Tuesday the 5th of April saw more than 100 of Northern Ireland’s used car dealers attend DealerConfNI at the Hilton Hotel in Templepatrick – the province’s first ever car dealer conference, hosted by Used Cars NI.com. They were treated to an information packed day of talks and Q&A’s with some of the UK’s automotive industry leaders.
The unique event supported by headline sponsors MotoNovo Finance, saw a host of motor-related exhibitors and suppliers come together with a large audience of NI’s most influential car dealers to create an event with an air of buzz and excitement.

The informative speeches from Trading Standards, CAP/HPI, independent FCA consultant Graham Filmer, iVendi and MotoNovo made for an impressive line-up and ensured that a day away from usual business was more than justified for the delegates.

Here at Used Cars NI, we always felt there was local demand for an event like this, and the high number of attendees and the positive feedback from delegates and exhibitors confirmed this.
We are delighted with Tuesday’s success, but couldn’t have hosted such an event without the support of our sponsors, speakers, and exhibitors. We would like to send a heartfelt thanks to all who attended.
