Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions has appointed Shoreham Vehicle Auctions (SVA) as its latest car and van remarketing partner.

SVA will be selling ex-Hitachi cars at its weekly fleet sale on a Thursday and its fortnightly light commercial vehicle sale which it runs every other Tuesday.

During a trial period, SVA delivered a 100% conversion rate for Hitachi on both cars and vans.

'SVA has gained a strong reputation for delivering excellent service levels for both its buyers and vendors which translates into healthy bids and high conversion rates. They are particularly strong in the commercial vehicle sector which is another reason for choosing them as a remarketing partner,' said Hitachi Capital's remarketing manager Roger Holder.

'Hitachi has a great mix of ex-fleet used cars and vans coming into the auction which our buyers have already responded well to. We look forward to establishing a strong buyer following for Hitachi product over the coming months,' explained Alex Wright, SVA's managing director.
