What is a Motor Auction?

To put it simply, a motor auction acts as an agency between someone who wants to sell a car, and someone who wishes to buy it. MotorAuctions allow companies, organisations, utilities of all sizes and those in the car trade itself to quickly and efficiently dispose of their surplus vehicles. Every week of the year, thousands of cars, of all makes, models and sizes are put under the auctioneers hammer the length and breadth of the British Isles. It has been estimated that around 80% of all cars sold new in this country will pass through an auction at some point in their first four years on the road.

Sensible course of action…
A large proportion of the cars which go through auction each year come direct from the major companies which use huge fleets of vehicles to keep their employees on the roads. Leasing and rental companies make a significant contribution, as well as the vehicle manufacturers themselves. These companies employ people whose job it is to efficiently dispose of their vehicle fleets, once they have reached a certain age or a specified mileage. Motor auctions are their only sensible course of action.
