Cars Direct is to stage an internet auction on January 23 exclusively for cabriolet and convertible cars.

The trade auction will be open to members of the public for the first time following the company’s decision to open up its on-line auction facility to consumers.

The idea behind the special auction is to get customers thinking about the ‘lazy hazy days of summer’ and will include cars from Saab, Audi, Volvo and Mercedes-Benz. All are ex-company and fleet cars with full service history and specification. Pictures can be viewed on www.cars-direct.ltd.uk.
