cort16 Posted January 4, 2016 Share Posted January 4, 2016 There's a cafe in the place for greasy burgers and the like although it's really busy on these Saturdays with arthur daily types trying to bulk buy 40 left hand drive chinese microwaves. Their car selection is usually a mixture of half decent stuff and ropey old shite. There's also usually some interesting LCV stuff. The last time I was there they had an airport fire tender. http://www.wilsonsauctions.com/view-auction/Dalry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M'coli Posted January 5, 2016 Share Posted January 5, 2016 Sounds great! I won't be able to make it though. I used to love going to the auctions in Graham Square, and bought my first car there. Bought my next one from London Road - a Lada Riva 1200 - mainly because I couldn't face riding the 30 miles back home...should've just got the train!
