Asia-Pacific regional director Paul Harris said it was decided in “mutual agreement” to move the dealership from the Gold Coast to Brisbane.

Once under the guidance of Peter Warren Automotive in the Glitter Strip, the luxury marque will join the LMM Holdings Pty Limited which also encompasses major brands like Brisbane BMW, Ferrari, Volvo and more.

“Brisbane’s robust economic development has resulted in it being a work, luxury and recreational hub for our owners,” Mr Harris said.

“We recognise that it is Australia’s fastest growing metropolitan city and is projected to expand over the next two decades.”

Dealer principal Rob Thomson said he was “delighted to be able to represent the pinnacle brand in the super-luxury segment”.

“With a changing product portfolio and an increasingly younger demographic, we foresee exciting times ahead for Rolls-Royce,” he said.

“We are committed to delivering only the highest standard of ownership services to customers in Queensland.”

In 2018, Rolls-Royce Motor Cars recorded the highest annual sales in the marquee’s 115-year history with 4,107 cars delivered to customers in over 50 counties.

Rolls-Royce Motor Cars Brisbane plans to open an interim showroom in the second quarter of this year, with customers being able to access the range and design their bespoke design using the latest configurator software.
