At 12pm on Saturday 28th November 2020 Copart Automotive will be debuting a new, bespoke auction featuring higher quality graded used vehicles from across their UK automotive sellers.
This follows the successful launch of the Copart vehicle grading system and not only provides an additional opportunity for our customers to sell their used vehicles to a dedicated buyer base, but presents our buyers with a dedicated auction for these types of vehicles.
An awesome showcase for used and graded vehicles
With thousands of Copart’s buyers actively seeking lower end used vehicles, the delivery of a dedicated auction on a Saturday offers an even greater opportunity to advertise and sell related vehicle stock.
The auction will feature hundreds of selected vehicles from a range of key automotive partners, many of which have undergone a 50-point inspection by our highly experienced team of qualified engineers, and as a result of they are assigned a vehicle condition grade.
The assignment of a grade provides our Members with a more transparent buying experience and can be used to emphasise the true value of each vehicle, increasing its potential value in auction.
Even easier to buy
The launch of the dedicated auction will also benefit our Members, many of which actively seek to purchase higher quality, used vehicles. Since the auction will present only these vehicles, Members will be able to focus on reviewing and bidding in a single auction, regardless of the vehicles location across the UK.
These buyers have had the opportunity to view and bid on these vehicles in the days leading up to the live auction, and as ever our team has kept them informed through a variety of communication channels to help them fully prepare.
Early research showed that this was a high interest topic and subsequently we received a huge amount of pre-auction registrations from Copart Members in the build-up to the launch.
Mark Godfrey, Director of Copart’s Automotive division, said:
“We continually strive to identify ways we can add real value to both our Members and Sellers, and this new and dedicated auction is a great illustration of Copart’s constant desire to innovate.
Our marketing and account teams have identified yet another way to connect our valued buyer base with the vehicles they want, and our customers with willing and active buyers. With the positive reaction we’ve received so far it clearly demonstrates that we are helping both ends of the remarketing chain.”
