Community Auto Market – the Easiest, Most Cost Effective and Safest Way to Buy and Sell Used Vehicles – to Launch in the UK



The UK used vehicle market is set to change forever from 14th April 2013, the launch date of Community Auto Market at Kempton Park Racecourse from 9.30am-4.30pm

London - Community Auto Market, the revolutionary way to buy and sell cars, vans and motorcycles, launches in the UK on Sunday 14th April 2013 at Kempton Park Racecourse, Middlesex from 9.30am-4.30pm.

The buying and selling system that Community Auto Market employs is well established in other countries where it has been successfully operating for the past 30 years. Community Auto Market is the first company to bring this highly efficient way to buy and sell vehicles to these shores.

On Sundays throughout the UK, mainly in large car parks of racecourses, Community Auto Market will allow sellers to display their vehicles for a one-off low-cost entrance fee. Buyers can then view these vehicles all day and make their purchase right then and there. There is no entrance fee for buyers.

The main reason for its success is its simplicity, doing away with middlemen such as dealers, classified ads and even second hand vehicle websites while, at the same time, providing a really easy way to buy or sell vehicles. 

Community Auto Market is revolutionary in its approach, primarily because it provides a safe public place where buyers and sellers can meet, as well as everything else needed to facilitate the sale.

For the buyer, each Community Auto Market event puts hundreds of privately owned vehicles on display which can be inspected and tested at leisure. All the essential paperwork can also be seen and buyers can talk, face to face, with sellers. A roving mechanic is also available to hire on site to check over vehicles as needed, and the AA or RAC will be there for instant membership sign up if required. Vehicle finance can be arranged through the Community Auto Market website with insurance links provided to secure policies by phone on Sundays. 

For the seller, Community Auto Market puts their vehicles in front of hundreds of potential buyers, all for the price of a £20 entrance fee. All they have to do is bring their vehicle’s paperwork with them, namely: Current HPI Check, V5C Document and Road Tax disc, Vehicle Insurance Document, Contact Details (utilities account) and receipts of maintenance / MOT work done.

“Not only will we put hundreds of buyers together with hundreds of sellers in a safe public place on Sundays all over the UK, but we will also provide what must be the easiest, most efficient and cost effective way to buy or sell a vehicle ever devised. No dealer fees, no photographs, no listings, no appointments and no rip-off scams. Just turn up… it’s as simple as that!” says Claire Lore, spokesperson for Community Auto Market.

Starting at Kempton Park Racecourse on 14th April, Community Auto Market will host events in many racecourse car parks on Sundays throughout the UK by the summer. The events taking place in April 2013 are:

Brighton House Wins Sustainable Business Award from Sussex Business Awards



Outstanding achievement by a Brighton-based guesthouse in reducing the impact of their business on the environment

Brighton, East Sussex, United Kingdom – Brighton House, the historic Regency Brighton guesthouse opposite Brighton’s West Pier, has won the Sustainable Business Award from Brighton-based Sussex Business Awards. Lucho and Christine Zuidema, owners of the hotel, were presented with the coveted award at a recent glittering event, hosted by Sussex Business Awards 2008/09 at Copthorne Effingham Park Hotel, Gatwick.

The Sustainable Business Award is granted to those companies that have demonstrated outstanding achievement in reducing the impact of their business on the environment. In this regard, Brighton House has set a very high ‘green’ standard; healthy and environmentally friendly measures have been implemented in every possible way, yet without any sacrifice to guests’ comfort.

These include:
  • Breakfast is predominantly organic and locally sourced with many pleasures such as wild salmon, organic hams and local Sussex jams.
  • Electricity is supplied from renewable sources.
  • Long life low wattage light bulbs are used wherever possible.
  • Having recently undergone a complete refurbishment, Brighton House’s insulation is of the highest possible standard.
  • A central heating control system that restricts the heating of unoccupied rooms has recently been installed.
  • A sedum roof (green roof) has been implemented on the recent extension to the kitchen which both increases green space and provides improved insulation.
  • As much as possible is recycled, namely glass, paper, cartons, tins, and tetra packaging, and all bio-degradable waste is processed through a wormery which, in turn, provides excellent and rich compost.
  • All rooms are provided with two waste baskets and guests are asked to separate recyclable material from non-recyclable.
  • All cleaning materials and detergents are sourced from companies that providing ecological solutions, such as Ecover.
  • The company car has been converted to run on Liquid Petroleum Gas (LPG).

“We are proud of the efforts we have made to minimise our impact upon the environment,” says Lucho Zuidema, “and we are particularly proud to have won this award which has encouraged us to make Brighton House even greener! We would also like to urge other businesses to take up the green challenge. It is absolutely vital but also very rewarding.”

The Sustainable Business Award was sponsored by Veolia Environmental Services (formerly Onyx) which is committed to providing a sustainable approach to managing household waste. http://www.veoliaenvironmentalservices.co.uk
