Shoreham Vehicle Auctions (SVA) has announced a Carnival theme for its annual Zenith Centre day auction, on 9th July.

Building on last year’s Sale by the Sea auction, this year’s Carnival-themed sale aims to be even bigger, with over 200 vehicles being auctioned on behalf of Zenith.

The event is aimed at bringing together valued buyers, vendors, and partners to experience SVA’s people-first approach and commitment to great service.

All of the 200 cars are NAMA Grade 1-3, with a range of EVs, hybrid and low-emission vehicles on offer, and buyers can take advantage of SVA’s special £225 fixed buyer’s fee.

At the event, SVA and Zenith will be hosting a charity auction, raising funds for St Gemma’s Hospice, which provides essential palliative and end of life care in Leeds.

SVA will be donating £25 for every car sold, which Zenith will match, additional donations can be made on the day.

SVA’s managing director, Alex Wright (pictured, left), said: “Our Zenith summer sale is a celebration of the relationships that make this industry work.

“With technology driving online buying through the year, there’s nothing better than getting everyone together, face to face at a physical auction, and this year’s Carnival will be a real highlight.

“We’re confident it will build on last year’s success whilst supporting a good cause in the form of St Gemma’s Hospice.”

Zenith’s head of remarketing, Stephen Barlow, said: “We’re delighted to once again partner with SVA for the Carnival special sale.

“It’s a great opportunity to showcase our high-quality vehicles to a wide audience while also giving something back through the St Gemma’s Hospice charity auction.”
