CONTRACT hire, leasing and daily rental vehicles can be offered for sale before the end of their contract, using a new online service from JTK Automotive.

By remarketing vehicles prior to their de-fleet day, Smartsell claims to reduce the turn-around time of de-fleeted vehicles. Gary Monaghan, operations director at JTK Automotive, said: 'We market the vehicle while it is still on contract. When it comes back and is appraised there is already an active buyer base waiting.'
