17th July 2014
The Next Gear Capital sponsored Beach Fleet event today was a resounding success at the City Auction Group Belfast with a super turnout of buyers both physically and online.
MD Michael Tomalin comments 'the whole event went extremely well with the introduction of Next Gear Capital as our vehicle stocking partner signing up some dealers at the event, a record number of vehicles sold on the day and the option for Live online buyers to purchase vehicles from their smartphone or tablet. For the July holiday fortnight the turnout was unbelievable'.
CEO Raymond Hill stated 'today was very special for lots of reasons. The team worked tirelessly to get this major event over the line, the buyers attended in their droves, the vendors supported us with nigh on 400 vehicles and our MD returned to the rostrum auctioneering after a long time on the sidelines which is fantastic news for our group!'.
Jim Hannah, Ogilvie Fleet stated 'very impressive result, great service and quite obviously lots of hard work from the team. Furthermore we have signed up for the Corporate Fleet Auction at the NI Fleet Awards and Titanic Motor Show 2015 and we are delighted to commit a large entry of quality contract hire vehicles at this specialist event'.
David Dockerty, Santander Consumer Finance commented 'super sale with a fantastic result. Absolutely delighted. We partner the City Auction Group in Northern Ireland and will be supporting them for the long term including the Titanic Fleet Event coming soon'.
