Buy Your Next Car At Auction And Save Money! By Craig Wilson

Auto auctions can be a goldmine for the prospective car buyer with many makes and models being offered for sale at wholesale and below prices. As well as reduced prices, buying at auction also removes the ‘middle-man’ from the equation and savings made over cars bought from a dealer can extend to thousands of dollars.

How is it possible that these cars are offered at substantially reduced prices? Cars that are seized by police, seized by the Tax Department, repossessed by banks and financial institutions and Government excess stock all cost money to keep in storage so they are keen to sell them fast. The quickest and easiest way to move these vehicles is to offer them at discounted prices.

Car dealers know of the benefits of buying at auction to maintain their profit levels, but not many members of the general public realize that they too can buy from the same auctions. There are many good resources on the Internet where you can search for cars and some sites also offer online bidding and with literally hundreds of auto auctions going on each and every day the range that is available is massive.

We’ve had a look at the benefits of buying cars at auction, but what is the downside? Basically a pre-inspection by someone who you can trust is a must. When you are the winning bidder on a vehicle there is usually little opportunity for a refund if you are not happy with your purchase, so you must know what you are buying before the bidding takes place. Generally there is a viewing day where you can look for suitable vehicles and have them inspected, however a test drive is usually not available.

One other downside is that warranties are generally not offered unless the car is reasonably late model and is still under the factory warranty. These downside’s need to be taken in to consideration however with the amount of money that you can save yourself chances are you will be way out in front once the deal is done and you will have found yourself a much newer or up-spec vehicle than you could otherwise afford.

Car Auction Membership Reviews - Save Hard Earned Money On Your Next Auto Purchase By Joe Krystofik

Are you in the market for a new car and you're interested in saving money like 99% of people out there? Then joining a car auction membership site could possibly be for you. I'll go over the whole process that I went through personally and some additional tips that I would do next time. I saved much more than I was expecting on my BMW 330 purchase and I know there are many others out there like myself.

First off, a lesson learned with buying anything online is to review the industry and check out personal recommendations. I rarely make a quick purchase and this is especially true with my recent car purchase. I've always heard about government auctions in the past but was definitely skeptical having known nothing about it. Naturally, I did some research and saved $5,200 off the Kelly Blue Book value. The first thing to look for on an auto auction site is to see if they offer a full money back guarantee with with the membership in case you're not satisfied. It will show their confidence in their product which should be important to a buyer. Another factor which you should ask yourself is, "How large and widespread is their car database?". After purchasing a few memberships this can be the most disappointing when searching through their auction database. Either they don't have anything in my area or the cars are nothing I'm interested in. Luckily for me I'm located in a major city but maybe you're not. Therefore, this is an extra important factor in joining the site. So what is the solution? Well, this is where checking out review sites can help. See what others have recommended and what they've been happy with. On many car auction sites you can test the database out beforehand to get a "teaser" of what is in the area.

Finally, once you get your membership keep a constant eye out for the new auctions and attend the public auctions that may be going on with less competition. This can be your bread winner here by jumping on local auctions where the competition isn't as fierce. After reading up in forums I learned this and found it to be some valuable insight. Some things I would have done differently would have been to be more patient. While it may be tempting to jump on the first, second or even third auction you go to I think patients would have allowed me to save a little bit more.

With this basic knowledge you should be well on your way to saving thousands on your next auto purchase. If you've discounted auto auctions in the past getting a membership to one might end up being one of the smartest things you could do. Just remember to look for sites that offer that money back guarantee if you're skeptical like many.

Buying a Car at an Online Auto Auction By Andrew Bicknell

For those that don't know auto auctions are the quickest and easiest ways for banks and government agencies to get rid of seized and repossessed vehicles. These auctions can be found all over the United States and can occur daily, weekly, and monthly and are a good place to find the automobile you've been searching for at a significant savings.

Here are six quick reasons why buying a car at an auction can be a good idea.

1. When you find a good auction site you will have piece of mind knowing they stake their reputation on providing a good experience.

2. Seized auto auctions can be a lot of fun. The sheer volume of vehicles to choose from can be quite an experience.

3. It can help you keep your budget intact when it comes to buying a new/used car.

4. You can set a maximum bid level that keeps you from overbidding and letting your emotions get the best of you.

5. You can save time and effort by not having to visit high pressure dealerships or driving from private sale to private sale hoping to find the car you are looking for.

6. Seized auto auctions are a great place to get great bargains on just about any type of vehicle. If you are interested in a high end vehicle, but don't care for the retail price tag, then government seized auto auctions are great for you.

As you probably already know, car dealers will do anything to get you into the car of your dreams. Dealers attend these private auctions to buy cars at a fraction of their retail value and subsequently turn them around, increase the price, and sell them to you at a dealership at a huge profit. Just think how much you could save if you bypassed your dealership and purchased directly from their sources. Car dealers know this, and they go to great lengths to protect this knowledge from the general public.

When you start bidding remember to stick with your plan, bid with your brain and don't let your emotions get the better of you. Don't get caught in a bidding war because one thing you have to keep in mind is the buyer's premium. This is usually in the 5% range and is a commission that is paid to the auction house on top of the winning bid on the vehicle. This means if you place a winning bid of say $20,000 you will pay an additional $1,000 to the auction house for their services. This can be a problem if you didn't take that into account when you got caught up in a bidding frenzy in which you used every last dollar you had. Use your head and you'll do fine.

Online auto auctions are a great place to find the car or truck you have been looking for at a rather large discount. By doing your research and bidding smartly you can save hundreds or even thousands of dollars on great cars.

So You Want to Try Your Luck at a Used Car Auction By Bob Ford

There are two basic types of auctions: Those open only to licensed car dealers, and those that are open to the public - including dealers.

Auctions open to the public are often best suited, in our opinion, for people who truly know cars and who know how to fix them or have access to a low cost maintenance facility. At most public auctions you can walk around the car, open the doors, look inside, and open the hood to examine the engine, but you will not be allowed to drive it. .

Full payment is required at the time of purchase, all sales are final and they come "as is," which means there is no guarantee or warranty. While there are some good deals to be had, keep in mind that this is a high risk proposition.

Who Holds Public Auctions?
1. The General Services Administration
2. The U.S. Customs Service
3. The IRS
4. The U.S. Postal Service
5. Your local police department (State, County and City)
To find out what auctions are being held in your area, check your newspapers and television.

What you need to know
1. Find out when they are holding the pre-sale inspection period and take advantage of it.
2. Inquire about the terms of the sale.
- Do they require a deposit before permitting you to bid?
- How will they accept payment? Cashier checks? Credit Card? Cash?
3. Determine how you will get the car home. Be wary of people selling temporary registrations at auctions. In most cases, you’re going to have to tow or flat bed the car off the auction lot. Generally, you’ll find various tow services offered at the lot.

Determining How Much to Bid
1. During the inspection period perform, to the extent permitted, the inspection checks outlined in “What Car Dealers Won’t Tell You (Available in bookstores and on Amazon.com)
2. Write down the: Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), make, model, number

of cylinders, mileage optional equipment and note the condition of both the exterior and interior.
3. Then call three used car dealers or wholesalers and "pretend" that you have a used car to sell. Describe the car you've inspected giving them all the details. Ask the dealer to give you a “ballpark” price over the phone. Usually, his number will be ten to twenty percent below its wholesale value. Add 15% and you’ll probably be pretty close to its true wholesale value. You might also want to compare their quotes to the NADA website. (www.nada.com ) 4. Once you know the approximate wholesale market value, adjust your bidding accordingly knowing that, in a worst case scenario, you can probably sell the car back to a wholesaler. 5. Use the VIN Number to run a CarFax report prior to the auction. CarFax reports include any history of accident damage, odometer fraud, multiple owners, title problems and much more. To see a complete list of their reports, log on to www.CarFax.com

Tips on Bidding
1. Always got to auction with a not-to-exceed bid amount in mind. And stick to it. Don't let yourself get caught up in the frenzy of bids. Your top bid number should never be higher than the wholesale value of the car.
2. Often an auctioneer will start the bidding at a high number and then drop it if, as is usually the case, no one responds to the opening asking price. It’s usually best not to be the first one to bid. Get a sense of the interest in the car before you jump in.
3. It would be a good idea to attend an auction or two before you start seriously bidding. The more you can learn, the better your chances of reducing your risks.

Good luck!

Grab a Sweet Ride at the Used Car Auto Auction By Tim Shank

When I was growing up I had always heard about the used car auto auction that was held in our area. Ever week people would come from all around in order to buy a used car from this auction. I know people that have walked away with a car for around a hundred dollars and drove it for a couple of years, and I knew people that bought a high end car for more than a thousand dollars and had nothing but problems. When it came time for me to get my first car I went to the auction, but I went smart. I consulted with several of my friends who knew people that were regulars at the used car auto auction and here is what they told me to make sure I did.

The first thing was that I would be able to see the cars, look at them inside and out. I could even start the car and look under the hood, but I would not be able to drive them at all. The only time I would see them in motion is when they would bring the car up to the auction block. So I took a mechanic friend along with me to make sure (or reasonably sure) that the cars I was choosing to bid on were in running condition. I also went a few times before I bought, in order to get a feel for how things ran. Once I was comfortable with the process I decided it was time for me to buy a car.

They brought the higher end cars out first, I guess to see if they could get plenty of bidders from people who where waiting for the cheaper cars to come out, but I held off until they hit my price range. I made sure that I got in on the bidding right away and I bid in small increments to see if I could get the car for a better price, and I did.

So if you want a great used car then check out the used car auction that is in your area. Make sure you take along someone that knows cars in case you don't and get ready to drive away in a car for a lot less than you would pay at the dealership.

Free Government Car Auction - Do They Work? By Tim Shank

I know that you have heard the stories about people that have gone to a free government car auction and walked away with a $100,000 sports car for a pocket full of change. While this scenario does not generally happen, it is possible for you to make a great deal and pick up a very nice car for a reasonable price. The reports about how well you can do are a bit clouded and embellished in order for you to buy into something, but the fact is that going to a free government car auction is still a great way to get a nice car.

Free government car auctions have been around for quite a long time. The cars that they have available are seized from people for various reasons. It could be that the cars that they have are picked up from drug dealers that they busted, or perhaps seized because of tax problems. They then take these cars to a central location and offer them for auction.

One of the most difficult things is to know when and where these auctions are going to take place. There are plenty of places on the Internet that will give you a listing of all of the free government auctions so you can plan on getting over to one. Some people travel for thousands of miles just to attend one of these government car auctions, either to get a car for themselves at a great price, or to buy multiple cars for resale. So get on the list to find out where these auctions will take place, you could soon be driving away in a new car, for pennies on the dollar.

Auction Autos Inspection Tips By Mark Lunde

Looking to buy your next car at an auction? There are a few things you need to keep in mind and be prepared for when buying this way. The main thing is to get your head straight. You are trying to save money, right? Don’t get caught up in a bidding war. Know beforehand how much you want to spend and stick to it. Check your emotions at the door so you don’t get carried away. This holds true for all sorts of auctions —real estate, collectables, etc.

What kind of auto auction is this? Police impound? Municipal government surplus? Repossessed? Rental fleet? It’s important to know what sort of life your car has “lived” before you two met. A vehicle used by the police may have seen some rugged action chasing bad guys. And that fancy Mercedes over there could have been the one being chased. Now, if the auction is for repossessed cars that the bank took back from someone who suffered some financial loss, chances are it’s not been “ridden hard and hung up wet.” In any case, you need to inspect it. Here’s what I do:

1. Start at the bottom. Look at the tires—better yet, feel the tread. If there is uneven wear or the tread has a “saw toothed” feel, that may indicate suspension and alignment problems.

2. Look under the engine and the transaxle (on rear wheel drive cars) for any wet, oily drips on the ground. Also look for any crud that's stuck to these areas where there is oily “sweat” road grime coating it. These are from leaky seals and could indicate serious maintenance problems.

3. Stand up (stretch you back) and go to the four corners of the car. Press down firmly on each corner and let go. If the car bounces, you’ll need shock absorbers or struts.

4. Pop the hood. Take a helicopter view of the engine. Look at everything, and if there are any loose wires, corroded connections (battery) frayed electrical tape, cracked “rubber booties” on the spark plugs, ragged belts or dried out, cracked hoses, you should be aware that these things will cost money to repair. Check the oil. If it’s dark and smells burnt, there’s a problem. Check the transmission fluid. It should be a transparent amber color and at the proper level. Check the coolant level and the brake fluid levels If these are not ok, adjust you bid accordingly.

5. Inspect the exterior. Is the paint and shine regular all around the car? No ripples? Is the gap between the doors, hood and trunk even with the body of the car? If it is, good. If it’s not, the car has been hit and it wasn’t repaired properly. Beware.

6. Open the doors—all of them. Listen for squeaks and groans—not good. Check the glass for even the tiniest of cracks and chips. Do the windows roll up and down easily? Try them all.

7. Get in. Is the seat firm and comfortable? Or does it feel like a hippo has been sitting there?

8. Turn on the engine and listen for knocks and noises. Press on the gas. Any vibrations? Noises? Let it idle and look at the exhaust pipe. Any smoke? A little is OK, a lot is not!

9. Check the radio, CD player, cigarette lighter, turn signals, interior lights, head lights, brake lights, and everything else you can that should work from the inside.

10. Get out, shake your head, look disgusted (even if you really like the beast). This last one is to psyche out the other bidders and possibly reduce the competition when the bidding starts.

Take your maximum bid in your head and mentally subtract the estimated cost to repair those problems you even suspect that the car has. Remember that if you can’t drive it, you still are taking a chance on the transmission—a really costly repair. Then subtract half the cost of your estimated repairs again because you underestimated the repair costs—guaranteed. Now you have your maximum bid. Don’t you dare go over it!

Taking Advantage of Used Car Auctions By Ashley D. Bigham

Used car auctions are a great way to find the car you’re looking for without spending too much money. There’s lots of opportunity for this if you can find listings for car auctions or bid online. Before you get too excited, however, you need to prepare yourself so that you’ll be able to get a good deal without bidding on a badly conditioned car. Taking advantage of auto auctions can yield great success, but you need to be equipped with these tips before you jump into action.

Know what type of auction you’re going to before you go. This would seem like a no brainer, but there are different kinds out there. Auto auctions are often held by the police, government or auction lots, and they sell anything from government surplus vehicles to repossessed and impounded cars. When you buy a car, it comes ‘as is;’ there’s not warranties on them, and taking them back will be a major hassle if they even allow it.

When looking for auctions in your area, check out the scheduling. Most times there will be a time for preliminary inspections where prospective buyers can check out the cars. You should definitely go to see if the auction is something worthwhile, and to check out the condition of the cars. While you probably won’t be able to test drive the cars, you can take advantage of the time you have to look over everything to see which cars are worth buying, and maybe check out the competition. Don’t set your heart on one car, especially if you know it’s going to be in high demand. Mark down three or four that you would be happy with buying.

Write down the vehicle ID numbers. When you get home, check them out on Carfax, even though this will cost you a minimal fee. This is worth doing to make sure you’re bidding on a quality car that was taken care of by the owners and has a clean history. When you go to the auction you’ll know which cars you’d really like to bid on (still don’t just pick one) and their history. Also find out what the cars you’re interested are worth so you know you’re not overbidding. Set a budget when bidding so you won’t bid more than the car’s worth or more than you can afford.

A car auction is a very good way to find an affordable car, and if you do your homework before going to one, you can be very successful and pleased with your purchase.

Car Auction Buying Secrets Revealed By Rob Emdon

Get to the auction early! I know that sounds really simple – but then buying a used car at a used car auction is not rocket science. You just have to bear in mind some simple and basic rules of thumb and you should be fine. So, get there early and have a good look around. Take your time finding the car you want and make sure you have your Kelley Blue Book, NADA guide, or Edmunds book if you're going to a used car auction to get an idea of the car’s value.

When you find a car you like, open all the doors, trunk and hood and find the VIN stickers and make sure they match. If they don’t the car is either stolen, was a wreck or has been rebuilt from different cars. In any event, check out the VIN number. Call a friend on your cell phone (or use your pocket PC) and get them to check it out online. There are several services that will give you a report online instantly. Remember the auctioneers have a vested interest in any information you get from them – so be prepared to verify your facts independently.

Of course, there are several types of ‘auction’ available to you. These include online auctions like eBay and yahoo, police and government car auctions, public auctions, insurance salvage auctions and wholesale auctions. Though the last two are normally only open to dealers.

Keep in mind that online car auctions are not so different to public car auctions. Once you have won your bid you are committed to buy. So it pays to run the same VIN checks and it may well be worth setting up an inspection period with the seller. So that you can have a certified mechanic inspect the car and determine if there is anything unsatisfactory about the car that was not disclosed at the auction.

Police and government car auctions are not really much different to public car auctions. In other words, you are not likely to get your car ‘dirt cheap’. You won’t be the only one there bidding for a ‘dirt cheap’ and before you know it you can easily end up paying way over the published price. For my money, bearing in mind that these cars may not have been maintained or driven for months, I’d rather not pay more than trade price for a car at one of these auctions. Otherwise, what’s the point of being there?

Finally, once you have purchased your car, and despite the pitfalls, there are genuinely thousands and thousands of happy customers out there – give serious consideration to taking out an extended car warranty.

It is important for you to know how to take advantage of used car auction to make the most out of your car buying. Here are some important tips for wiser spending on used car auction.

Before going to a used car auction, you have to be sure about the type of auction you are going into. Usually, car auctions are organized by the police, the government or auction lots. The cars sold here may come from the surplus of government vehicles, repossession, or impounding. You have to understand that you are buying cars as is, and there are no warranties.

Car Auction Web Sites - Bargains or Bogus By Dave Mallegg

Can anyone really obtain a decent car for $200, real bargains from government seized cars and other government seized merchandise?

Who can actually buy anything at genuine below-market prices? Better yet, who would actually sell anything knowingly at a real bargain if they could easily get more?

Honestly, I always assumed "government seized" was just a lot of "hype" and that at the end it would all just be an illusion. I thought the government was too bureaucratic and inefficient to organize any useful "auctions" that would actually allow us "ordinary citizens" to obtain a genuine "bargain", a super value low price high value car or other seized merchandise.

Well, it turns out it is the very "government bureaucratic inefficiency" that causes, or allows "us" to actually pay a low price for valuable cars and other merchandise. Not surprisingly, the government does not advertise or promote these auctions as extensively as they could. This is the key to the bargains. We all hear that prices are determined by supply and demand (unless there is a monopoly in place).

The government seizes so many cars and other merchandise that it can not dispose of it fast enough, and storage costs a lot of extra money. These auctions often have an inadequate supply of buyers for the amount of merchandise available, which keeps the prices low. Car dealers love to buy at these seized car and surplus auctions because almost no one knows about them. The dealers do not want competition so they keep quiet.

Besides offering cars and trucks, you can obtain residential and commercial real estate, business establishments, motor vehicles, boats, aircraft, jewelry, art, furniture, office equipment, computers, antiques and collectibles, along with other personal property forfeited under laws enforced by the US Department of Justice. The U.S. Marshals Service (USMS) alone sells about 20,000 items a year.

Some other sources of surplus bargains for cars, trucks, boats, aircraft and other vehicles, houses and real estate along with office equipment and military surplus are the Federal Supply Service, U. S. Department of the Treasury, U.S. Postal Service, Department of Defense Reutilization and Marketing Services, Internal Revenue Service, Department of Agriculture, Department of Energy, Tennessee Valley Authority, Department of Defense, HUD, Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, Office of Property Disposal, SBA, FDIC, Bureau of Land Management, and USACE-HAP.

Autos from the fleet of leased vehicles by the government agency, General Services Administration (GSA) are also sold at auctions after their 3-5 years leases expire. These vehicles are typically well maintained by government employees using them as their own work vehicles.

It is easy to see why it is so difficult to locate the date, time and place and what is being auctioned, particularly because they are randomly established from time to time at different locations only as different property becomes available. The auction can take place before very many people become aware of it. The next one is not held on a regularly scheduled basis. This can work to an astute buyer's advantage.

The best way to efficiently locate all the separate contacts for all these agencies enabling a buyer to track the various auctions is through a web site offering a comprehensive list of appropriate contacts.

Want to find out the best web site for obtaining all the contact information? Read the special report by author Dave Mallegg, the 50 year shopper for the all time best bargains. See for yourself at: http://www.theattractionfactor.com. It’s time to find the "real" below market sales of the century.

Understanding Classic Car Auctions By Andy Jefferson

Classic car auctions have always been a perennial favorite amongst car lovers, both young and old. So much so, that some of them willingly fork over huge sums of money just to get their hands on a rare classic car!

Now this article will shed some light for those of you who aren't very familiar with these types of auctions, so you might want to pay close attention!

First up, a classic car auction is a great event to check out all of the different types and models of rare cars belonging to different eras. But since the classic car market is a fairly tight niche, cars are often sold at high prices, compared to other car auctions. And because of this, most classic cars are often not sold at all.

Don't let this deter you from bidding on one though. A classic car at an auction will probably cost you less the amount you'd have to pay to a private owner. Besides, not all cars are sold at exorbitant prices; once in a while, you do come across a great bargain you can take advantage of - you'll just have to keep your eyes open!

There aren't that many classic car auctions around though, so you want to do some research. A good idea would be to flip through popular magazines and other publications that cater to this niche. You could also do a search on major search engine such as Google and Yahoo. Here are some great websites you might want to check out:

* http://www.classic-auctions.com/

* http://www.classic-carauction.com/index.cfm

* http://www.coys.co.uk

There's a ton of other classic car auction websites, so have fun browsing around!

As mentioned before, this is a pretty small niche market, so you'll need to be armed with some 'insider' secrets if you want to dominate it. Now this doesn't mean you've got to be an 'expert,' but a good knowledge on classic car auctions will help in the long run. For instance, it's always better to know exactly what type and model you're looking to buy, because problems could arise between the seller and you if you were to return the car after paying for it.

For the budding car auction enthusiasts out there who're on the lookout for great deals... well, here's good news for you: you can find a limited selection of very rare cars for rock-bottom prices, if you don't mind spending a good amount of time hunting around!

Now here's a fair warning - once you do find the 'ultimate' classic car, be prepared to participate in a frenzied and often raucous bidding war. If you're absolutely delighted with it, there'll be plenty of other classic car auction fans who're likely to feel the same way as you do.

Finally, you need to keep in mind that some sellers out there can sell you cheap replicas of actual classic cars. The best way to avoid being ripped off, is to take along an experienced classic car auction buyer. That way, you'd feel much safer when handing over the cash in exchange for a classic car!

Top Tips For Winning At The Seized Car Auction By Tim Shank

Buying cars at government auctions has become more popular in the last several years, not only because you can get the cars cheaper, but because with the advent of the Internet, the seized car auctions have been thrust into the limelight. These auctions have been going on for many years, and perhaps you have heard about them for a long time, but they were generally not well known as far as their locations and times unless they were in your local area. Seized car auctions are put on by the government in order to get rid of their inventory of automobiles that were seized from people who violated the law in one way or another. This is great for you because you can sometimes pick up these seized vehicles for pennies on the dollar. Here are some tips to help you to find the seized car auctions and to win at them.

First you should know where the best auctions are located. Try calling your local government office to see if they can direct you, or check out your local newspaper to see if there are ads for the seized property auctions. There are also some great websites out there that will list all of the government auctions so that you can choose which ones you would like to attend. You should be familiar with the Kelly Blue Book price on these cars, and if you aren't then take the time to get familiar with them. Generally the seized auto auctions open a couple of days early to give the bidders time to inspect the vehicles up close. Write down vin numbers and mileage so that you can check them out with a service such as Carfax.

By being diligent and, of course, knowing where these auctions are located not only can you be present at these auctions, but you can actually win the car of your dreams.

Useful Notes About Cheap Car Auctions By Andy Jefferson

Every year, there are thousands of opportunities to buy cars at rock-bottom prices. In fact, you could even snag a used car for a measly $500!

Now you're probably wondering - 'how on earth can I get a used car at this price?' Simple. Because of surplus and seizure laws, literally an avalanche of cars become the property of the US government. But since storage space for these cars is overwhelmingly exorbitant, the government, in order to get rid of them, auctions them off for dirt-cheap prices. This is a major advantage for you!

Many folks out there assume that cheap car auctions offer super bargains you won't find at other types of auctions. Well, this may be the case to a certain extent, but is not entirely true either. You see, even though plenty of cheap car auctions are held in the hope of attracting buyers, sometimes, the prices can remain the same as expensive models elsewhere.

Having said that, these types of auctions do have their plus points. But before we go into that, let's take a quick look at some of the disadvantages of a cheap car auction.

The Cons

Because of a massive customer base, (everyone loves things for cheap!) there'll be a lot more competition in terms of bidding prices. And sometimes, you just might end up spending more than what you'd pay at an 'average' car auction!

Also, you'd probably not find the best selection of cars in terms of variety and quality. Some of the cars though may be worth a close look, so it still might be worth taking some time off to head over to a cheap car auction.

If you happen to be searching only for a particular model, you could run into a brick wall, because some of the cheap car auctions out there often do not feature special types of cars. In this instance, you'd have more luck at an auction that specializes in the model you wish to have.

OK, now onto the good stuff - the advantages of cheap car auctions! To start with, the outlay is extremely low, so even if you don't end up buying a car, you can simply continue, without losing a ton of money in the process.

Yet another bonus is the fact that the sign-up fees is way lower than what you'd have to pay other for other types of car auctions.

Also, you could come across some neat options at a cheap car auction that you will not find anywhere else.

To round off this article... as always, it's best to get an expert to go along with you, so they can provide some sort of guidance on which types of cars to purchase. And when you think about it, it makes perfect sense, because their expertise and knowledge on cars can prove to be invaluable in the long run.

Cheap car auctions may not be everyone's 'cup of tea', but if you don't fancy all of those extra options and are only looking out for a simple car, then this may well be the best option you can settle for!

Buying cars at auction can be a very hit or miss type of venture, but here are few tips to help ensure you can make the best deal possible. Auctions for the most part sell cars which will have no warranty or guarantees attached, and you must be prepared to spend money on possible repairs to make the car work. It will be a good idea to have a residual supply of cash available to cover repairs, also to know what your limit is going to be for buying a car.

First tip, shop around. It is a great idea to go to several auctions or the same auction, if they are held at the same local regularly, and preview what is being sold. You will want to have a good idea of the quality of vehicle available at an auction in order to see of they have what is going to meet your needs. There is nothing worse than needing a good running vehicle and going to a junk car auction, or one where they are selling cars which need repair.

Second tip, be aware of price. Have a good idea of what you are looking for and check out the Kelly Blue Book value of the vehicle. Getting a great deal is one of the biggest benefits of most auctions, but be aware of what you are actually buying and do not allow it to become an overpriced venture.

Third tip, be persistent. There are going to be buyers who outbid you, don’t get discouraged. Keep in mind, car manufacturers make hundreds of thousands of each make and model car, very few are unique, and those that are usually go for much more than the average buyer can afford.

Whenever people are looking for a used car there are a few ways that they go about searching. Looking through local newspapers or on used car websites are two of the most popular methods. However, has visiting a used car auction every occurred to you?

The majority of people will say "no", or that they have briefly considered it but cast the idea aside. Visiting an auto auction can be somewhat daunting if you are not a car enthusiast or don't take along someone who knows what to look out for. After all, you don't want to buy a car that ends up with problem after problem and have to continually pay maintenance costs.

You can however find some great bargains at auto auctions providing you know what you are looking for. For many reasons it's possible to find a car that is ideal for you or just too good a deal to pass up. Dealerships often sell unwanted cars at auctions to make a quick sale.

When I first went to a car auction I was a little out of my depth. I wasn't sure what type of car I wanted, what I should look out for before entering the auction, and how much I should be willing to spend on any particular car that I find suitable. My second time of visiting an auto auction however involved taking a car dealer friend who knew the "ins-and-outs" of many car makes and models, including their value. If possible this is a good thing to do if you are seriously planning on bidding at an auction.

Many of the cars found at auto auctions are those that have been seized by banks and governments from people who haven't been able to pay outstanding loans. Due to this it's possible to find some real gems at auctions, including vintage cars and brand new models which still have warranty.

Be aware though that even if there are some great cars available it is very easy to get carried away with the bidding. Make sure you have your price limit and you stick to it. Auctions are designed in a way that it is easy to get drawn into the initial bidding at a low price, but as the price starts to get high it also very easy to put in an extra bid in an attempt to snatch the catch in the auction, only to be outbid, and then bid higher again. You can see how some people end up paying over the odds for cars at auctions. Conversely, it's also possible to find some real bargains.

Government auto auctions are a great thing for people looking to buy a car for very little money. These auto auctions are very popular and are a goldmine to the people who take advantage of them. You can very often find cars in good working condition for as little as $500. The cars auctioned off through the government auctions are usually selling cars that were seized in connection to the breaking of a law. In addition some cars may have been repossessed by collection agencies from somebody who could not pay what they owed. Even though the owners of the cars may have been in a little bit of trouble that does not mean that the cars are of any less value, they are just needed to be gotten rid of in a timely manner. Since they may need to sell the merchandise quickly usually the winning bid for a car is well below what the car is worth. That is why, in addition to people looking to purchase and drive inexpensive cars, there are even people that buy cars at government auctions and then will resell them for a profit.

Finding these auto auctions may prove tricky for people that have not had any prior experience. That is why they are companies around that will help you find them online for a nominal fee. These are very helpful services because you can go online and browse through their selection of cars. I highly suggest that you try one of them out because it takes out most of the searching involved in participating in government auctions. However you should do a little research on used cars before participating in the auction to prevent yourself from buying a lemon.

While these auto auctions can save you hundreds and maybe even thousands of dollars, there are still risks involved that is why I think you should look at the pocket car inspector. It is a great tool to help you see if there is anything wrong with a car both inside and outside. Anyone can use it with no previous car knowledge required.

Some Advantages Of Buying Nearly New Cars By Wayne Freeman

Buying a brand new car as compared to buying second hand or used cars entails more money and careful decision as to which car to purchase. The good thing is, you can always sell your current car for cash in order to payoff a portion of the selling price of the new car that you want to buy. This process of selling your current old car for cash is more beneficial than trading your cars for a better model or a nearly new car model or keeping your old car in your garage and then purchase a new car.

If you sell your old car for cash, you can use the proceeds to augment your current budget for purchasing a new car. It also minimizes your maintenance cost and garage requirement. On a positive note, instead of adding up to your garage and maintenance cost, it will even lessen the cost. This is because of the fact that new cars are easier and less expensive to maintain. A brand new car can last you several thousand miles of running before you could experience some slight engine problems. Also, new cars consume less fuel than older cars, thus saving you a lot of fuel money.

Now, before selling your current car, it would be wise to spend some amount of money for body paint retouching or waxing to give it a new and shiny look. This would attract more prospective buyers. If your car has some minor engine problems, it would be wise to have it checked up by a mechanic to fix the problem. You may also want to bring your car to a dealer’s showroom where it will be properly displayed for buyers to look at. Although this may lessen your proceeds, it will however produce faster result as compared to selling it on your own.

Once the disposal of your new car is settled, it is now time to shop for your new car. But first, ask yourself if you really want to purchase a brand new car or you can settle with a car that belongs into the nearly new category?. Nearly new cars are less expensive although the risk of ending up with a not so good car is still there.

If you’re looking to buy a new car, used car or even your dream car from an auction, this is a useful site for you. We’ve seen a lot of ads on TV promoting the car auctions in every state. Have you ever wondered where are those cars from? Every month thousands of cars are seized by the government or police, repossessed by the bank from drug dealers or people who have financial problems. I know it sounds a bit sad but the good news is the cars cost the government a fortune to store them and the vehicles would continue to depreciate in value.

That’s why they are trying to sell the cars as quickly as possible. The auctions are open to the public which means we can attend the auctions and pay much less than the book value of the cars. Some cars start bidding as low as $100. Today, everyone can buy these cars at much lower prices and the discount is up to 95% in many cases due to the increasing number of auctions online. One thing that you should always keep in mind for this car auction is never pay more than the amount that you have set in your head.

There will always be some kind of bidding war so please make sure that you won't get into it. Remember that there will be more cars for you to choose later on. One thing I do suggest is to bring an expert or try to get information about the car that you want as much as possible before you start bidding. Good luck and I hope you all get the car you really want with an excellent bargain price.
