Slappy Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 0040 Thursday rollcall! I'm still in for, err, tonight! With the added jeopardy that I will have had a job interview in the afternoon and should things prove successful very quickly, I may require a mile muncher for daily duties....

Stanky Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 I've been allowed out to play so I'll see you guys there at about 6.30. I'll bring a few copies of the patented AS auction fun pack with me. doobietoo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanky Posted October 22, 2015 Author Share Posted October 22, 2015 Another blinder of an evening had by all. There were bargains galore to be had tonight, Slappy and DoobieToo will be along shortly with photographic evidence, but here were my highlights 1. A white Punto with no MOT went for a paltry £30 2. Bargain* of the night was a working, MOT'd to next June (no, really - wait til you see the pics) facelift mk1 mondeo with 111k and a fuckton of gaffer tape went for a 'cheaper than a night in a hostel' TEN QUID. 3. A reasonably tidy Hyundai accent moar doar with hyperactive alarm was had away for £25 4. Got people to move? A 7 seat Seat Alhambra with 191k could have been yours for one hundred pounds. The first 3-figure sale of the night. 5. My choice for 'workmans wheels' was a leggy Freelander which hit an earth shattering £800 and put me dangerously out of contention in the game. 6. a tidy MGTF which was mysteriously listed as a 4-door (we couldn't find the other two) went for a paltry £325, but was the wrong end of the summer 7. Bizarre one of the night, a BMW 120d with a quarter of a million miles on the clock made a scarcely believeable £2300. Coming, clocked, to a forecourt near YOU soon. 8. the most unloved of all Mercedes, an A160 pez auto made £425 9. A very nice Mazda 6 Sport only scraped £550 and looked a right bargain it was agreed 10. A mega-early Mk5 escort saloon on an 'L' plate in reasonable condition and with MOT to next paril made a painfully drawn-out £150. It had been tickled with the welder on the sills but looked pretty good. It had reputedly only done 19k too. 11. The shit vectra from last time again failed to garner a bid at £100. 12. A meriva diesel with 110k looked a right bargain at £400 13. A dizzler mondeo mk3 with 160k miles and MOT to next year and at least one missing hubcap made £300 and a strong contender for the 'Dirty Diesel' category 14. A Honda CRV with 140k hailing from the year of our lord 2002 looked like a mega bargain at £350 15. An Astra mk4 which looked like it had been involved in a hit n' run (await pictures) failed to get any bids, even with free blood* on the bonnet and bumper. 16. A late entry, a tidy kettle Rover 45 with Levva and giffer scuffs on the fron bumper garnered an inflation-busting £150 and looked a steal. There were more Peugeot 206's and Focuseseseses thank any man should see in a lifetime, I think some of them came through several times but most didn't sell. The game added much excite, with positions traded to the bitter end. I believe that I won by £200, with a grand total spent* on 6 steeds of ill repute was £2100. The Motorway monster category was abandoned as there were only 2 eligible cars, neither of which sold. We tried very hard to get Slappy to buy something deeply unsuitable for his potential new job commute, the highlight for me being a 7-series BMW in full drug-dealer spec including tinted windows and black rimz yo. Sadly this didn't sell, presumably the local dealers knew who'd had it repo'd by the fuzz and didn't fancy being pulled by association. Gentlemen, over to you for visual improvement CGSB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slappy Posted October 22, 2015 Share Posted October 22, 2015 An Update! The white Punto was bought by 1 of the site drivers there who just so happens to be on the Faceache group.... Anyway, it apparently has working city steering, and so he's gonna break it. The Canary yellow SLK went around too, and from the same source I get the feeling it's been there a lot longer than a month... A thread is useless without pictures so....

And a couple that didn't attract Skankys attention Kia santa fey didn't get a bid at £700 neither did the Nissan blah import with a "big boy" exhaust Finally my favorite of the night which luckily didn't go through the auction therefore preventing me putting a bid on and possibly loosing my nuts was this primer grey Volvo trigger and Stanky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doobietoo Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 oh and Skanky won the competition mainly by picking more cars that actually sold.... lol...

The copyright holder approves all and every change that makes things more fun, always feel free to tweak it to the local conditions.At Cannock we tend to get at least half a dozen vans and 4x4s in each auction plus a few knackered BMWs and Jags for big engined stuff, 3 lite S-types never make any money. If you want to be very random then go for odd classes like, red paint, all 4 tyres the same make, has a tape player, etc doobietoo and Stanky 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Bluejeans Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 £2500 for a shagged out 120d. Now I know the world has gone mad. Stanky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanky Posted November 6, 2015 Author Share Posted November 6, 2015 Right, following a fat-fingered speed dial call to Doobie on my way home from work, discussions were had about how we ought to get the ball rolling for the next auction extravaganza. How is everyone fixed for the 19th November? A week next thursday that is. If prices have plummeted as much between the last one ad this one as they did between September and October they will be paying people to take shit cars away, except for the 160k vectra with the oil leak which is £100 come hell or high water. Any good for others? I'll bring along a wad of auction fun packs and we ought to think up a replacement for the motorway mong-ster category as options were a bit limited last time. Any suggestions? Automatic Ambler? Over 150k miles 'leggy lovely'? Reposession reprobate? Oh, can the usual suspects PM me their email addresses and I'll get copies of the auction sheet sent over tout suite so they can be prepared in advance.

doobietoo Posted November 6, 2015 Share Posted November 6, 2015 Yah more auction fun.....can I suggest reducing the cc on the motorway muncher to 1900 and replacing the van category with a "future autoshite" one so for 2005 and younger cars only.....

mercrocker Posted November 7, 2015 Share Posted November 7, 2015 Will really, really try to be there. Being as I am probably the closest and haven't actually made it yet.

Stanky Posted November 7, 2015 Author Share Posted November 7, 2015 Added jeopardy of the Nissan needing an MOT between now and then, and even if it passes it really needs a gearbox. If there is an N15 with a GA14 or GA16 engine there I'll be all over it like a tramp on chips. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slappy Posted November 10, 2015 Share Posted November 10, 2015 I certainly won't be buying anything, my insurance renewal is on the 20th.... But I'll be there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanky Posted November 10, 2015 Author Share Posted November 10, 2015 Surely that means its the perfect opportunity to buy something? Just think, no policy amendement fees, full years NCB, wide choice of quality* vehicles* to choose from? The auction fun pack has been updated to reflect the chod which has been on offer the last couple of outings, so anyone who wants one in advance of the 19th PM me your email address - I'll bring a few extras with me on the day just in case.

Stanky Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Next outing is next thursday (19th November) and the usual assembly time is about half six to allow for frantic auction fun pack completion before they start driving them through the hall. Look for the shifty looking group of guys perving over terminally broken tat. Oh, yeah, that covers everyone there pretty much.

chaseracer Posted November 15, 2015 Share Posted November 15, 2015 I think the Midland Massiv auction aficionados should seriously consider raiding this (concrete) field of broken dreams.
