Manheim Auctions is to open a new auction centre at Bruntingthorpe in Leicestershire, increasing its remarketing network to 21 centres across the UK.

The auctioneer said that the first sale at the new centre will be held in January, and that the auction programme will expand during 2010 with regular car, van and truck sales on behalf of manufacturers and leasing companies.

Manheim Auctions and Remarketing’s MD Mike Pilkington said: “We are already in advanced discussions with several major fleet and manufacturer vendors who are keen to take advantage of the obvious attractions to both buyers and vendors of the location and facilities available.”

“I believe that this new Midlands super-centre will be of particular interest to buyers and will enable us to set new standards in vehicle remarketing,” he added.
