SMA Vehicle Remarketing has opened its new Birmingham auction centre, close to junction 10 of the M6.

The new centre, covering 8.5 acres, includes a dual rostrum hall, with all-round monitors offering real-time information on vehicles as they move through the auction.

Facilities on site in the purpose-built auction centre include a heated dual lane auction hall, a customer lounge area, meeting facilities, cafe and Wi-Fi throughout.

A technical services centre on-site is staffed with technicians to carry out body and mechanical work with a spray booth and refurbishment facilities for work pre or post sale, for vendors or buyers.

The first auction takes place today.
