E 320CDI Bids Low at Blackbushe Today 14 May 2004 (News)
A 2k mile 03 reg Focus 1.6LX wasn’t cheap at £7,700. Yet a 200 mile 04 reg virtually new Focus 1.6 Zetec automatic was a steal at £8,775. So was a Krypton green 1,369 mile 2002/02 Corsa 1.2 16v Club sold for £3,700. Bid the right money, know when to stop and Motability sales are getting to be happy hunting grounds.

Busy Auction at Blackbushe Today 3 Dec 2003 (News)
Down among the cheap cheapies, you could have had a perfectly decent 42k mile 96P Honda Civic 1.6LS automatic coupe for £2,350, and that was in the trader’s section. Or a 67k kilometre 95M Mitsubishi FTO 2.0 MIVECs Tiptronic auto with a whacked wing for £2,800. Or an ultra reliable 57k mile 97R Mazda 626 GSI for £2,100.
New SL500 Makes List at Top Car Today 28 Oct 2002 (News)
Other heavy metal included a 19,000 mile 98S Bentley Turbo R 400 LWB that bid to £41,750; a 4,000 mile 2000W Ferrari 465M automatic bid to £78,750; and a 31,000 mile 99T Porsche 996 Carrera 4 cabrio with hardtop, sold for £40,500. Downscale a bit, a 3,000 mile 02 reg Landcruiser 4.2 VX Active sold for £34,000; a 52,000 mile 2000X S320 CDI bid to £30,900; a 16,000 mile 2001Y SLK 320 auto sold for £24,500; a 45,000 mile 2000X BMW 740i bid to £23,400; a 60,000 mile TVR Chimaera 5.0HC bid to £22,500; a 5,000 mile 2001/51 Jaguar XJ8 3.2 Executive stuck at a disappointing £22,300; a 56,000 mile 99S AMG E55 (like Quentin Willson had) sold for £20,400; a 46,000 mile 2001X C320 Avant Garde sold for £19,800; and a 60,000 mile 97P BMW 840 CI coupe sold for £14,500.
Auction Prices Softer Today 26 Jun 2002 (News)
And a 2000W 27,000 mile 2000W 318CI coupe sold for £14,500, also behind. Yet a 69,000 mile 99T Jaguar S Type 3.0 automatic went over-book to sell at £13,000 to a trader, probably because it was the right metallic blue for a customer and had the right spec of leather, CD and wood-rim wheel. Ford Focuses continue to defy gravity.
Updated Punto Range, from £6,499 4 May 2002 (News)
Standard features of all include a facility to operate the electric front windows after the key has been taken out of the ignition; and an intelligent windscreen wiper mechanism which is activated automatically immediately after windscreen washer fluid is sprayed.

Another Yaris Makes Top Money at Auction 26 Oct 2001 (News)
Even Skodas are shifting for the right money, but then a silver 2000W 32,000 mile Octavia 2.0 GLXi automatic estate for £7,050 looks like a lot of VAG car for the money. Last, but not least, £6,300 bid for a 24,000 mile Radiant red Focus 1.8 Zetec with climate pack looked low, but not for this car.
105mpg 4-seater Toyota 2 Oct 2001 (News)
The exhaust system includes a Diesel Particulate-NOx Reduction System and emissions conform to Euro IV for petrol engines. An idling stop mode automatically shuts off the engine when the vehicle is stopped, and regenerative braking technology is included to achieve higher efficiency. While the use of improved Toyota Super Olefin Polymer and biodegradable plastic greatly improve recyclability.
Late Summer Surge at Auction 17 Aug 2001 (News)
Even lumpy E46 BMWs are getting down to the £10k bracket with an air-conditioned 91,000 mile 99T 318iSE selling for its reserve of £10,400. While £9,525 looked about right to me for a 59,000 mile 97R Mercedes C240 Elegance automatic. But big money was there by the mattress-full for clean cars steeped in status: £9,400 for a 52,000 mile 98R MGF with a hard-top; £11,050 for a 29,000 mile 98S E36 BMW 318iS coupe; £12,350 for a 29,000 mile 97R BMW Z3 1.9 Roadster; £12,750 for a 13,000 mile 2001X Alfa 156 1.8TS with alloys and a/c (more than an import costs new); £15,050 for a 78,000 mile 99T BMW 528iSE auto; £18,400 for a 46,000 mile 99T Jaguar S-Type 3.0 V6SE auto; £24,000 for a 28,000 mile 2000X BMW 330CI; £26,000 for a 9,000 mile 2000X Mercedes E320 CDI Elegance auto; and £28,000 for a 16,000 mile 2000X Mercedes E320 Avantgarde 7-seater estate.
R reg under £3,000; P reg under £2,000 9 Mar 2001 (News)
But, strangely enough, cheap part-exchanges were not cheap with £310 paid for a 92,000 mile 90G Escort 1.4 automatic; £1,925 paid for 35,000 mile 92K Astra 1.4iLS; £290 paid for a 90,000 mile 90H Sierra 1.8 Sapphire; £2,800 paid for a 49,000 mile 93L Mazda 323i GLX F-Type; £800 paid for a really doggy 82,000 mile 90H Carina II 2.0 Executive and £1,800 paid for a smart 72,000 mile 95M Rover 214Si facelift model.

Used Pick-Up Buying Guide: Ford Ranger 2011-2020 22 Nov 2019 (News)
Check the bodywork carefully for any scratching or poorly finished paintwork. A 2018 recall relating to the automatic transmission relating to early models from September 2011 through to March 2012 noted the gearbox may receive an incorrect signal, changing from sixth to first. If you buy an early automatic, make sure this has been investigated. CV joints are a known to fail, so check for any knocking or rattling when driving, and get underneath and have a look at the condition of the covers. Euro6 models from 2016 onwards may have problems with their selective catalytic reduction system, which results in excessive consumption of AdBlue.
Mondeo II For £1,600 at Auction Today 13 Apr 2007 (News)
So once again, plenty of sensibly priced 3 year old automatics in the Motability section. Even better value, maybe, was a 26k mile semi-automatic 2005/54 reg Smart Forfour 1.5CDI Passion, sold for £5,800. But it’s questionable why Citroen saw fit to reserve three year-old 06 reg C1 Rhythm 5-drs with 6k to 10k miles at something like £5,400 when anyone can have a new Vibe 3-dr for £5,450.
DISHONEST JOHN'S GUIDE TO SERVICE SCAMS 6 Oct 2001 (News)
The Major Component Confusion Never, ever repair a major component. If, for example, an automatic gearbox has a problem DO NOT INVESTIGATE THE CAUSE. Instead, simply quote for fitting an entirely new automatic gearbox. The fault may be nothing more than a duff solenoid in the valve block, but don't waste time with a £200 job when there is much more profit to be gained from fitting a new autobox at £1,750 plus.

Hugely Varied Entry to Historics September 23rd Classic Car Auction 12 Sep 2017 (News)
Half car, half truck, this '67 was based on the 'mid-size' Chevelle platform so isn't as big as some of its predecessors. It runs a 195HP 283ci V8 with three on the tree automatic transmission and is estimated at £14,000 to £18,000. And now a car for anyone interested in something quintessentially English, to the extent that the eccentrics in Malvern re-introduced the model a few years ago.
