This was great. Freelander 2 are awesome cars and very reliable. The one I used to own is now on 264,000 miles. Still drives up and down to the South of France. 2.2 engines are v reliable.

[@RaysTrack]

Pleased to see Freelander 2s holding their own. Had mine for eight years now - one of the most comfortable cars I've ever had for long trips. Great in the floods and on ice and really reliable.

[@bluenose7984]

SUV's are going to be taxed off the road under Starmer's reign. I'm surprised anyones still buying them.

[@DaDa-David]

Loved this! reminds me of going to Manheim Colchester lat 1990's! Just for the experience, then started buying cheap and cheerful in what I called 'Banger Night' every Thursday evening. I can remember tatty Sierras going through for £25 sold. I employed a bit of 'Bangernomics' through a bad time (Divorce) and on two ocassions bought cars that others there laughed at - a 1986 Audi 90 2.0 for £90 plus fees, fresh MOT after replacing steering rack with used one and some cheap lowering spring as a front one had cracked - 187000 miles up I ran it og 5 months before trading it plus cash for an e34 BMW 535i that did its head gasket a week after I picked it up! But crazziest was a Renault Saffrane 2.5 - huge seats, leather ligned dar (fake wood) barge that was so quiet and comfortable, cost me £200 + fees, ran it for 5 months before head gasket went, never spent a penny on anything but fuel and road tax. Those was the days!

[@MaxMax-th7uz]

Love those days ,, so many cheap cars from YES car credit ! Even bought a car for £5 .. no buyers fees under £30 … probably 20 years ago !, A pair of trainers cost more than a car !

[@julianlord2697]

The car market used to have a lot of older wrecks that ran. Sadly ULEZ and scrappage schemes have sent so many off and the recent lack of new cars and better build quality have killed them off

[@colinpadley1897]

I bought four cars there over the years, some good deals, kept them for years, then lockdown and then online only for traders, so forced to buy one from a dealer, and gave them a three grand markup, dealers ain't my favourite people, no offence.

[@johnelliott9415]

Joe, really enjoyed this one. I listen carefully to your advice on what's good and not so good. 👍🏻

[@dig-it-alldetecting6393]

Fantastic content. Really enjoyed watching how it should be done,as I'm thinking of going to an auction myself for the first time! 😮 Just got to do a bit more checking out how it's done. I'm sure it's not as easy as you made it look on the day,so I will go through your back catalogue of work until I feel I will have enough confidence to go to one. Thanks for helping out there's valuable lessons to be learnt here. Best wishes 😊

[@roystonvehicles9129]

Jump in the cars bud as soon as keys come out, check clutch, windows, blower, everything you can, not the cool way to do it, but it'll save you some nasty fixes, rev the boll**ks off them as well, check for smoke, open bonnet and do your checks as well, you might feel a dick but it'll save you a fortune, plenty of high clutches, non working windows all that stuff at auction, maybe even plug a dongle in if poss, most auctions clear lights, I've seen em do it, look underneath as well, I've had some nasty oil leaks recently, all good advice mate.

[@AntonyBall-hm4jo]

Rev the boll**ks off them? Cold engine? Glad I'm not buying a car off you.

[@semiretired86]

remember checking if the cambelt/wetbelt have been changed on the Ecoboost and it has digital servicebook so meaby there's some more servicehistory to get at Ford

[@greenzero3389]

Great video. Seemed to be a very sucessful auction. G3 is quite a schlep, but you bought some nice looking stock there, hopefully some were 'cleaners' cars 😂

[@gillkite6476]

Hope you do well for yourselfs and thank you for being open and honest and realistic.

[@Kingdonnerkebab]

Great vid Joe, noticed a hell of alot of cars from Scotland and northern Scotland down there for auction, any idea of the reason why?

[@brianr9342]

I can't help but wonder the same thing. Is a Scottish car dealer (John Clark) shipping motors to the other end of the country because they make more money there?

[@tardeliesmagic]

They're worth more geographically.

[@loneranger5928]

Nice one interesting, to watch the auction 👍

[@G4RY1159]

Different level is this Channel, fair play! Thanks again.

[@davidash1008]

Still watching the vid but my guess is the freelander is a Black Edition. It was a runout limited edition available oddly in only black...or white

[@ShiftingMetal]

Well done on a good days buying, I was hoping you would buy the BMW 640 as it looks such a fantastic car and beautiful colour BUT do understand that not the greatest seller as you mentioned! Great day and look forward to more info on these.

I think Fiestas are still in demand - lowish margins, but generally cheap to repair (even eco booms) and sell quickly. Small profit, quick return

[@normanstephens5391]

Hi Joe & Toby. Nice to see (joe) had his sensible head on today. There were quite a few "Scotland" registered cars I saw. The Eco Fiesta, being one. Probably why the wing is rusting ?? 🤷‍♂🤷‍♂. See you in the next one. Cheers. 👍👍

Why not check the MOT online before making a decision 🤔 Book the Suzuki in for a MOT and you can drive it one trade plates just have proof of MOT booking

[@ShiftingMetal]

Whoops

[@sheilamorrison1954]

Either way they are poor on power for the economy they get.

[@daveandjanwoolf8078]

When doing the sums you must take into consideration what you believe is as a worthwhile return for your time / effort / risk premium when compared to what you would earn as an employee - if this is below £40-50k + then you have to question its viability. Clearly some car sellers are making a very worthwhile return BUT I cannot help but feel there are many more who are not.

[@Bioplast6]

Freelander...maybe Black and white edition?

[@hughesy606]

That Stepway was missing the graphics on the door so probably had a repair in the past, and a poor one if they didn’t do the stickers.

[@reddeviluk]

I went from BMW to a Freelander to a VW Up......I did it for cheaper motoring, little did I know I was also becoming more desirable....LOL

Hello from Ireland again Joe. I do love an Astra Gte, Joe (Wink, Wink) lol. Lovely Kia, and that Fiesta, We don't get many of those over here, wow what a nice looking Mondeo. That Nissan Note looks very cheap at £3,600. Joe, that Mini Clubman went for £3,600. £4000 out the door. I'm going to Wreck Your Head next February or around that time lol. And 15 Saab's Joe, at £200 each. Job done 😅😅😅. I haven't seen an Auction video like this for a while, it was brilliant, Joe. Wicked day Mate. Well, I enjoyed it, probably better than you lol. 🙏🙏👌👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

[@mickeymini9522]

Countryman - original generation with the N47 engine! High failure rate with these engines - can be fixed but its engine out and full rebuild. While you are at it, EGR and particulate filter delete plus stage 1 - really improves performance but you are talking 000s to do that work.

[@K21_KXW]

Get the eco boost cheap and do a cambelt change correct and will never have issues

[@bluefish2303]

The Up! is great stock, like the one Chops got recently 🙌

[@chrispenn715]

Enjoyed that ta. At the risk of stating the bleeding obvious, why not take a pen with you and scribble a short note against cars you want and cars you've ruled out - just a few words would do it

You'd have been as well pushing for the up and the note, easy (hopefully) no trouble, little prep, quick sellers, even if your on say 800 quid net, it's a good, easy return, cars like that will always make top money at auction, but will be easy flippers.

55:00 same wheels as mine… That’s a limited edition gtc you can tell by the 20” rims and the front bumper is more like the vxr version with different styling on the corners where the fog lights sit.. also makes the bumper in that condition worth around £1600 complete.. I picked up one last year 2016 68k only one that didn’t have 2-4yrs advisories for oil leaks like the other 5 I was looking at.. paid £4300.. I will say one thing though I’m never buying another black car bastard always looks dirty where my last silver car never looked dirty…

[@CF21LDB]

The 1.6BlueHDi on the Citroens and Peugeots can suffer with adblue issues, sometimes can be lucky and it’s just a nox sensor but many cases it’s the injector in the adblue system and unfortunately you have to buy a whole new tank Citroen and Peugeot don’t sell the injector separate. The engines themselves pretty reliable it’s just that dam adblue nonsense. I am a Citroen nut always will be but I know they ain’t faultless. Shame about that other Cactus you bought not many in that colour either especially the Feel model having the turbo 1.2 110. Most Feel Puretech are 1.2 82 non turbo.
