metcars 397 Posted June 10, 2017 Quick question for any BCA blackbushe regulars. Do they still have the ex mod sales? I can't find any clues on the website. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LISL 7 Posted June 10, 2017 Commercials or regular mate? Haven't seen any cars going through in a while although I may be wrong. Pretty sure Manheim do them? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the old days they used to have a large sale including cars and landrovers etc. Blackbushe isn't one of my haunts any more. They used to show up on the catalogue. Maybe MOD are selling direct now or leasing/hiring? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Phil H 124 Posted June 10, 2017 all used to be leased from Lex, but now bca own the remarketing side of Lex it wouldn't surprise me if they re register them and put them through as Lex vehicles so they make better money as a lot of buyers were put off buying them due to the hassle.

I remember there's that form you had to fill in, a right PITA in my opinion. I didn't know BCA bought Lex remarketing but you learn something new. A friend of the enemy's was telling me how she got her car which was on a BMW lease collected the other day (end of life). Had a quick butchers at the paperwork and it was all on BCA letterheads. They picked up the car and shipped it to Belle Vue, so will go straight through to auction. Saves a lot of time when you think about it, but also makes you realise that BCA is becoming the AT of the remarketing World.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BCA now run the VW remarketing for them, sell all the 6 month to a year ex management and hire cars to the dealers, have done it for the last 6 months or so. Think they do it for Audi too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SAPFO 1 Posted June 11, 2017 Castle Bromwich Birmingham had hundreds of MOD last week. And there is always Lex on when I've gone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sparky 274 Posted June 12, 2017 Used to do really well with these back in the day. You could load up a transporter of Astra Merit Estates from Belle Vue in british racing pink for under 10k, and because they had the Isuzo engine they never went wrong. Happy, simple days......
