  eBay Auction Report – 12th June 2005 16 Jun 2005 (News)
  It was unclear whether there would be any tax owed on the car once it was registered with someone other than the importer, which led to low bidding, despite the good condition it was in. A couple of French cousins also made very small amounts. A 1992J 5dr Citroen ZX 1.4 Advantage made £190, whereas a 1991J Peugeot 309 1.1 Trio with an MOT about to run out made £121. Finally, a sorry looking 1993K, 88k mile, Rover Metro 1.1 Quest 3dr with no tax or Mot, a duff battery, but the potential to run made £50.

  But there were plenty of mega mile cheapies, such as a 139k mile 2002 MINI Cooper for £1,375, a 125k mile 2005 206 1.6HDI GTI for £1,075, a 125k mile 2005 Toyota Corolla 1.6 for £1,200, a 151k mile 2008 BMW 318i Touring for £3,500 and a 159k mile 2006 Audi A6 2.7TDI Multitronic Avant for £4,350. The cheapest car I actually saw sell was a 97k mile 2001Y Citroen Xsara Picasso 1.6SX in respectable shape for £325.   I guess the message of the day is that while you’ll be paying more for your replacement car, you’ll be getting less for your leggy part-exchange.

  Roaring Start to Cholmondeley Pageant of Power 15 Jul 2011 (News)
  Visitors can see the remarkable Oaktec Honda Insight rally car (banned from competing for being too fast), the all-electric Nissan LEAF hatchback, Volkswagen's latest BlueMotion products and the brand-new 62.8 mpg BMW 520d EfficientDynamics (making its first UK public outing). The area also features vehicles from Jaguar, MINI, Ford, Citroen, Mercedes-Benz and Mitsubishi. One of the Pageant of Power's many claims to fame is its live-action combat power display. The British Army and the RAF will be using the estate grounds and airspace to conduct a combat power assault on a manned 'enemy' position situated directly in front of the watching crowds.
