OPENLANE stands for a fundamental change! More than ever we’re committed to making buying used cars easy for you. And with the launch of OPENLANE UK, easy just got easier.

OPENLANE UK is a subsidiary of OPENLANE Inc., a US-based, listed company (NYSE, KAR) that provides customers around the globe with innovative, technology-driven remarketing solutions and related services. Together, we are dedicated to making car remarketing – which is complex and risky – a seamless and successful experience.

Here are six ways in which the openlane.co.uk marketplace just got easier for you as a buyer:

Greater stock variety and nationwide coverage

Openlane.co.uk is rapidly expanding it’s vehicle inventory via OPENLANE Sell, our modular dealer platform. With OPENLANE Sell, dealers will be able to advertise their vehicles directly to buyers like you, while we take care of everything else. And whenever you’re in need of local inventory, the soon to be released OPENLANE location radius search feature will help you find these vehicles right in your own backyard!

We also have storage hub locations nationwide, with plans to increase our geographical footprint even further in 2024.

More ways to advertise your own unwanted stock

You can take advantage of OPENLANE Sell, our modular platform that enables you to advertise your unwanted stock to thousands of online trade buyers online with ease, while you stay in control of everything.

More transparent and secure

We have listened to you and understand transparency is key to building trust.

Openlane.co.uk provides enhanced transparency through clear pricing, simplified order and document management and streamlined claims processes in My account coming soon. We want you to feel confident and informed throughout your buying journey.

More user-friendly

We continuously strive to make our marketplace more user-friendly, on every device. Openlane.co.uk presents a range of popular existing features such as advanced vehicle search and filters, bidding guidence, CAP valuations, consumer market price, NAMA grading, Mechanical Indicators, alert options & recommendations. Among the new expected features is the location radius search functionality. This allows you to find vehicles located within a specific distance, making your search more efficient and convenient.

We place a strong emphasis on personal guidance throughout the purchase process. Our improved My account pages allow you to complete your transactions quicker. Additionally, the extensive self-support FAQs, self-help tool, and in-platform messages provide you with the necessary resources to navigate the platform with ease.
We also understand the importance of providing you excellent customer support. At openlane.co.uk we not only continue to offer local phone support but will also soon introduce a brand new chat feature, making it even quicker and easier to contact us!
