Online vehicle remarketing company Adesa UK has partnered with QA Vehicle Solutions in order to expand its defleeting operations into Scotland.

QA Vehicle Solutions, which has a five-acre site near Edinburgh, will join Adesa UK’s network of defleet centres in Newbury and Doncaster.

“Scotland is a major focus for our expanding remarketing operations and this strategic partnership enables us to offer our growing number of fleet customers a full repair and refurbishment service for vehicles being sold on our digital platform,” said Jonathan Holland, managing director of Adesa UK.

QA Vehicle Solutions was voted the 2020 Car Repairer of the Year by the British Bodyshop Awards and has established itself as one of Scotland’s leading fleet repairers

Its site includes a fully equipped 35,000 sq ft workshop facility with three spray booths.

In addition to repairs and refurbishment, the QA site will also be used for storage, with defleeted vehicles able to undergo digital inspections using Adesa’s AI-based Intelligent Vehicle Inspection (IVI) service.

The new partnership is part of Adesa UK’s ongoing expansion, which will see the rollout of more defleeting centres across the UK.
