Testimonials

We have recently started using City Auction Group as a path to remarket our vehicles. The experience so far has been outstanding! All staff are friendly, polite, efficient and no task is ever too much to accommodate. I was blown away last week with the results that were achieved on the day of the sale. I look forward to a long and prosperous future working alongside City Auction Group and its wonderful team!

Lisa Moss
Hertz - Auction & Retail Manager

Our experience working with the City Auction Group has been a consistently positive one. During the last four years we have introduced a part exchange trade car auction policy which has been managed very successfully and resulted in enhanced financial returns.

We have found their knowledge of the market invaluable and it has led to increased profit per vehicle and more importantly a partnership that frees up time for our management and sales team.

The consistency of the appraisals has enabled us to have more confidence in our valuation of part ex vehicles and in return a higher financial payback.

We have only ever had a positive experience with every team member and they have proven to be extremely helpful when needed.

We look forward to continuing our successful partnership for the long term.

Adam Reid
Sales Manager, Jack Reid Cars

We have been working with City Auction Group for coming up on 2 years now.

They have helped make our trade car policy smooth and hassle free.

We simply submit a list of vehicles for auction, they are collected within 24 hours and sold our behalf at the next available auction.

Ive never had to bring an unsold car back from City Auction and the guys there have on a number of occasions went above and beyond to ensure our cars get sold.

We have had great experiences when purchasing from City Auction too. Fees are realistic and accurate descriptions give us confidence to buy online.

We look forward to dealing with City Auction Group for many years to come.

Oodle has been working with the City Auction Group for the past 6 months. Since partnering with the City Auction Group as our primary remarketing organisation we have received the best service to date, surpassing our expectations. Our initial auctions results saw a string of back to back 100% sold rates for our stock and greatly increased sale values. The City team are always on hand to resolve any issues we may have, the lines of communication have been phenomenal compared to previous partners which has directly impacted our sales rates, especially when deciding if to invest in elevating vehicles ready for sale. To summarise, I would have to say the key element in why our partnership works so well is because we feel our business is valued. As a result we have ultimate confidence in the City team from top to bottom to gain the best results on behalf of our business.

We have been remarketing vehicles at Belfast City Auctions and have found our experience very rewarding and have built a strong relationship with the key team members. With an office in England and Northern Ireland we have used some of the largest auction groups in England however the personal service provided by Belfast City Auctions is without question greater than we have experienced elsewhere.

their latest auction site at Rockingham near Corby in Northamptonshire. It’s clear that they are very focused on ensuring that both buyer and vendor have a good experience. They have a clear desire to ensure the maximum number of units going through the auctions there, along with the largest number of buyers represented. The team of support staff and event organisers at CAG work diligently on communicating before, during and after each event and we have seen positive results in terms of both conversion rate and sales performance against industry benchmarks.

We started using City Auction Group in 2010 which has proved to be a decision well taken. We have found them to be a most professional vehicle remarketing company which is reflected by the financial results achieved but also in the methods, staff and locations. To find a business partner you can deal with in full trust can be difficult in this day and age but Contraflex would highly recommend City Auction Group to be one of a few.
