Advice on how to buy and sell a car at auction

If you're eager to sell your car at an auction event ensure that it looks polished and clean! Car-wash it on the inside and out so that it can be distinguished from the array of other vehicles present at the auction. Come up with a list of your car's features, such as air bag facilities and engine size, so that prospective buyers can quickly get hold of the information they require on the motor in order to make a reasoned bid. If you need to avoid the risk of the car being sold too cheaply, let the auctioneer know that you want to hit a reserve price beforehand. For all the buyers out there who want to grab a bargain, pose questions and get as many answers 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 find out how much the model would sell for if it were sold privately. Always start your bid low and don't surpass your budget limit.
