SLM Group is excited to announce the official opening of Alpine Store Weybridge: the newest addition to the family-run business and a milestone moment for automotive enthusiasts across Surrey and beyond.

Bringing over 70 years of French motorsport heritage to a brand-new showroom, Alpine continues to redefine what it means to drive with passion.

The brand is known for its lightweight performance, racing pedigree and distinctive design, having always stood at the cutting edge of innovation. Alpine Store Weybridge showcases the all-electric, all-new A290, recently crowned 2025’s Car of the Year. The range also includes the iconic A110, a modern classic, and will soon welcome the eagerly awaited A390 SUV, which is now available to pre-order.

Family-owned since 1960, SLM Group has grown from a single garage into a network of dealerships and service centres across East Sussex, East Anglia, Surrey, Hampshire, and Essex.

In 2023, SLM Group further strengthened its reach by acquiring SMC Motor Group, bringing its total workforce to over 350 people. This expansion into Weybridge, Aldershot and Woking welcomed Renault, Dacia, CUPRA, and SEAT to the group’s portfolio.

Alpine now joins the Weybridge showroom alongside Renault and Dacia. Both SLM Group and SMC Motor Group have a strong community heritage, and this growth lets them combine a progressive automotive vision with their enduring values of quality, care, and integrity.

Jason Barlow, Director at SLM Group, said: “The launch of Alpine into the group is an exciting new chapter for our Weybridge centre. Alpine delivers sports car innovation and aligns perfectly with our plans for the future. The teams are all fully trained and eager to show customers what makes Alpine special.”

At Alpine Store Weybridge, the goal is simple: to provide an exceptional level of service to match the exceptional vehicles. Whether you’re a long-standing Alpine fan or just discovering the thrill of the marque, the dedicated team is there to offer a tailored, premium experience every step of the way.
