cost of living crisis finally has effect

The one thing I miss is going to the auction rooms but your videos certainly make up for it and the professional commentary is spot on on! Thanks Lee

Said it before but the new price format on screen is ideal, I was checking back before

The Saab 9-3 was the best car there👍

Would love to hear your comments , but due to to auction noise, we cannot hear well. When you speak very directly into the mic, we can hear clearly.So sorry to criticise your superb auction coverage.

Stay clear of wet belt ecofails.

The rising cost of petrol, insurance, road tax, repairs compounded by the recession is having an adverse effect……… this usually starts with the car market and ends with mass layoffs and a property market crash over the next 18-24 months

Advisories for subframe corrosion last couple of MOT's on the VW Up and funnily enough first registered in Scotland!

Hello Again, Really like the format, very interesting prices plus good vehicle information. Regards, RichardA.

Eco tick tick BOOOOM

" tickers a nob" 😅 can't beat adding a laugh to video 😅 great, as always 👍

I would have loved that saab

I had a red Mito diesel back in 2012 -ex demo which I stuck 30,000 miles on in a year. Took it from Gloucester to Helensburgh in Scotland and tankful to tankful it did an incredible 81mpg

when I used to buy at auction, if someone got a deal the auctioneer would say "Cheap car!" high praise.

Iv just sold my car and I'm not buying another its the bus for me now iv invested in cough sweets cold remedies and a nice rain coat cars are to much to run and I hate mot blues

Loved the Saab 9-3 Aero, I was looking to buy one last year, having owned two og 9-5 cars and I like the over engineered cars that the Swedes produced, despite the GM bean counters trying to cut costs. Couldn't find a good one, so bought a well looked after Honda CR-Z instead.

Made me smile dont want white or red or anything with paintwork first three cars white and red and need paint 😅😅😅

That VW UP looks very much like the 59 plate Daihatsu Sirion that I bought in 2015... I think I paid £750 then... but when it came to parts, it was a mare, as Daihatsu had pulled out of Europe just after making that model, which was a real shame.

That saab would have been an awesome buy

Cameras and lenses absolutely tanking in price too. Nothing moving. UK's gone skint.

I need to take a trip up North to that G3 auction . That old Galaxy and poor paint work Zafira would have sold as a quick flip , ideal dog walking cars , carboot sales car , tip run car . You got some good buys there Lee , good luck mate 👍

Just as I'm sitting down to eat my tea too! Great timing.

Huge difference between book price and retail prices customers always losing try and save up and buy a car private and get it checked out before purchase will save you thousands!!

Top knot prancing around the cars, there's one spanner at every auction it seems

@ 23:39 I noticed the lady from the rostrum pointing. I used to also put coffee cups on the tow bars at the auctions, it’s a bugger if you walk into one whilst cutting between the cars. I’ve saw loads of traders do it.

You did well on the purchases today, all easy fixes if they need it. It's a shame you hadn't noticed the VW Up as I think that would have been a good seller, hopefully quicker than the Mii you had.

Could you show us around the Maserati it looks awesome.

that red Vauxhall zafira the line down the back quarter panel was from a past repair where it got cut and had it replaced and they did not do a good enough job putting it together and is showing the gap with body filler and i looks like body filler on the side also

I was shouting at my phone for you to. Bid on that Up! 😂 thanks for another auction video

i bought a 15 plate ecoboost a few years ago with only 48000 on it,i knew about the wetbelts but thought it would be safe for a few thousand miles..wrong,pickup pipe got blocked and blew the engine..lesson learned

The VW Up was a steal Lee. Not to worry m8, can't win em all. Great content again m8. Looking forward to seeing the pitch walk this week.

I can't see the sense of running two auctions at the same time.

Great vlog Lee thanks

Just subscribed love watching your videos so much information plus some banter most of all found your content honest well done top watching

"What can I say that's good about this? Someone will like it. Yes, someone will want it. Good luck finding him."

That saab 9-3 was amazing. Thank you for the content and videos.

Love the auction ones and like you said the Saab what a buy for someone

The cheapest Skoda Fabia 1.2 TSi 2013 I could find in Australian ads was AUD6,990 (GBP 3600) That is a hell of a difference!

That red Astra was a bargain

Has it got something to do with people realising a car is incredibly expensive to run. That there are other things they want to spend their money on.

The Scirocco had an interesting number plate, an additional good selling point ..

Just watched your vlog for the C1 Aygo 107 cars. Im quite possibly after one of these in the near future. Great advice. I have subscribed many thanks

You should have got that fabia a few friends have them with 0 problems with them would have been great car for someone

Another interesting and entertaining vid!

You can set your watch by that 2.0 Jag diesel engine failing. Timing jumps and its toasted . Unless its had a full new chain kit fitted, its on its last gasp at 120K. Its around £2300 for a new chain, engine and gearbox out job if you want it guaranteed .

And yet, despite low auction prices and borderline scammy part-ex payouts, dealership prices have never been higher for everyday cars. "BuT mAh InFlAtIoN...!"

Jaguar was not that cheap when selling on auto trader £2999 for 2016 yes a bargain for private buyer but could have a whole lot of issue if it 2.0 diesel

Love the auction videos! Kindest regards 🇨🇦🇨🇦

Thanks Lee youve made my mind up i was looking at f pace Jags 2.0 diesels but i unsure about the reliability they look great but thanks for the heads up.

I really enjoy the auction videos, never having been to one, it is a new experience for me to see the bids being placed. I really liked the denim blue Fabia estate, it looked very well cared for, shame about the mileage though. Great video Lee❤.

Brilliant 😂says doesn't want white or anything paint and the first 3 cars 2 are white and worse one is an ecoboom and a red one that needs paint 🤔🙈🤣🤣not sure if that was deliberately done or just coincidence 😁

I would love. more technical stuff on your cars faults etc

Some prices god plenty going thru . Love watching these . Great

Im currently looking for a newer car. One thing i will avoid is anything with a wet belt. I just dont want that stress

Lee, I have recently bought an E51 Elgrand similar to the black one. I wanted to upgrade from my Mazda Bongo. I bought a high spec one with warranty and I'm first UK owner, I've already been under it with Lanoguard etc and secondary cats replaced with stainless steel through pipes. Having driven it now for a couple of months I find it just an awesome car, and that V6 can shift even though it is a two tonne van. Definitely thirsty, drive one if you get a chance though!!

why would i buy off a forecourt when i can buy 2 grand under list and get it checked over and fixed for a .fraction of their profit ? or do it yourself if you have the skill.

I like these car auction videos. Great 👍

Lee, show us what you buy... Because in my opinion you miss out on alot.. But then what do I know.. F all.. Just show us what you buy. Then the journey of the vehicle.. Maybe change your video set up... Show us what you buy.. Then..show us the story... (nice 3 buys)

Shame about that red VW UP . 5 door as well. Comes from the Edinburgh area. Would the auction entertain you if you put in a higher bid than £1600 or would that be cheeky ?

Had a 2.0 jag diesel last year, took loads of ads to sell, eventually went for best bid on e Bay, obviously lost on it, wouldn't buy another, chain goes at 90k, then it's very expensive.

I would have given my left bolluck for that Saab

It would be better for G3 to rearrange there auction pitch so you don't have to listen to the other auctioneer. It must be off putting I think I would get fed up of the noise and leave.

I wonder how many electric cars will hit the markets at 10 to 12 years old without severe battery problems

No white cars today, first two to look at in white 🤣

Great video fella,thanks.

I'm surprised to see many of my petrol-head friends moving over to electric cars, seems they don't want to get stuck owning a diesel or petrol car as the prices are dropping the nearer we get to 2030. Be good to see EV's going through the auctions at lower prices.

Hello mate. I'm after buying a small van at auction. Where's best to go. Never done it before

You should of grabbed the VW UP fella.

Caught that late??? You was standing right there Lee 😂

800 quid for a belt….

Lol the first two cars were white no white cars you said 😉😂.

Just thinking & you mentioned it Lee regarding the VW up , with the car besn provisional you if possible should have gone to enquires etc & said if owner or dealer garage won't accept the bid would they if i offered £200 above what they did. Basically same as gazumping. You also i thought should have bid on the 14 plate Kia Sportage which miles weren't too high & only £1900.& the 13 plate Renault Clio at £1700 . Obviously i know you have both isn't the kia already sold though. The Sasb 93 sportwagon couldn't see the front but an 07 possibly a facelift, if it is it looked just like my 09 sportwagon Vector CTDI even same colour & wheels. Bet that had been traded in as the cost of the 2.0T engine is outrageous its £700 or so.

Good video Lee can’t really hear you in the auction tho just a lot of noise really, think it’s just this auction as the older videos were fine for me

I was going to have a bid on that Nissan Elgrand but forgot to place my proxy! 🤦🏼‍♂ Looks like it will go again though so 🤞

If id have been at that auction that saab would be outside my house

MGZ3 thing cheap. Never trusted it’s a seller. Didnt know not reliable

Mg3 I just a maestro from back in the day

great video - thanks

As a car dealer why you complaining that the prices are low at the auction, means your make more profit when you sell. What is funny when you look at private sellers, try to sell vehicles without an mot or an mot with a month left wanting top money for it. Only 5 years ago a vehicle with out an mot was and still is worth next to nothing. An vehicles with a month left on the mot was just a little better. The only thing your doing is basically telling people that are after a new second hand vehicle is goto a car auction and your get a great deal. As the prices are low. When in reality it’s taken the last 5 years for the prices at auctions to come down to the prices they are meant to be. Auction prices have always been about supply and demand. Ie the higher the demand the more you will pay. But the auction have also been take over by these multinationals companies that have tried to corner the markets and over price the vehicles. An vehicle traders have let them do it by going to these multinationals company run auctions. Instead of sticking to the smaller auctions which have now gone out of business in the most because traders stopped going to them, by buy from the over priced multinationals company auctions. Second hand Vehicle prices will keep dropping over the next two years.

Hi, if a car is being sold for 2000 pound, how much you end up paying to the auction in total including their fee and VAT? Thanks

Great Video Lee

Love watching your videos

I’ve driven hundreds of different cars, and the 3 MG’s I’ve driven are the top three worst cars I’ve ever driven, so that’s saying something - and I’ve driven fiat 500’s & plenty of very poor Peugeots in my time which are also horrendous. The Saab and the Seat would be good buys

not a bad haul

Ordered a js2000 from your link. I hope it's as good as you say😊👍

Just stumbled across this, great vid, I’ve subbed ya, where do u get the valuations from, the fair, good, retail figures etc, thanks

what's stopping normal citizens going to auction house to buy a car for cheap?

Doesn;t want to buy white cars. Proceeds to look at white cars 😆

Pretty interesting that thanks i went there about 20 years ago or so just for fun... any chance you could do one on motorbike auctions i saw a few there in the background ? thanks

good vlog that Lee 🙂

Nobody wants right side driver🤣

Lee, should buy more Mondi's lioke

I've literally just bought a used ford focus with a 1.0 ecoboost engine then came accross this video ..and reading some of the comments has me very worried 😢

I may be wrong, but I'm sure those ssangyong rextons are a mercedes underneath.

Can't put 50% of those cars on London roads, due to ULEZ.

Where do ubget the clean average and retail prices from?

Not surprised really if they are going to pay per mile, and then getting rid off all cars in 6 year's time.

Costs going crazy low at auctions. Prices on forecourt still go up.

a good video thoroughly enjoyed that

What was the waffle on the speakers about in the background
