Auctioning used cars - Selling vehicles

Top tips for buying and selling at car auctions

If you want to sell your car at an auction make it look as good as it possibly can before it hits the eyes of potential buyers! Car-wash it on the inside and out so that it can be distinguished from the other vehicles that are up for sale. Draw up a list of your car's relevant features like power steering so that buyers can speedily read about vital information on the motor before they make a bid. If you don't want the car to be sold at too low a price, tell the auctioneer that you want to attain a reserve price before the bidding begins. For all the buyers out there who want to grab a bargain, try to find out as much information as possible from the vehicle owner concerning the number of previous keepers, mileage or general maintenance problems. Do your homework if you have the time and try to discover how much the model would sell for if it were sold privately. Bid low at the start and have a limit in mind so you don't overspend.
