A new version of CAP for Windows is released in September, with new features designed to boost dealer profitability.

CAP for Windows version 5 offers dealers a range of powerful purchase, part-exchange and stock management tools including:

  • dealer inventory management features
  • vehicle appraisal functionality
  • trade value trend analysis
  • customisable price displays
  • monthly updated id data for accurate vehicle identification

    CAP for Windows was launched in 1996.

    CAP managing director Rupert Keane said: "While the data behind CAP Windows has steadily become more comprehensive, robust and reliable in recent years we wanted the platform itself to deliver increased value to the dealer. So we listened to our customers and built some really powerful new features into version 5. We also changed some of the features they believed we could improve. For example, dealers told us the condition appraisal function was key to maximising the profitability from part-exchanges .They wanted the appraisal function made easier to access and use, so we did that."
