Did anyone see what the 73 RS got bid to ?
£462,500 from memory. Not on the Sold page - does that mean didn’t reach reserve?will_ said:

Was interested in a car finishing tonight, and I note that the seller hasn’t answered a single question that potential bidders asked. Find the whole thing very odd.
Perhaps they just see its hit the reserve, so why bother?!
The idea of entering a car in a auction is so you don't have to get involved and let the auction do the work,Perhaps they just see its hit the reserve, so why bother?!
Also if the owner states something in print that is misleading either on purpose or innocently could have consequences
for them after the auction if the buyer is unhappy with his or her purchase
so i suppose the less said the better and as you say if it's made the reserve why bother and complicate things but do agree
it does look like there's something to hide

I've been interested in the DB9 with the engine noise. A couple of days ago I asked CC to see if the vendor is willing to provide some information/evidence from their Aston specialist about the source of the engine noise (advert said it's probably just tappets). Surely the vendor might have been interested in the cause?I know that I would be straight on to the AM specialist if my V12 started to make strange noises Perhaps they just see its hit the reserve, so why bother?!
The Bamford Rose recent video of DB9 engine issues suggests £14-20k for an engine rebuild following the 'dreaded DB9 ticking'. This is too big a risk for me. But I haven't heard back from CC regarding my request to the seller.
Very little - HPI check and MOT check. Why would they do any more? They simply provide a platform, the actual sale is a matter for the buyer and seller. "Any dispute with respect to the sale of any Auction Lot shall be resolved between the Buyer and Seller and without the participation of Collecting Cars."

No doubt the legals are all tied down, but if I, for example, bought a damaged/written-off car, which wasn't declared in the description, which is written by CC, then I'd be rather pissed off.webstercivet said:

Probably doesn't get as much scrutiny on the £1-10k cars that Winchester Cars normally sells.Gassing Station | Supercar General | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
