  Plenty of Cheap Cars at Auction Today 4 Sep 2002 (News)

It needed a new tyre, a bit of paint on the valence and a timing belt but was a lot of car for the money. Think that was cheap and there were plenty of other nice surprises in store. A 59,000 mile 2000W Mazda Premacy 1.8Gxi MPV for £4,600, a 60,000 mile 98S Honda Legend 3.5 V6 auto with all the bits bid to £6,575; a 27,000 mile 2001X Volvo 2.4T (200bhp) auto bid to just £11,450; a 34,000 mile 2000W Galant 2.5V6 auto with leather sold for £6,600; an 18,000 mile 2000V Renault Kangoo 1.4RXE Combi sold for £3,925 and, wait for it, a 2000W (didn’t catch the mileage) KIA Clarus 2.0GSX sold for a mere £2,650.
