Construction firm's vehicles are auctioned

An online auction of more than 40 vehicles belonging to Wrekin Construction is believed to have raised just over £95,000.

The minibuses, vans and cars were ordered to be put up for sale by Ian Best and Tom Lukic, joint administrators with Ernst & Young of the collapsed Shifnal-based company which was put into administration on March 10.

They were sold through website www.bidspotters .com and are the first assets to be sold off as the administrators continue investigations into the Wrekin Group, bought by David Unwin through his Tamar Group company in 2007.
