Dadstoys Posted February 20, 2008 Report Share Posted February 20, 2008 Not sure you can validate a registered keeper - surely that info is only on the dvla/police computers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Sorted, and thanks for the link. Bit of a rush today- Enfield auctions and then up to Bedford, debit card loaded up- but there could be a surprise turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Auctions- I'm starting to hate them. Bid on 3 cars 330 d MS, 325 d MS Touring and even a 120 d MS, missed out on all of them. The 120d MS was a 5 door 06 with 40k miles, it had 3 service stamps and was very, very well looked after. It went for £13,700 (or £14,500 after buyers premium). Silly thing is you could buy one at a dealers for about £500 more with the secuirity of prep, service and fault free Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruiser647 Posted February 21, 2008 Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 MS?? Auction bidding -people do get carried away with the 'Must have it' mentallity. Messes the prices up a bit. Better luck next time Chri5. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm Chris Posted February 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2008 Correct M Sport What happend to the old days when a mate would buy the works 1 year lease exec car (at 40% of cost) and sell it to you for a few beers Anyone know of any large fleet firms that will sell direct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Who was putting the cars through the auctions?? Ring a few of them and ask if they have anything ready, they may sell you direct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calm Chris Posted February 22, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 Inchscape and Accident Exchange are the big ones, neither seem to want to deal with joe public. Might have something to do with selling 1000's of cars a year and not needing the hassle of direct sales, viewings etc I'll bide my time and while I do, hope the market gets tighter and prices drop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newbie123 Posted February 22, 2008 Report Share Posted February 22, 2008 My 120D M Sport on contract hire goes back to BMW next month(well straight to auction I imagine), before my new A5 arrives . I've had BMW ring me a couple of times asking me if I'd like to buy it off them, out of interest I asked for a price and was told it would be £16,127. That's for a two year old car with 12k miles.
