More Cheap Cars at Auction Today 9 Jul 2007 (News)
A pair of 06 Colt CZ1 5-drs, each with 8,500 miles sold for £4,700 each and a 6k mile 06 3-dr for £4,200. Leggy Honda Accord diesels are now sensible money for cars of better quality than contemporary MB C Class. BMW E90s aren’t so much any more. But prices paid for a par of 530ds would seem to indicate that maybe the bigger cars now have some RHD export potential.
Panic Prices to Get Cars Gone 5 Oct 2002 (News)

Usual Early November Standoff at Car Auction Today 7 Nov 2012 (News)
It’s the time of year when vendors try to hang out for good money but traders know they will have to drop within a couple of weeks or face having their money tied up in cars for 6 – 8 weeks over the crucial financial year end. So don’t pay too much attention to the ‘sold’ prices in the list below. Think of them more as a vendor’s wish list than what the cars are actually worth.
