CAR AUCTION PRICES GOING CRAZY LOW (UK CAR AUCTION)

The rising cost of petrol, insurance, road tax, repairs compounded by the recession is having an adverse effect……… this usually starts with the car market and ends with mass layoffs and a property market crash over the next 18-24 months

Would love to hear your comments , but due to to auction noise, we cannot hear well. When you speak very directly into the mic, we can hear clearly.So sorry to criticise your superb auction coverage.

[@Papillion-Man]

That VW UP looks very much like the 59 plate Daihatsu Sirion that I bought in 2015... I think I paid £750 then... but when it came to parts, it was a mare, as Daihatsu had pulled out of Europe just after making that model, which was a real shame.

[@graemew7001]

You did well on the purchases today, all easy fixes if they need it. It's a shame you hadn't noticed the VW Up as I think that would have been a good seller, hopefully quicker than the Mii you had.

Lee, I have recently bought an E51 Elgrand similar to the black one. I wanted to upgrade from my Mazda Bongo. I bought a high spec one with warranty and I'm first UK owner, I've already been under it with Lanoguard etc and secondary cats replaced with stainless steel through pipes. Having driven it now for a couple of months I find it just an awesome car, and that V6 can shift even though it is a two tonne van. Definitely thirsty, drive one if you get a chance though!!

Was the auction for traders only or was it for anyone because there were some cheap cars also what do you pay on top of the end price auction fees etc!?

[@jeremywentworth1833]

Just thinking & you mentioned it Lee regarding the VW up , with the car besn provisional you if possible should have gone to enquires etc & said if owner or dealer garage won't accept the bid would they if i offered £200 above what they did. Basically same as gazumping. You also i thought should have bid on the 14 plate Kia Sportage which miles weren't too high & only £1900.& the 13 plate Renault Clio at £1700 . Obviously i know you have both isn't the kia already sold though. The Sasb 93 sportwagon couldn't see the front but an 07 possibly a facelift, if it is it looked just like my 09 sportwagon Vector CTDI even same colour & wheels. Bet that had been traded in as the cost of the 2.0T engine is outrageous its £700 or so.
