This brought back some memories, my brother and I used to go to auctions twice a week in the 90s early 2000s. He'd sit at one end and I'd sit the other then we'd bid on anything we liked the look of. One vehicle came in and I was bidding on it, 350, 4, 450, 5 until I won it at 950. Walked over all pleased with myself to tell my brother and he said I was bidding on that too😂 we'd both been bidding against each other ffs, like something you'd see in only fools and horses.
🤣
Proper planning and preparation prevents 9155 poor performance.
Did the same but with a boat 🛥,,everyone stopped at £1000 we both carried on another £1000😢
@shauncorless8965 classic at least we have stories to tell 🤣
I saw this at Blsckbushe husband and wife took a boxster from 27k to £36k before the auctioneer said are you together they nodded and banged hammer down it was hilarious ☺️
Lee I love your channel ,but when you are at the Auction if you kept slightly to the right and kept the Auction Board in the top left of your shot we could see the bids 😊
Thanks Lee. I could watch your walk arounds and listen to the lingo all day long. You make it all so entertaining and real. Thanks from Oz.
Glad you enjoyed it
Agreed! I want to come to the auction with you! 😅
Always enjoy your auction days Lee, 👍
Thanks Micky 👍
Poor wife Nicola, she's not getting another Rangie if you have your way lol. I do love these nice long videos because the way you do them, it doesn't feel as long.
Thanks, not sure how I manage to make a near hour long video feel like 10 mins but your right they seem to fly bye 🤣🤣
32:30 he knows his market!! Clever guy. Fair play mate
One very quiet auction, not like the old days it would have been packed out with people, well done the big corporates.
Can’t thank you enough Lee for your response in comments to my questions and your fast replies.. Thank you Lee 👍👍 top fella and love watching your channel 👍👍
I put my reg in, it came back saying immaculate 999 score, all good remarks no mileage problems or mot problems.
❤
My old stomping ground , used to be a shack , testament to the growth of auctions .
And they're fees
Had a great little canteen back in the day .
Thanks for the trip down memory lane
I thought the X Type and the Peugeot 407 were pretty good value. I don't get it with the Honda though. Good car but overpriced IMO. Lee, could you do a standalone video on exactly what the auctioneer is saying during the auctions? He talks so fast I struggle with what he's saying most of the time😂
Luv your auction walkabouts.
Keep them a coming please
Thanks John
Like the auction content. Great vid as usual.I'm sure stock will come to you when needed.
Great video Lee cracking content as always, all the best in the new unit.
Really enjoy these vids. Keep em coming!
Lee seems like is sense of humour is spot on. Dry
Another enjoyable hour Lee, please keep them coming.
Thanks for watching aslandama
What a charming old man, real old school customer service.
That was interesting to say the least!
A little bit surprised you didn't have a couple,
But you are doing very well so no need to panic,Bill.
Thanks for watching!
Hi Lee , l love your channel and car auctions, when your in the auction room where possible could you have your camera pointed more to the digital screen please? Most of the time l cant quite understand the auctioneer so seeing the screen is a great help, keep up the great work and if l lived up north l would buy a car from you as you are a genuine fella 😁😁
Totally agree about Lee being a good bloke and would definitely buy a car from him. There are other auto channels (without giving them a plug on Lee's channel) who appear to have the same values as Lee and also don't want to sell a pup. It sort of raises your perception of motor traders and that there are good guys out there and youtube is probably a good way of finding them.
good to see a free service unlike some of those over priced checks other channels push
🎉
Possibly a free trial to Stat with
@@leedstown our VehicleScore will always be free :)
The X Type still looks good all these years later, compared to the S I don’t think it’s aged well at all.
mondeo in a posh frock lol🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@rampantram1 Yep that’s it 😂 Still does look good
Some nice stuff there...now i've sold the 400 i will be looking soon for a replacement ..may try the auctions
super helpful thank you
Really enjoying your auction videos.Not always easy to hear what the auctioneers saying.Those Honda Civic Type Rs have a following thats growing.That BMW 330 Clubsport was nice.
Thanks yes the bmw was a peach 🍑
Yea great video how in he'll did that crysler no get copy right against a Bentley
@@marklockwood8386 😂
Lee, another great video. Had a go on vehicle score and seems a very useful tool especially as its free to use. Think I may have sold my last car a bit cheap. Hay ho live a learn!
❤
Thanks 👍
Love the longer auction videos thanks lee
No problem 👍
Thanks Lee. I used to go to Prees every week back in the 80's. Should have got into this at the time. But hey ho. Its good to some old faces there too!😉
Thanks for watching mark, 👍👍
rare ole fing, nice fing, try and buy a few bits - love it :). your videos are so interesting its crazy. I cant wait for the next one.
Liked the BM Club sport👌Audi was cheap also
Great video Lee keep them coming!👍🏻
Thanks 👍Rare Bird that BMW 😁
Another great video. Just like your take on the business you do. Brilliant. 👍
Thanks 👍
Brilliant bit of Content Loving these vids Keep them coming
Thanks 👍
I would have had that old jag for that money ,right coulor and very straight looking car .
Black Focus need/s buying. I bought a wreck of an Audi A3 1.6 TDi cab under 100k this week. £800 wish hadn’t. Needs sooooo much paint. And a winda Reg. And a dual mass
Thanks for watching bud, sorry to hear about your Audi purchase
Excellent video Lee, some good cars in the lots
Thanks 👍
Noticed a lot of that stock had Scottish plates on it.
Obviously because it was an Arnold Clark sale a lot of their showrooms are North of the border.
Yes can be risky, been bitten on a Ford KA recently that came north of the boarder on a 59 plate, luckily we can sort it but its a pain
Have more rust because of harsh Scottish winters and salt on roads
Great job Lee. Loved the content
Thanks Nigel
Very knowledgeable,respect from Liverpool
Great show, love much.
👍👍
I’d have snapped up that C5, love them, bit dodgy electrics, but lovely cars to drive.
Not a bad car checker. My viano scored very low because high miles and comments on mot.
"Gate man" needs to be a regular on your channel :-D I hope you are able to have a nice chat with him soon regarding his flowers!
Nice one Lee logistics department🤣🤣🤣 Brilliant ..Them Fiat 500s aways seem to sell fast my mate aways picks them up and it always seems to be a girls first car .have a Top week 🙂🚗🚘✌️
@18:25 massive respect for not being the sort of guy to bid a mate up. ❤
@41:12 I've bought cars at auction that were damaged when I'd gone to pick em up... I'm sure in some cases it was peeps who bid and lost out..... petty but it happens 😮😮😮
Thanks for watching bulldog 👍👍👍
Interesting day. Hindsight is the perfect science! We all have our off days- always another auction, always another car. Them fiat wheels did look tatty. 😞. Dave Birmingham
Yes having them refurbed now, thanks for watching
Another great auction video Lee👍🏻
Thanks 👍
Hoping you have a great lot of sales up to wards christmas,
Thanks Pat, so far so good on the sales Front
Lee, if I'd just hung on a bit I would have discovered that you answered my comments after the white BMW was sold.
Some nice motors but if their not right for your pitch you have to let them go
How long do they give you to shift cars out of their lot? When I was allowed in BCA most cars would be loaded straight onto a flat bed or driven off virtually immediately.
Great content & reviews, quick question regarding buying first car. Is auction or car dealership better for this please. Thanks
Another great look at the car auction business. Looked very quiet Lee or were they behind the camera. Your time will come.
was quiet but plenty of bidders around and online
i like all your informative car auction videos there enjoyable and interesting to watch lee.
Love the 2006 cyrysler
Really enjoy these videos and I've even been onto auctioneers websites to take a look. But... I dont like how they dont keep a log of the sale prices, even for a week. Or how for some you need to be a trader to gain access. Sadly I dont have time to be able to watch the live auction to see how much the cars I'm interested in sell for. Though all that is based at the auctioneers, not this channel!
Hi Lee. What do you use for your valuations? I know it's difficult at the moment with prices all over the place. You always seem to be fairly spot on. Love the auction walkarounds, I wish somebody down south would do it.
my own knowledge I have built up over the years, for retailing cars your best place to look is Autotrader.
Hi l
Hi Lee what do you think of the Dacia Duster iam thinking of the 1.6 petrol, as I am about to retire after 33 years as a self employment painter & Decortor, & won't be doing the miles any more if I go for the diesel 1.5 i am worried about DPF problems ,any advice I know you are busy bloke sorry to impose on you all best from Bob
U win some u lose some Lee buddy...There's always next time at the auction...Andy the gate man made me laugh fairplay...lol...😂😂 Lee : I'll get onto my logistics dept...
Andy : Get it moved!!!...😂😂😂
Great auction video as ever Lee m8...Hope u have a good week on " The car pitch " and here's to your next video...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I used to go to auctions in the early to mid 90's, in Westbury. It was great walking around the car park dreaming 😆
My brother did get a 87 escort 1.3 GL in 92 which was a trade in from a Ford garage. He paid £425 +fees . It was rust free but sunroof leaked like a sieve.......
Found the channels blocked solid and once cleared and new seat covers it was a bargain motor. Unfortunately rear ended and wrote off only a few months later, but insurance paid out £1875 with an option to buy back for .........£25 😆
He sold engine, panels, interior etc for another £400 or so.
With his "winnings" he bought a base spec Orion for £600 from auction 👍
This was in the days when there was too many cars around and auctions were just overloaded with cheap cars. And a fair income could be made.
Much different to today 🙁
yes much different today, great read gj and thanks for watching the channel 👍👍
that 1 series was 18 years old so you expect it to be cheap because 2nd hand car prices are dropping off a cliff now because the pandemic chip shortage on new cars is virtually over now so getting cheap pcp makes sense again and there's no 12+ month waiting list which caused the massive surge in second hand car buyers in the first place hence artificially over inflate the market..
2k deposit and 200 a month on a 3 year contract for a new car with 10 year warranty, cheap insurance (new cars in 1-12 insurance groups are far cheaper to insure compared to a comparative 2nd hand car due to all the extra safety and pre crash avoidance tech that's standard now ) and low running costs is a better deal than blowing 3k on an 12 year old unreliable German car that needs £2500 repair work 6 months into ownership, that's if you don't write the car off first because the cheap previous owner fitted random chinese ding dong ditchfinder tyres to pass its mot and you end up crashing into a tree when it rains ..
I understand times are hard with money but buying cheap sometimes means means buying twice and you end up more out of pocket buying old relics.
Even spending a grand a year on old relics makes sense. Run it for a year then throw it for an mot. If it passes, superb. If not and the scrap man calls, then bin it and get 250 back.
I paid 850 for a 116i with 149k on it. Mot'd it for 200 quid, and was really enjoying it. Sadly written off in a hit and run but did a sterling job of protecting the occupants
I didn't realise we were back to those affordable levels yet, but seems like a fair selection available at that kind of cost for 3 years 8k miles per year (e.g. 5dr Polo).
It's too rich for me at £10k over 3 years, but I am all for other people buying new so I can live on their leftovers!
Thanks again fella
No worries
Nice detached houses estate... you aint short of a bob or two
Retail on the RR is more near £20k then 18.5k
nice watch again,good thing is you can breath in the fumes for me and i can stay away😅,with regards dvla its getting to how it was 3 years ago,hopefully the govt inspection will get some more people into the offices rather than waiting in elaines queue to see if the car with no v5 is in trade while she polishes her nails...............again
Can you please recommend any auctions around Leicester.
Thanks
Great vid Lee what did the fiesta ghia make
850 bud
@@carukchannel a bargain in this day n age.
thanks for the info , Do the dealer auctions have better deals than the open to the public auctions?
Prices are normally cheaper with dealer auctions and public will pay more
Auction question Lee. In the US, we are able to get in the vehicles, start them, use a scan tool for codes, even test drive on a closed track. Look under the hood and fully check all vehicles up for auction. That does not seem to be the case in the UK, it appears you can only look at the locked vehicle and listen to it as it drives through the lane. Very risky purchases or are we seeing the UK Auto Auction process wrong. Thanks. Cheers.
Depends on the auction house. My local place you grab the keys, start (but not drive- ok maybe pull it forward but nothing more) plug in the code reader etc... But the modern large auction houses changed during covid, they offer a warranted sale designed around remote bidding. The car will have an info pack with a 200 point check - runs/drives, no warning lights, all damage photographed etc. Essentially most things you would/could check yourself has already been done. You can return within 48 hours any car for a full refund that you find not to be as the warranted sale inspection sheet.
@@andrewsmall6568 Thanks. Lee could start them at the open lot but not at the auction houses. You are right about how rules can be quite different at auction houses. Thank you for the info. Cheers.
@@andrewsmall6568 Every auction house may operate a little different but most of the big players the format runs like in the video. BCA which is one of the largest auction groups in the world operate online only now after covid. Thanks for watching mjmohn in the US 👍👍👍👍
Can't speak for todays sales, but when auctions first started buyers did damage test-driving to bodywork and clutches. Some would swap plug leads over to cause non-start or back fire. One seller even admitted cutting the hood-release cable, another one would take out oil pressure bulbs etc. In the end it had to stop, and the only way to check car was to question the sale driver as he approached the rostrum. He would be very careful with his reply !
I could go further than that and suggest that whole chain is/was corrupt. From the yard lads to the transporter and trade plate delivery drivers that help themselves to the odd component and leftover found within. I could also suggest that i won't suggest, but I WILL suggest that they might be suggestible to the notion M'lud!
I think I'm becoming an auction addict 😊
😁
Nothing wrong with the 6 speed DSG provided they’re serviced on the dot. The problem is, very few owners do service them on the dot! Mine is on 207k with absolutely no problems, but it’s had a DSG fluid and filter change every 35-37k. My previous one did 145k with no issues and is still on the road now at 250k.
That’s a valid point
These are going wrong even with proper service. They are quite a bit fragile and too particular and thus they can (and do) go wrong. Yes, a lot of the time is also negligence on the part of the owner but this fundamentally means it's a fault with the design as normal cars should have a fair bit of leeway on that service time plus they should be made simple and robust enough to last different conditions, temperatures etc. In a hot climate the DSG is notoriously known for breaking down way too easy.
@@ikaruga24 I’ve had quite a few DSG VWs, and the only one I had a problem was back in 2012 on a MK5 Golf. Two clutch packs replaced, the VW dealer told me VW (the company) has fixed the issue with harder linings and it worked out ok. Since then I’ve had a 2013 Jetta 1.4 twin charger, a 2017 2.0 turbo 155 Highline Sport and a 2016 MK3 TTS all dsg and in Australia. No problems with those ever. I think a problem is that some owners negate on getting this transmission serviced, it’s not cheap. The DSG transmission years ago was a bit notorious I guess, but in my recent experience I haven’t had any problems and those 3 cars were bought used, and the TTS had been driven hard.
Great video Lee, I've asked this before are the general public allowed at these Aston Barclay auctions or is it dealers only.
Private customers are allowed, you need to register on the day and bring 2 forms of id, always check before traveling with the branch to make sure you have what you need paperwork wise in order to bid. Fees will be higher for Non Trade so take that into account, rate cards are available from the auction office
Thanks for you reply Lee.
@carukchannel
Where is these auction is located anyway Lee ???
What Town and post code please
Could you give me some advice, is it worth starting out buying and selling cars as a business how much do you need to start up thank you for any advice
I did vehicle score got 99 percent 😊 31 year old Merc
C5 was a hell of a lot of car for the money
Yes proper unit that c5 💪
Love the vids and you but can't believe you forgot the thing you promote and opened the car door on the one next to it.
Would have loved that e46 for £4,800!
Great channel watch all videos but why wait for log book never had a issue always sell cat cars without them just give a receipt
My experience trying to sell without a v5 is hard work, I have done it before and can even get them taxed without the V5 but just prefer to sell them with a V5, maybe I am to old school
I really do enjoy watching your channel. Understanding how you choose a car is really interesting to see. Thank you for producing content.
thanks ken 👍
Brilliant video! You know your stuff. Some damn cheap cars there, That Civic TypeR is a great investment indeed,can't go wrong.
Yes keep it looked after and it should flourish in a few years
Between MOTs that Citroen was driven 23,000 miles on dodgy rear tyres. death on wheels.
Hello mate I noticed you go for the older Astra's - Is there a reason why you don't go for the newer 2012 upwards model? 1.4l in your opinion any good?
I will buy the odd astra J, but they seem to be more problems with them, electric issues etc. I prefer the 1.6 petrol over the 1.4 but will sell a 1.4 but normally need a chain doing for sale
Hi Lee. Really enjoy the channel. What's the location of the auction?
prees heath in Shropshire
For the Type R, you could have listed so many positives apart from ‘it’s a good car’. I wish you would have given us a minute extra with it as you are right pal they are in demand. Btw I don’t mean anything negatively incase my comment gets read wrong
Hi Lee. Wow that C5 VTR was a Very cheap car. And that Mini was lovely lol. Shame about the Smoke. I'm looking for a nice Mini or a Fiat 500. I can't wait to see the one you bought. Nice Dacia. Too much money for your Customers. Lovely Meriva. Nice mileage. The Interior is like brand new. The Car with the most petrol will get you home lol😅. Christ I want that Fiat 500 Lee 😢 Aaahhhhh. Lol. I want to Cry. That Blue Aygo would have done me proper. I love them. They cost big money over here Lee. So keep that in mind bro because i need one. Or a Clean Mini. Thanks for all your hard work again. Great Video Lee. Stay safe and keep Smiling 😅 🇨🇮🇨🇮
Have two fiat 500's I have bought just working on them currently, thanks for watching Liam 😁
@@carukchannel Thanks Lee. We will have to do something soon.
SEAT are just a cheaper VW - great value like Skoda. Next door is on his 2nd Leon - his Mrs will only have a Golf coz of the VW badge ........... they have same budget so his cars have been newer and better than hers lol.
I prefer a seat leon over the golf personally, thanks for watching Darren 👍
Ibizia and Leon over the golf or polo I agree
back to cheap thats what we like to hear
Martin on the rostrum mate, your right about dearer stuff it's harder work, I've put a 19 plate c3 up and no calls, you seem to have to make dearer cars cheap (affordable) but you can make cheap cars dear, if you follow me.
Do you think the sales of non compliant ULEZ cars will be driving the prices down????
Most of the non ulez cars are being redistributed up north, how long until local authorities try and bring in there own charges may change that but for now its ok
@@carukchannel Thanks Lee and always enjoy your videos mate 👍
Thie auction looks alot better then BCA
Am I missing something here do I see 5 people or were they all behind you ????????????????????????????
You seem a really good guy but there is no link to actually buy any of your cars or I am missing something I have a sister looking for something cheap but reliable if you can help
most important jobs are getting that breakast voucher and seeing off the wifes Range Rover on the sly lol
cute little cars those CR-Zs, I'd seriously consider one for my Mrs if her 5th attempt at getting a licence works.
first time i saw a Chrysler 300C was when I lived in Manila back in 2005; it was owned by a local Pimp - I jest not.
What the fees at Aston bracly mate?
Did you get the breakie voucher tho??
Why didn't the Jag have any number plates.
Private number plate removed, would of been taken off before putting into the auction. its up to the buyer to sort new plates on its new reg number
so where did the cars come from?
Love this wee vid site great guy to listen to . Keep it up . Great wee site . Free . Should be more like you
Much appreciated!
Lee,Get it moved.........😅
He was not messing about 🤣
I just put my reg into vehiclescore and the only "bad bits" was Average mileage is very low LMFAO
You need to get out in it more Smart3k 😁
Still a couple of brewsters in there Lee
😁💪
Anyone know the post code of these auctions ????
