Mon Motors Group is piloting the model-VM automated collection and delivery system at its Audi fleet department.

The Cardiff based dealer has already seen positive results from the Ebbon-Dacs solution, which improves vehicle collection and delivery efficiency.

Family-run Mon Motors operates 11 sites in South Wales and the West of England, selling around 10,500 new cars per annum.

The fleet department is responsible for sales of around 1,300 new cars a year and, if the pilot is a success, the intention is to roll it out to the wider Group over the coming months.

Mon Motors has already had experience of working with Ebbon-Dacs’ moDel delivery solution, using it in the collection of used vehicles and the delivery of new vehicles for leasing company customers who use Ebbon-Dacs’ e-procurement platform, Leaselink.

MoDel-VM complements the original moDel system from Ebbon-Dacs which currently handles around 18,000 vehicle movements per month across the fleet market and is employed by 16 of the UK’s largest contract hire and leasing companies, who are also users of Ebbon-Dacs’ Leaselink e-procurement platform.

moDel-VM offers the same level of functionality and features, including improved photographic capabilities to more accurately record and assess the condition of collected vehicles, along with more detailed, but easier to use, damage reporting which can be relayed instantly to end users.
