Auctions | Drive away in the wheels of your dreams at year-end vehicle bonanza

Park Village Auctions (PVA) will host a national series of five high-calibre webcast auctions throughout December, featuring hundreds of light commercial and passenger vehicles ranging from essential hatchbacks to premium SUVs and luxury sedans, sourced from major financial institutions and various business entities.

“The sales present a favourable opportunity for consumers and businesses to acquire quality late-model vehicles at below dealer prices as sellers look to finalise their books and clear inventory,” says PVA’s Clive Lazarus. “This series appeals to a broad audience, including families needing reliable secondary vehicles, students requiring cost-effective transport, and savvy business buyers.”

The inventory comprises genuine repossessed vehicles from major financial institutions, including Absa Bank, Standard Bank and BMW Financial Services, as well as assets stemming from liquidation and business rescue matters. These vehicles are often termed “near new” due to their late-model production year, low mileage and generally sound condition.

Given the persistent pressure on household budgets from the high cost of living and rising fuel prices, the opportunity to acquire dependable transport at a saving is particularly compelling. Lazarus reports that auction prices for repossessed vehicles can often achieve 15%-20% less than the established retail or trade value, translating into significant financial relief for bidders.

The auctions are all webcast-only events, meaning there is no onsite bidding, commencing at 10 am.
