Car auctions are a method of selling new and used cars based on the auction system. Car auctions can be found in most nations but are often unused by most people since in most nations (ie United States) car auctions are exclusive to used car dealers. In countries like Japan and the UK, car auctions are well known and occasionally used indirectly by residents.

The majority of the vehicles entered into auction in the UK are ex-company fleet vehicle and as such usually have a good service history and have been well kept. Car dealer groups also take advantage of car auctions in order to sell on any excess stock whilst smaller, local dealers use them to fill spaces in their forecourts. Auctions in the UK are also used by banks, local and central government, private sellers and car dealerships. By attending car auctions in the UK you get access to a unique range of vehicles: -direct from the manufacturer -later model cars -cars available from ex-fleet, finance and lease companies -part-exchange cars from dealers -budget and family models including mpv’s -specialist marques, top car and other prestige car auctions.
