Overview
Pendragon started off as a pet project, but over the years has transformed into a beast of a company through successive gobbling. The UK's largest auto dealer, Pendragon sells about 30 auto brands, including BMW, Ferrari, and Jaguar, at about 400 dealerships in the UK, US, and Germany. Pendragon is also the sole distributor of Cadillac and Corvette in the UK and the largest franchised Harley-Davidson dealer outside of the US. Pendragon acquired Evans Halshaw (auto and commercial truck franchises) in 1999, CD Bramall in 2004 (133 franchises), and Reg Vardy in 2006. The company was demerged from former parent Williams plc in 1989 and since then was floated as a publicly-traded stock.
