Marriott Motorcycles has taken to Facebook to thank fire teams for saving their Birkenhead business.
Fire broke out shortly before 8.30pm on 6 February and destroyed the workshop.
Firefighters wearing breathing apparatus broke into the building using an angle grinder and were able to prevent the flames spreading to an area housing new, used and classic motorcycles. Marriott has franchises for Suzuki and Kawasaki and also retails Moto Morini, Mutt and Zontes.
In a Facebook post, the dealership wrote: “Thanks to everyone who helped us try and get things together over the last 24 hours. Massive shout out to the fire brigade who worked for hours to save our business. All the staff are still shocked at the extent of the damage to our workshops. Please bear with us in these hard times whilst we try to put things back on track.”
Two days after the fire, Marriott reported that “after some tireless cleaning our doors are now open for the sales and parts”.
