Re-locatable interim building
01 June 2016
Temporary building specialist Smart-Space has provided Marshall Motor Group with a commercial vehicle showroom in the form of a re-locatable interim building at its Ford Commercial Vehicles site in Cambridge.

Marshall is planning to redevelop its Ford Commercial Vehicles showroom in the next few years. In the meantime, it wished to upgrade its current facilities and needed a cost-effective interim solution that had the look, feel and properties of a permanent building without the associated costs.
Smart-Space provided a 15 x 25m bespoke semi-permanent building. The structure features windows, lighting, office space, a high roof and bi-fold doors to enable easy vehicle access. Heat loss concerns were alleviated by the 40mm insulated steel roof and 40mm steel wall cladding.
Marshall chose Smart-Space for its durability, flexibility, variety of product options, and because it needed a bespoke solution delivered within a tight timescale. The entire project took just a week to complete from start to finish.
“Smart-Space provided an outstanding service and an excellent product that met our requirements, and was virtually indistinguishable from a bricks and mortar showroom,” said Terry Moore, projects facility manager at Marshall Motor Group.
“I wouldn’t hesitate in using them again as the team provided an exceptional service with excellent communication throughout the build and a quick turnaround. Their expertise and knowledge shone through during the project and I couldn’t have asked for better service.”
