Hello mate. Find out what day they run cars throu and at what value. also worth finding out the commision athey charge and the entry fee. Cean ur car and drive it down few hours before the sale. Giveas much detail as u can, history. They wil print a data sheet out and put it in the window etc etc 4u. Yes u can put a reserve on your car and they will ring you if it gets anywhere near when it goes through.


Depending on what your car is, age condition etc etc, soem ppl will frown upon it being there as a private sale.

Why has teh owner put it in? whats wrong with it? different story if its a dealer PX, this info is in the window of your car. Remember, auctions are full of traders and u wont get what u think for it. Also full of scallys so make sure you dont leave ur service book in the car or the stereo face.

Hope this helps

Don't expect to get much money this way either. It's a quick way to sell a car, but you make the least money.
