Top lad Dave, he sold my Honda CT90 last week and got me a good price, cheers pal😂👍👍

[@DTMathewsons]

You're welcome 🤝

[@conrod7]

Your thoughts on Mini sales being all or nothing - it wouldn't surprise me if it coincides with the 'Italian job' shown on TV

[@DTMathewsons]

could be on to something there

[@JamesStothard-zm4wy]

You're welcome glad you enjoyed it 😃

[@GaryDavidson-l6u]

Enjoyed this Dave , great insight to how things work 👍

[@DTMathewsons]

Thanks Gary glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@scottishcontentcreators]

The lots that really stood out for me were the Swift, not sure I've seen a cuter car, the old Bentley because it's a Bentley and it looked amazing! and the millennium dome JCB, not sure who'd want that, probably someone who collects police vehicles? Love this insight into the sale, thanks 👍.

[@DTMathewsons]

Glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@allanfettah4686]

Really enjoyable watch, as always Dave 👍

[@DTMathewsons]

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it 👍

[@elenadyulgerova9407]

Loved the on line auction

[@DTMathewsons]

Glad you did! Hopefully we'll be bigger and better again next time 🙏

[@brianw289]

In my experience laypeople tend to under-estimate, rather than over-estimate the value of classic cars.

[@elenadyulgerova9407]

Enjoyed this Dave

[@DTMathewsons]

Appreciate that thank you 👍

MGB - every part delivered to your door - not exactly. all except the two heater controllers and in dash indicator lenses. The only MGB parts that you need a scrapper for.

[@User-wollswoycegawage]

Cliff hanger 😂 What's the two mystery cars Tune in next week folks

[@DTMathewsons]

😂 have to wait and see won't you 👀

[@User-wollswoycegawage]

@@DTMathewsons does that mean my mum is going to have to pawn her jewellery again

[@davelawrence594]

Totally enjoyed this video dave & great information about how it all works & how interesting it is that you are willing for ideas for any improvement to your business!!👍🏻 And do you have an online show to buy items like that jacket you had on in this video!!🤔👍🏻

[@DTMathewsons]

Cheers Dave appreciate that 👍 always willing to hear suggestions, constantly learning! We do mate you can shop online here mathewsons-classic-cars.myshopify.com/collections/all

[@vincenttarling5902]

do you think that the popularity of the show is pushing the auction prices up to or near retail prices?

[@DTMathewsons]

no not at all, the prices of classics fluctuate regularly and we're just seeing a little rise at the moment 🚗

[@AndyPipkin-dj8sy]

i just MOT checked the Mini sportpack thinking I want THAT mini - it shows no MOT since 2008 but has had 30K miles added since then, does that mean 30K on track or a brave owner using it on road?

[@stephenhartnell4628]

Nice one 👍👍

[@DTMathewsons]

Thanks 👍

[@nigelhales874]

I love the left hand drive Volkswagen beetle how much please

[@DTMathewsons]

Sorry Nigel it sold in our timed auction today for £6,500

[@nigelhales874]

My son love the Ford's

[@DTMathewsons]

us too 🙌

[@joffey1212]

The smart meter is a very bad move,

[@tonysplodge44]

Does anyone else fantasise about being a billionaire and buying a mass of cars from ALL the auctions, and then having a massive collection in a super warehouse... driving each of them when I fancy, and employing 20 or so mechanics to keep them all going.....? Sorry, got carried away there. Must go and have a lie down. Back to my milk round on my bike. One day, maybe.......

[@DTMathewsons]

we've definitely all had that thought at some point!

[@dominicedwards9117]

The question is will labour change the 40 year old rules and also cars that are a,ready tax excempt, what happens to them?

[@brianw289]

I imagine they'll probably introduce a cut-off at some point, like they did with black and white number plates, which can't be displayed on vehicles constructed after 1 January 1980. It wouldn't surprise me if a cut-off of 1 January 1990 is introduced for the Historic Vehicle class.

[@dominicedwards9117]

@@brianw289 do you think they will reverses the decision on tax and mot exempt on cars that are already 40 plus years?

[@brianw289]

@@dominicedwards9117 I'd be surprised if they scrapped the 40-year rule on vehicle excise duty, but who knows with a Socialist government. Personally, I think all cars should have an MOT - classics could maybe be moved to every two years rather than annually.

[@tonysmith2217]

Labour wont give two hoots,the zero tax low emmisions tax ice cars and leccy cars are getting placed on the ved ladder,do you think they will treat old cars any differently given time....

[@uncensored5104]

Can you pay and take cars on the day of the Auction?

[@DTMathewsons]

our auction site is closed to the public on auction days, we ask that collection is within 14 days of the auction
