ABOUT STRUANS

Struans are a local family business committed to providing the best service and value for our customers.

With branches in Dundee and Perth there is a great choice of new cars from Peugeot and Mazda - all top manufacturers with great reputations and each with their own personality.

Our range of used cars covers all makes including Volkswagen, Nissan, Citroen, Ford, Vauxhall and more, with the number of vehicles we offer increasing growing due to both our success and our determination to provide motorists in Tayside with more choice.

Since we started over 40 years ago Struan Motors have grown from humble beginnings to become one of the most popular places for people in Tayside, and much further afield, to choose to purchase their new car.

Although Struan Motors now offer a choice of 3 new car franchises, a large stock of used cars, a fast-fit centre, vehicle rental and a full after-sales service, it was not always like that

Struan Robertson, as a time served mechanic with an excellent reputation first branched out on his own in 1974 with a small holding at Kinfauns just outside Perth, where he specialised in the servicing and repair of Volkswagens.

However, as his reputation spread, it soon became clear that the business needed to expand in order to meet customer demand and so his brother John joined him as they moved into larger premises in South William Street in Perth in 1977.

Struan Motors popularity flourished, helped by the convenience of this new city centre location, and soon adjacent property was taken over to help cope with demand and allow for the arrival of the Mazda franchise which was awarded way back in 1981, making Struans one of the longest established Mazda dealers in Scotland!

The next big step was when, due to their growing reputation for customer service, Toyota chose Struans to represent them in Perth, which once again required more room, and a showroom in nearby Victoria Street was created.

Some of these city centre properties still bear the Struan name to this day as they are where our tyres and all-makes servicing branch is based.

Our landmark Struans Motor Village in Crieff Road, Perth first started off in 1987 when our Toyota showroom moved there, to what had been a greenfield site.

Ever since then there has been continual development with the opening of our Peugeot showroom in 1989, and our new Mazda showroom in 1995. The site has also seen a large and spacious used car display area created, with a large customer car parking area rarely seen at dealerships with landscaping to give a relaxed atmosphere..

Over the years Struans had developed a loyal customer base from all over the country, but particularly in Dundee. This led us develop a prominent site which we initially used as a Toyota dealership and is now a used car specialist Autocentre dealing with all makes of vehicles.

Now that we have grown to have 2 great centres in Perth and Dundee we are now focused on ensuring our customers recieve the best possible experience at Struans.
