BCA has bought online remarketing specialist JTK Automotive.

The auction group has also revealed plans to open a new 20-acre auction and remarketing site at Perry Barr, Birmingham.

JTK Automotive has been operating for over six years offering a range of remarketing products and services including inventory and channel management, affinity sales, e-auctions, wholesale and dealer exchange.

Existing key clients of JTK include Citroen, Fiat/Alfa-Romeo, BMW Group, and Toyota Financial Services.

The Perry Barr facility will be located between J6 and J7 of the M6 and planning permission is in place for auction use.

The site will be developed as a multi-channel remarketing and logistics facility over a 12 to 15 month build project due for completion in Q3 2010.

Around 200 jobs will be created at the centre, ranging from technical, operational and administrative roles, to inspectors and vehicle preparation staff.
