  • I prefer the public car auctions such as a tow auctions, estate sales auctions and eBay..Even Craigslist at times may be a great source to look for the car. Ive had a lot of luck at local towing auctions over the years but that's just me. In the UK do they have towing auctions or that just a USA phenomenon?

  • Great advice paul, might also be worth checking out Newport Car Auctions Website

  • I used to live next to a car used car showroom in Wandsworth London and knew the owner as a neighbor. A friend asked me to go along with him to a car auction, once there we went into the 10k and up room where the higher quality motors were being sold. I noticed at the front standing a group of men all bidding on the a number of models also there to my amassment was my neighbor. I noted he purchased an Audi A4 which was on his forecourt the next day at a 3k increase from what he paid.

  • At an auction you have a preview time so you can start the car, hear it run, check the accessories, and write down what you want to pay. No pressure just avoid auction fever and do not get into bidding wars with others or you will lose your ass!

  • I got a listing off auctionlistnow com most of the car auctions in CALI

  • quick question. I live in California and i am about to go to one on the weekend. Looking at a 04 to 05 accord. Car faxed em. Whats usually the percentage you save when buying from an auction instead of buying from a private party?

  • Tip, decide your maximum price before bidding,and STICK to it.If you are not capable of doing that,car auctions are not for you.

  • your website doesn't seem to be working

  • I have bought car-auction, I wouldn't say its bad, good product overall.Make sure to read my review at squidoo(.)com/car-auctionrevie­w before you buy it.

  • I got a question. If your car gets towed and you can get it out, can you buy it back at an auction?

  • The fourth light...

    Blue= The vehicle "title", or whatever it is referred to outside the US, is NOT present. This requires more effort to obtain the title, (usually through a title professional) before you can even think about registering, or selling said vehicle.

  • Yes correct also know as title attached and it is announced when the title will be delivered, usually the next day.

  • One word. Arbitration. Unless you are a mechanic, don't buy at a US auction, if you can't arbitrate it. (note for prospective buyers at United States auto auctions) Sales at auction consist of a "4 light system" GREEN= "ride & drive". Free of any defect(or none declared, and sale of such vehicle, can be reversed, in the arbitration process. YELLOW= Caution. Vehicle may have some type of salvage history, or another defect. RED= As Is. Also includes vehicles 10 years, and older.

  • thank you
