Our story
Hugh Weidinger started selling Jaguars in Hempstead in 1938. Jaguar's own newsroom later called the family store the oldest Jaguar retailer in the United States. His son Jake ran the business for decades, and his grandson Jack, who joined in 1996, leads the group today.
The goal hasn't changed: carry the right cars, train people well, and treat customers the way we would want to be treated.
The group added two stores in 2025. GMC Bedford Hills, formerly Vail Buick GMC, joined in May, and Cadillac Mount Kisco opened in November.
