● There is value to be found with your favourite passenger and light commercial vehicle brands at Park Village Auctions’ upcoming vehicle auction on February 14.

That’s the word from PVA’s head auctioneer, Clive Lazarus, who says that PVA has been commission­ed to sell a large assortment of genuine bank-repossesse­d vehicles ranging from basic hatchbacks, student orientated cars, bakkies and workhorses to topof-the-range SUV’s and luxury sedans.

Popular makes and models which have featured at PVA’s Martindale auctions in the past include:

A 2013 Volkswagen Polo Vivo (76 764km) sold for R44 000;

A 2015 Renault Sandero Turbo (93 400km) sold for R45 000;

A 2013 Kia K 2700 Workhorse SE

(90 250km) sold for R97 000;

A 2014 Ford Fiesta (73 732km) sold for R112 500;

A 2013 BMW 320 I (75 572km) sold for

R148 000;

A 2015 Chevrolet Utility 1.4 Sport

(34 142km) sold for R1 540 000; and

A 2017 Audi A3 TFSI (6 399km) sold for R260 000.

Lazarus said: “It is clear that South Africans foremost are on the hunt for affordabil­ity and reliabilit­y.

“Recent statistics from The National Associatio­n of Automobile Manufactur­ers of South Africa [Naamsa] revealed a 1.8% growth in year-to-date sales, indicating that consumer confidence has improved thanks to a stronger rand and promising inflation rates.

“An uptick in new vehicle sales bodes well for consumers looking to acquire quality second-hand vehicles as stocks [that were previously dwindling] are replenishe­d.

“Young students, for example, seeking to get their hands on their first car would do well to take a look at what Martindale has to offer.

“The majority of the vehicles on our floor are newer models, in good condition with relatively low mileage.

The auction will take place at PVA’s Bank Repossessi­on Centre located on 221 Main Road, Martindale, on Wednesday February 14 starting at 10.30am.

Viewing will take place at the same location the day before from 9am to 4pm.
