Driven by Family, Powered by People
We are a family business to our core. Founded in 1969 as a Volvo retailer, to this present day we are still owned and run by the Chapman family and we are continually recognised as Volvo Retailer of the Year, the latest being in 2022.
In February 2023 we acquired two further dealerships in Bradford and Huddersfield and have recently relocated to a brand new state of the art dealership on Canal Road, Bradford BD1 4SR.
At our centre is our people. We couldn’t consistently achieve outstanding customer service without our extremely loyal, and dedicated workforce of over 300 people. They really are the beating heart of the business which keeps us ahead of our competitors and at the forefront of our customer's minds when they think of Volvo.
Built on Trust, Driven by Excellence
A Legacy of Trust
Trust is at the heart of everything we do. It's the reason so many of our customers return year after year. They know they can rely on us for honest advice, genuine care, and a no-pressure experience that puts their needs first.
Customer-Centred Expertise
Our experienced sales and service teams are here to match the right car to the right person. We treat every customer as an individual, delivering personal service and expert guidance throughout their motoring journey.
Future-Ready Facilities
With continued investment in our facilities, systems, and skilled technicians, we’re equipped to service everything from traditional engines to cutting-edge electric vehicles—embracing the future of driving with confidence and enthusiasm.
Our Journey, our promise
At Ray Chapman Motors, we believe in building lasting relationships—with our customers, our team, and our communities. Our journey from a single family-run dealership to a multi-site Volvo specialist has always been guided by one simple principle: do the right thing, every time. As we continue to grow and embrace the future of driving, we remain committed to delivering the same trusted, personal service that’s defined us since 1969.
