On Thursday April 18th, at a cosy location in the Netherlands, a select group of automotive professionals attended the OPENLANE Netherlands kick-off event.

The evening started with a few words from OPENLANE CEO Johan Meysen. He was followed by Remco Otte, country manager of the Dutch subsidiary, who shared his vision and ambition for the company.

Then things got a little more festive. The attendees were treated to the comedy stylings of 'professor Willemse'. As you will see in the photo-gallery, the professor managed to put smiles on the faces of all the automotive professionals.

Professional knowledge put to the test

The attendees also had to opportunity to put their own knowledge of cars to the test. 2 Lucky winners who could guess the vehicle under the veil, went home with a special price. Mr. R. Bootsma and mr. B. Sniekers from Feijts Auto's can now follow all OPENLANE's auctions on their own brand new iPad mini.
