BCA stages a regular monthly sale of up to 200 motorcycles at the Peterborough auction centre and the most recent sale attracted around 300 customers, including substantial export interest from European-based buyers.

BCA Peterborough Manager, Andrew McDonald commented ?Our most recent specialist motorbike sale at Peterborough on 30th January attracted around 300 buyers to bid on ?bikes entered by Bank of Scotland, Police authorities, BMW Park Lane, lease and finance sources and even direct manufacturer stock. The sale averaged 112% of guide prices, with a number of individual models outperforming the guides by significantly more ? Harley-Davidson was particularly strong, for example. This simply underlines the current level of demand, which is exceptional and is outstripping supply.?

BCA launched the motorcycle sales programme at Peterborough nearly three years ago and it has become established as a must-attend event for the motorcycle trade and market watchers. Bikes on offer range from tourers and high-performance sports bikes to mopeds and scooters.

BCA?s next sale is on Friday 27th February at BCA Peterborough, Boongate, Peterborough PE1 5AH, commencing at 1.00 pm.

Around 200 motorbikes will be on offer. Full catalogue details and a picture of every motorbike entered for the sale will be available online through BCA?s exclusive Commercial Auction View service. www.commercialauctionview.com .

Thanks for this. Never thought about buying a bike from auction before.
I had been looking and what with the price of bikes in the UK at present it's no surprise Europeans are attending.
08 model year unregistered GSX1000R for £7595 and 0% finance up to 42 months.
The same bike in Germany retails at 12,490?.

Can I buy as a privateer from a BCA auction, or must I be trade registered? Been looking for ex-police bikes for a while direct from source rather than third or fourth-hand.
