James Vandermerwe James Vandermerwe
General Manager
Jaguar / Range Rover / Land Rover / Porsche of Chattanooga

I began preparing for a career in the automotive industry at the age of eight after driving my first luxury car. I have been associated with Mercedes Benz in sales and management for 21+ years, and with Mercedes of Knoxville since 2008.  I am very excited to join Jaguar/Land Rover/Porsche of Chattanooga as all three brands are known world wide for optimum performance and premium quality in their respective class. I will strive to create a world class experience before, during, and after the sale. I look forward to establishing new relationships, as well as building upon present relationships in the
Chattanooga area. I am a sports car enthusiast. I enjoy spending free time with my beautiful wife and three sons, as well as camping, hunting, fishing, and motor sports.

Wil Harrington Wil Harrington
Sales Consultant
Jaguar / Range Rover / Land Rover / Porsche of Chattanooga

I am relatively new to the Chattanooga area, but not to Land Rover.  I became acquainted with the brand back in 2004 with my first Range Rover and have been a fan ever since and still driving one today.  I have an excitement for the automobile industry and enjoy sharing that excitement with others.  We have 3 unmatched brands to offer and I have trained thoroughly on them and their competition to provide my customers with the most informed and painless car buying experience.  I am responsible for hosting all Land Rover Events for the dealership and have had the pleasure of not only seeing my customers happy about their purchase, but see them enjoy it and gain their friendship along the way.   In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, my fiance', Melia and our dogs and watching Georgia Football.  I am looking forward to meeting you and earning your business.

Receptionist
Jaguar / Land Rover / Porsche of Chattanogoa

Being born and raised in the suburbs of Atlanta, Georgia, I have always been familiar and fascinated with luxury cars.  As a teenager, my dream car was a black Range Rover Sport Supercharged, and coincidentally I am now fortunate enough to be a team member here at Jaguar, Land Rover, and Porsche of Chattanooga!  I hope to finally one day become a proud owner of a hand crafted, state of the art Range Rover Sport!  I am currently a student at Dalton State and am studying Marketing.  I hope to continue my career with Jaguar/Land Rover/Porsche upon graduating.  When I have free time I enjoy spending time with my fiancé and family, cooking, wakeboarding, and taking snowboarding trips to various destinations.  I am also the proud owner of a beautiful Doberman Pinscher! I am a huge sports fan and would attend every Atlanta Falcons, Georgia Tech, and Atlanta Braves game if possible!  I look forward to meeting and assisting you in your journey to purchasing a new or used car from one of our professional sales associates!
