Last Sunday, round trip to Bucks to collect one car - trip took about 6 hours there and back. On Wednesday this week - 1 hour bidding and 5 cars won. 4 seem ok, one is a bit of a dog but I haven'y done anything with them yet as they arrived at 5.15pm last night. 1 in 5 is always a dog mate. That’s the only consistent ratio that’s stood up over the last 4-5 years. 1 hour ago, SC Derby said: at least you can walk away though. The best ones are people who bring them here and say are you interested in this. I've had a few families I've had 4/5/6 cars from now and all sold well. very true and a test drive shows up everything! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I bought with my eyes open. Tiguan with a festive dashboard and no MOT. Obviously a few lights were for seatbelt, handbrake, a bulb out plus ABS and Traction Control. My guess is an ABS sensor or speed sensor and a bulb will have all those lights out but they were enough to scare off all the privates and plastic traders.
