Yes, but what about the tractor?

I don’t pretend to have the faintest idea about Redneck Racing, but surely a 1996 Astra is not ‘pre 90’? I assume that refers to date, given that banger types have a particular fondness for destroying old stuff? 

It's more a 'spirit of pre-90' type thing, letting cars get raced that wouldn't normally have a hope amongst the newer stuff (in the case of under 1600cc racing this is mostly '00s Astra and Focus nowadays).

Manorpark Classic currently have this 84k mile manual V6 MX-6 going for another 1.5 days sitting at 100 quid. Failed its MOT on emissions (could be an easy fix like O2 sensor at that mileage) and a balljoint cover but the estimate is extremely reasonable at 300-700 quid.

Looking at the MOT history this was regularly tested by the most anal tester.

So "estimate £300 - £700" is £1020-£1420 including the fee+vat.

Also:

"Collection: The Buyer's Premium is due within 48 hours of the Auction concluding. We will then put you in touch with the Seller directly to organise collection and payment of the Hammer Price within 7 days."

I've read that but it cannot actually mean you have to pay 600 quid on top, that would make auctioning off cheap cars like this completely unviable. I'm hoping it means the buyers fee applies from an auction result of 600 quid upwards, but yeah...

Speak to @scaryoldcortina about his MG TF buying experience

Given their time listing it with staff, administrative and business costs I expect that's correct.

It would be significantly more (like at least double of what the next most expensive one would be for buyers) than any other classic car auctions I'm aware of, including those that do all the work for you. I guess it's one way to keep lower end cars that don't make at least a few grand out of the auction pool. In the case of the MX-6 both the seller and buyer will lose out big time.

Golden wheels and these terrible stick on covers for the steering wheel should be all the red flags anyone needs.

He'll want to keep the battery for his next one, too, I imagine.

Wouldn't surprise me that it applies to all sales.
