AutoQuake engineer assessing vehicle prior to listing AutoQuake Ltd has announced that it has signed agreements with three major leasing companies to pilot selling ex-fleet cars directly to consumers through eBay. Each of the fleet companies disposes of up to 10,000 cars each per year.

These stringently maintained and rigorously checked vehicles usually only available to motor trade buyers offer car buyers a unique opportunity to secure a fantastic car at 20-30% lower prices than on a dealer forecourt.

The cars have been HPI verified and have undergone extensive and meticulous visual and mechanical checks at AutoQuake’s processing centres. Comprehensive listings include 70 pictures and copies of relevant documentation to reassure the customer. AutoQuake can deliver vehicles anywhere in the UK and can also arrange optional warranties.

"AutoQuake is the new way to buy cars. We allow people to buy cars conveniently from their own home using their computer. By cutting out the middle man we can offer these cars at very low prices and with our unrivalled listings consumers know exactly what they are buying. So far we have sold over 2,000 vehicles and our 99.8% positive eBay feedback speaks for itself," said Jeanette Moskovits, AutoQuake founder and CEO.

eBay is simple to use, it is safe and secure and has strict controls in place to reassure customers. First time users create a unique user ID and password and then follow the simple clear directions to navigate the site. Customers can then place bids for items they wish to purchase. Once a customer has been successful bidding for an item they are contacted by the seller to organise payment and delivery.

Many customers have travelled from as far as Scotland and Ireland to pick up their cars from AutoQuake and have been delighted with the overall buying experience as is reflected in their eBay feedback. Says eBay user canals46, buyer of a Mitsubishi Galant: "Great car, as described, lovely. Honest people to deal with. Highly recommended". Adds eBay user andyloos "Second time I’m buying from AutoQuake. Smooth transaction and helpful staff."
