Expert Insights at BVRLA Forums

The BVRLA’s Forum programme brings industry experts together to share practical insight on the key issues shaping members' day-to-day operations - from managing vehicles on fleet to maximising value at end-of-life.

With two distinct forums - Residual Value and Remarketing (RVR) and Vehicle and Fleet Management (VFM) - members can tap into targeted content that supports strategic planning, operational efficiency, and future readiness.

Chaired by Karl Lord of Enterprise, the RVR Forum delivers valuable intelligence on the used vehicle market. From volatility in van residuals to electric vehicle trends and the impact of emerging OEMs, it’s a must for remarketing professionals.

Next session: Thursday 19 June at GWM ORA, Solihull.

Speakers from Auto Trader and Autorola will explore shifting car buyer behaviour and the evolving mobility landscape.

Led by Blaine Colston of Kinto UK, the VFM Forum reflects the sector’s evolving approach to service, maintenance, and repair (SMR). It covers topics including preventative maintenance, AI in diagnostics, and EV readiness across fleets and service providers.

Next session: Thursday 10 July at Epyx, Warwickshire

This VFM Forum includes contributions from The AA, Accident Exchange, and Fleet Assist, with discussion points such as vehicle downtime trends and accident management.
