding proposal.
