Our auction represents a
very efficient way of turning your used vehicle into cash. If you
intend to sell your car at auction, it is worth considering the
following:
Make every effort to
present your car in the best possible way. Ensure that it is cleaned
and polished, inside and out.
Write clearly on the
entry form, giving all vehicle details. REMEMBER: a
misleading description may make the owner liable to prosecution
under the various trading standards laws and you will be charged
commission in the event of a cancelled sale.
Bring your car or van to
the auction as early as possible on the day of the sale or,
preferably, the day before. Make sure that you bring all paperwork
relating to the vehicle i.e. Logbook (V5), MOT Certificate and
service history if applicable.
Our experienced staff
and professional auctioneers will be pleased to assist in providing
a valuation and advise a suitable price to ensure the best chance of
sale.
Vehicles without a valid
MOT certificate must be entered without reserve and will be sold to
the highest bidder. In exceptional circumstances, a vehicle may be
accepted with a reserve price, if a valuation has previously been
agreed with the auctioneer.
Your entry fee, which is
payable at the time of entry, covers entry into two sales after
which time a second entry fee is due, should you wish your vehicle
to be entered into further sales.
When your vehicle is
sold, a commission is chargeable. Commission rates are posted in the
entry office. All charges are deducted from the sale proceeds.
Unsold vehicles will be subject to a storage charge on a daily basis
if not removed when requested.
When your vehicle is
sold a remittance advice and cheque (A/C Payee only) will be posted
by first class mail one week after the day of the sale. Please
ensure that your full name, address and post code are printed
clearly on the entry form as these details cannot be changed after
the sale.
If your vehicle is
subject to a hire purchase agreement, you must ensure that all
relevant details are included on the entry form. We are able to
settle finance agreements provided that the net sale proceeds are
sufficient to clear the outstanding balance. A Nominal charge is
made for this service. Please note that it is a criminal offence to
sell a vehicle without clearing outstanding finance and we check all
vehicles sold against hire purchase information registers at the
time of the sale. This register will disclose if any finance house
has an interest, if it is recorded with the police as stolen, if it
has been the subject of a total loss insurance claim or had a change
of registration number.
