Trade Customers

We are proud to sell cars for many of the South East’s leading dealerships

Not been to our auctions for a while? I bet you'd be amazed by the quality of vehicles being sold and the buzz generated by the live auction.

Tailored Services

All our main dealership clients benefit from a tailored service that is designed to meet their specific needs and delivers against their key objectives.

Our service focuses on fast collection, fast sale and fast payout but it is how we do this that our customers talk about most. They say that we are professional and friendly and that unlike most of our competitors they can pick up the phone to somebody they know on a personal level and get a knowledgeable and helpful response.

The first step is for us to understand and respond to your specific requirements and ways of working. We would be pleased to work with you to develop a solution which meets your specific requirements.

Why not get in touch so that we can start a conversation about how we can help you to improve the effectiveness of your vehicle remarketing.

Our Welcome Offer

It is often difficult to gauge the pros and cons of a new supplier without experiencing their service first-hand.

Several of our best customers started off by just trying us out with a few vehicles.

We understand this so we make it really easy for you to try us out with a few vehicles to see if we are the right partner for you. Not only will you get the opportunity to try our service and attend one of our auctions but we will also include some valuable incentives for your dealership and for you.

These include collecting and selling your first 5 cars completely free of charge.
