Enjoy guys
Love the auction videos,my favourite channel 🤩
Glad you like them and thanks for watching
you have the right ingredients Lee, thats why your channel is doing so well mate.
I was poking around in a breakers yard this afternoon (Ford related) and noticed some really bad structural corrosion issues with FIAT 500 / Ford KA on the front ends, plenty of them in that yard. was really surprised considering how they are quite modernish cars.
those 1.4 tdci Ford Fusions are a bit under powered and agricultural by todays standards BUT they're great little cheap-all-the-way luggers with the potential to go on forever if they're treated half right.
Thanks for your videos, I have reached this one after watching the rest from the start. Thanks for sharing x
Many thanks simon 👍👍👍
I’m starting to understand auctions now, thanks to Lee, and these videos.
Some of these cars do seem quite expensive though, considering the amount of work needed to re sell them at a profit.
Yes its difficult to navigate through them and try to judge which ones haves potential for profit and which ones just look like pain 😁
Salute to you Lee. Honestly can't thank you enough for making your video include the car walk around and going through the damage and estimated repair costs its brilliant, love the part when we get to see car going through the hall there is no one else who has this sort of content with the precision you have mate. You are legend, keep up the hard work mate ❤
I appreciate that and thanks for watching Ali 👍👍
I can remember back in the old days buying mini clubman for 30 pound cleaning it up and selling it for 50 pound.👍times and prices have changed.
A lot easier in those days ! 👍
Most cars the auction choke them
There was a real mixture there Lee. Some proper dogs like the type R.....that was in rough shape. I hope whoever put the provisional online bid in didn't get it because they would have been gutted with the state of the bodywork. The fusion at the end was a steal....nobody is going to worry about minor bodywork in that particular market. Nice one Lee.
Those Alphards make mega bucks here in Thailand. New ones go for over 100k sterling.
Wow Lee I have just seen you have nearly 20k subscribers I have been with you at a couple of thousand, good work, Mark
Thanks for that leeds, yes its been a roller coaster the last 7 months since starting to the channel and I cant thank people enough for watching the content and engaging
Looking forward to the future auctions videos. Thanks for the video Lee
Just filmed another today at a new venue, should have it out on sunday.
Thanks for showing the 7 seater family carriers ...pls more pointers on the good the bad and ugly cheapies
Love your videos Lee , auctions may get a bit mundane for you but for somebody not in the business but really like cars in general, these videos are really great.
I really enjoy the auctions nervo, plenty more of this content to come
Love the channel, I used to dabble in cars some 30 yrs ago and absolutely loved it I spent all my time at auctions all over the place, watching your Channel is right up my street 👍👍
Thanks, rob, I wish I was dabbling in cars 30 years ago, compared to the electronic shite I deal with today I would go back to them days in a instant
@@carukchannel totally agree Lee cars these days are definitely built so the dealer can have ya pants down, I could buy a car from one auction them days and take it to another auction and turn it over 🤦♂️, keep up the good work mate
I really mourn the good old bad old days of flipping leggy Cavaliers, Montegos, and Sierras coming off company fleets at 3 years old with full history to a ready market of sensible people who understood what they were buying. Things were so much simpler, and a hell of a lot more fun too.
@@matthewgodwin3050 absolutely true, but also the other end of the scale, I remember buying some crap too, I bought a 5 speed Toyota from the block, it had a 5th gear issue so I put a 4 speed gear knob on it and sold it on 🤦♂️🥱
Good video,the C4 looked clean for the money,love the auction clips.
Thanks 👍 yes it did to be fair
Great video again Lee 😉 thanks for mentioning the person that was asking you to try and show more fords lol that was me . Still waiting to seeing a nice c max though 😉. Looking forward too next video.
Will keep an eye out for a C-max 👍😁
Can't get enough of your content mate
Many thanks, new auction video coming out on sunday night, different venue this time
Another great video Lee,did like the type r but agree with you with preferring the previous model had an anniversary edition in silver 👌
Yes the old ep3 was lovely vehicle, I also had a Accord Type R some years ago. What a machine that was 🏎️🔥
20k subs Lee well done, keep the videos coming 👍🍺
Thanks 👍
Beautiful Alfa there bud!! Great video yet again mate, looking forward to the new auctions you'll be visiting, keep em coming 😎
Thanks, mart. Love your pies but has not half give me some indigestion today 🤣
@@carukchannel it's age that mate!! 😉
Another good video Lee.That Type R seemed a bit rich.I think theyre bad for corrosion underneath and sills.That Fiat 500 needed wrapping in a satin gun metal.I caught a train to New Brighton on Monday afternoon and bought a Avensis Touring 2009 for £1100.It has a EPB issue thats why i got it cheap.
Still sounds cheap to be fair, good luck with it
Loving the channel Lee....and your name is the best lol.......I couldn't sell fire to eskimos so love watching your auction videos, and with of course being a petrolhead who loved bangornomics huge fan of your channel, can't wait to see the new pitch etc.....If i ever decide to selll my KINGISHER BLUE 400 i shall know where to go
Has it got a rear spoiler fitted 😁
Nearly 20k subscribers so quickly, brilliant 👍.Totally right about the type R...people want a car like that to be right. The C4 looked a snip to my untrendy eye.
did look cheap the C4 and thanks for the comment 👍👍
As a car trader who attends auctions, it amazes me how people treat their cars. I mean have some pride as you drive around rather than in a dented, and scratched up heap. They would probably get more when coming to part exchange if they fix any damages and obviously makes our lives easier when trying to re sell them. I turn away soo many cars because of their condition or lack of history. Anyway, that type r is quite rare in white but it’s been abused and you can tell as they all have been.
their is more to life than cars .
You're right. I don't know how some cars get into the state they're in. We can all pick up dents and scuffs, but you see some right states.
I used to care about my cars, then I had a family, and realised that there is way more to life than a piece of metal. I’ve had my 13 plate caddy for 5 years, gone from 40k to 115k and it’s battered. 🤷🏻♂️ it earns me enough cash not to worry about dents and scratches.
You are quite the best for this content. PS a "what doesn't sell" dog show special would be interesting.
Thanks pork 👍👍
The silver bmw 320d was cheap Lee, ive had a couple of them, good solid cars. Great content again buddy 👌👌
Thanks david
Thanks for that, Lee - soooooooooo close to 20K subs !
Yes Maybe tonight I can cross that milestone 👍👍👍👍
@@carukchannel 🙏🏻 btw- was that an Alpharetta 2.4 4 pot?
Soon be over the 20k subs Lee , great content as usual 😊
So close! thanks for your support in watching the channel
👌👌Top quality stuff as normal Lee 👌👌
Thanks stevie
Great video Lee thanks buddy
No problem 👍
Great vlog.glen.
Thanks 👍
Think your channel is great. Think i have watched from near the beginning 😊Bonus for me is as my other half is a Lancashire lass doesn't mind me watching👍. She hates the Essex accents on a certain other famous UA-cam automotive channel 😂
I know who you mean and I agree with your other half, 🤣 Would like to be a £1 behind him mind 👍
I don't know the Essex guy. I know the arrogant guy in Devon and the guy in Lancashire with the monotone voice who wants 10 grand for an old Golf.
That type R is worth a good few quid repaired. I’m always curious to why a lot of the cars are sold at auction. Great work Lee
Thanks 👍
I wondered what the bodywork said about it's general use history and if the mechanicals had hidden evidence of abuse. These things attract enthusiastic drivers to put it politely.
It's just so tough to make a decision to get cars now,just gotta weight up if it's really worth it,you gotta need stock thou. That Alfa is a tough call.
Looking forward to the new vids lee thank you
New content landing sunday all being well
Up here in Aberdeen the prices are a bit more expensive than down in England
Ha Ha you should come to the far west of England!
15:23 my mate brought that white one.. I only found out because I watched your videos mate 😆 he's making a project of it..
Great to hear, was a nice thing from memory 👍👍
Nice video as always lee!
Thanks 👍
in these hot summer months will you try to film some summercars? not necceceraly drop tops but it can alaso be cars like the white Civic Type R I don't think that will be used in the winter
Lee could we see some newer cars in the auctions 2015 to 2020 please
Ok will do some more later cars on my next visits
So frustrating mate 😅 the cars up north are so cheaper than where I am Northampton *
Great video Lee. One complaint. No man should show bear feet in sandals unless your in Singapore. 😎😂
🤣
another great video, the C4 seemed a very good price. not surprised you nearly have 20k subscribers as i would rather watch your videos than some rubbish they show on tv
I appreciate that david 👍👍and thanks for watching again
Or a dealer swanning around in a Range Rover, having the mould cleaned off an old Golf and wanting 10 grand for it.
cars go to auction mainly because they are not good enough to retail or they need work and have faults, if you buy from auction you accept the problems and then fix them, however what warranty can you give them, it is always a gamble
I like the EP3 more too but this FN2 Type R is nice and Championship White is quite rare. Worth around £8000 when fixed up I would think. It would sell quickly as well.
It's obviously not worth you bothering with it for more than £6500 Obviously. It's more of a car for a private buyer to fix up in their spare time.
That white civic is a nice unit,
@5:00 😂😂 dogshite brown. looking forward to Sundays watch at an independent auction house 👍👍
Editing the video as I type this to you, 👍😁
Missed this one as I was in Turkey! Crazy money for that Type R, especially in that condition. I liked my diesel one though, went like a stabbed rat!
Yes they do go well split pin, I used to own a Accord Type R some years ago and that was even quicker
@14:22 The VW T5 is a glorified panel van but this is the real deal, a Toyota Alphard.😊
@15:17 You can't import one for that amount. That is for sure.
Very true
I did lunchtime AB yesterday, got a clean St corsa, 59 plate for the right money, and surprisingly it drove mint on the way back, 1st time I've been for weeks, actually went for a mint diesel signum (!) did a grand tho, but last one I had a guy came from Ireland for it.
Yes they were a decent car the signum, always had good spec.
@@carukchannel that one last year 2.8 v6 turbo, 640 quid tax as post 06,didn't put him off tho, did OK on it and got his old s80 volvo off him, sold that and took a kia sportarge in against that and did OK on that, took a colt gallant in on that, auto and did well on that as well, all that from a signum.
Hey Lee will you come to Kingston upon Hull and open your very own car auction centre as there's an old extra large show room up for sale at auction mount pleasant hull
Ran a car auction before, not sure its something I would want to get involved in again.
If you're looking to buy a car for yourself, then a bargain can be had. If on the other hand you're looking to sell on for a profit - - - a bit of a tough job. As for the Fiat 500 - - - that's just fiat for you, isn't it, shit cars in a shit colour. I used to have a Focus, metallic brown (well Ford called it Burnt Amber) - - - my wife called it wheelie bin brown!!! That really annoyed me, every time I got in it all I thought about was wheelie bins - - - was a great little car, 1.6 diesel, 6 speed, £20 road tax and over 50 to the gallon
More content like this please,
More content coming this week, new video landing sunday of my latest auction trip to a new venue
good video.
10:20 thanks for including the CAP and retail prices. Provisional was 3600. What do you think the seller would have accepted, or do they just return it to a future auction?
As far as I am aware it sold, so the seller must of accepted the offer of a counter was accepted.
The 61 plate C4 looked like a good buy at £825, unless it had some issue.
No did seem a cheap car to be fair
You could say it was cheap because it was unfashionable, but I don't think those cars exist in this market.
There's nothing in life quite so terrifying as a 'cheap' Citroen. They're never that for very long.
Great content
thanks tim
I had a 500 in that colour last year, sold it St away,
My 4 year old grade 2 F10 BMW 520d with 26k miles and FBMWSH cost me £16.4k delivered with fees from BCA pre covid. Crazy to see how much they're going for now with a lot more mileage.
Nice work!
I'm still struggling to adjust to the current car market, as are a lot of would be buyers I think. Prices are in the stratosphere, whilst most people are still living on the same income they were 4 years ago. The numbers just don't add up for people, and traders are being made to look greedy.
@@matthewgodwin3050 I think some are. Some are really trying it on in this market but there are still some decent cars out there at fair prices. There are no bargains anymore, but prices going up across the board has made cars that were hard to justify before look like decent value.
Now then Lee, I will bow to your experience and ask if you think I should put my Stunning Mazda6 2.2 SKYACTIV-D Sport in white through the auction or not? Reason why I ask is because it has 176K mileage but is MOTED till Feb next year but has loads of advisories, however, has loads of paperwork. It does have black alloy wheels & low profile tyres, which were originally around a grand, is immaculate inside & out. No faults or issues at all. Because of the advisories and the mileage do you think private sale or auction?. BTW, it is a 2014 model, 4 owners from new, and as well as the black alloys and low profile tyres the white paintwork has a glitter look in the sun, not sure if this is standard?. £2.5k?, does that seem reasonable?. Cheers!!
You'll be disappointed bud, auctions and the trade see private sellers as lambs to the slaughter, also without a trade acc you'll struggle to be accepted, tbh I'd do an autotrader ad, with a video, put a fair price on it and you'll sell it, that's what I do anyway.
Loving the channel, quick question, are aston Barclay ok with private buyers now? I got my last car from bca pre covid but they dont entertain private buyers anymore. Used to love going down and looking for a bargain, your channel gives me that!
Yes private buyers can buy from there, you need 2 forms of id to bid and a deposit which is returned on the day. Fees will be more than trade mind. also check out wilson auction group they allow private customers.
Really interesting vids....
I liked the orange fiat, though the pudding was messy.
The Compact would've been a star turn on your forecourt.
And I'm not sure if it's PC to say "coloured blind man" these days😂.
Maybe but could not thing of any other way to say it 😁
@@carukchannel 😁 was only joking. I really enjoy these auction vids. And good luck with the new business. 👍
That Honda seemed like a bit of a shed, bad mismatched colour on the bonnet respray too.
Yes it was not a nice car at all
I know it's your business not a hobby but would be nice to see a sideline of a "trading up" journey from buying the cheapest sh** shed flipping and trading your way to a decent tasty motor. It's been done many times before elsewhere on TV and UA-cam but it's always popular
Hi john, yes would defiantly something I will do and thought about but waiting to get into my new premisses first and then I can get to work on such content like that. Thanks for the suggestion bud its a decent one
That fiat, sunburn is peeling off, 😮
Fake tan peeling off more like 🤣🤣
Give their kidneys for a titanium 😂😂👏🏻👏🏻
Every time, I just do not bother now if says titanium in bidding 😁
@@carukchannelgood man Lee good we video prices have gone down thank god ,,
More videos please
God bless mate,,
Is there any chance you could give us a example of van auctions xfleet
I don't go to many van auctions sorry, but If i ever see vans at auctions I visit I will always show them
Superb video Lee buddy...U done right there keeping your money in your pocket on this extra footage from the last auction...u bought well at this auction on the last video and this extra stuff just seemed to need too much work doing to them making profit on them much less...Can't wait to see the next videos at other auction sites...maybe a change might see u pick up a few more crackers....Keep up the great work buddy...👍🏻👏🏻💪🏻
Was at a new auction site today Neil, just got back an hour ago. Was a interesting day and I did win a car (spoiler alert) will be editing the video over the next few days and should have it out for sunday night. Its very different to aston barclay let me tell you so don't miss it 🤣👍
@carukchannel Lee that's great to hear buddy...Roll on Sunday nite for my Car UK fix!!!...Great work Lee m8...👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
it proves that the theory often mentioned that we are due catastrophic depreciation at every level is on its way aint true.🤣
I cant see prices falling back to a level we had before covid, especially the sub 5k market, I think your spot on stan with your comment
Lee, where do you sell your cars and what’s your contact?
I'm with you on the EP3 Type R, far nicer than the FN2. The 500, some say "dog shit brown" some say "terracotta" 😁, either way we can all agree, its was as rough as a badger's butt!!
It was and ep3 was a cracking car and far better than the later shape as you rightly say
Are they open to the public if not are they any good ones that are in the North West?
yes they are open to the public and also look at queensfery Wilson car auctions
I think the prices are back up again.
Dog shit brown 500, I nearly spat my tea out Lee. The type R was far too rough for my liking
Yes was not a nice example tony that Type R, thanks for watching 😁
Hi Lee
Where is located it I just want to buy a car can you please guide me is it suitable to buy a car form auction for newly passed driving test.
Yeah I Do Like A Fireside Car Auction Video L.O.L.
what did the fiat 500 go for as you didn,t put the price up
£600 provisional
That Type-R is battered lol!
Yes it was not a great example
Excellent video as always Lee 👍
Thanks 👍
Don't you ever go to the one in rotherham,mags I think it's called used to be at Bawtry loved that place,go get a car chippy next to it,fuel up at the garage on way home in New car 🚗 😂
Will look into that one, sounds like my sort of auction next to a chippy
Yes bud, Bawtry back in the day was buzzing, the auctioneer would make an announcement if the police were about pulling people, once bought a royale, opened the bonnet, very stiff, it was actually supporting the inner wing!
Yes it's a shame it moved,I've had many a good night there,I've not been since it moved but due a new car so maybe a visit is long over due 😀 sounds like you bought a shed there pal 🤣🤣🤣
@@thedoppelganger2665 be about 1989 mate, remember putting my mk1 capri thru, they put it in first car and it did 100 quid, broke down quite a few times on the A1 going back, went every week more or less.
some of the prices were ok but i wouldn't want that 14 yr Honda at that price and work needed
Was scruffy the honda dave to be fair, not a nice example. thanks for watching
@@carukchannel i meant to say wouln't want lol
lee do you get see many jag xf s coming through btw ?
Yes I will film some on my next visit to aston barlcay
Great idea going to new auctions Lee, We used to travel hundreds of miles to different auctions, hoping they would be cheaper, but they rarely were 😀 These days with internet bidding and the auctions computer systems, it must be even worse, Always enjoy your videos as it takes me back to some fun times 👍
Thanks Nicnak, I have enjoyed going to other auctions over the last week or so, also had some winners too. Videos will be out soon
Do you have to be a trader to go to these auctions or can anyone register/sign up to attend?
They do allow private customers in but you need to register on the day, you need 2 forms of ID and a returnable deposit.
How come you don't go to BCA?
Fee structure is poor and you need to buy so many cars to get a reasonable fee level its not worth me going down that route. I do go to other auction sites and will be filming at other sites in the coming weeks
Find me a x4 good spec 😂
First !
🏆🏆
Don’t know why but the Ford fusion sell for a lot
I have noticed that too, always seem to do more than the equivalent fiesta of same age
It’s the flat boot. Old people love them. Practicality of an estate without the big size.
@@crunchinjelly very true, had a old boy who came the garage for servicing who said exactly that, '' like a small estate''. Very interesting old boy he was too. He guarded grand admiral doenitz and Rudolph Hess at spandau prison in the 1960's really interesting chap
@@crunchinjellyI think the market takes advantage of older people. Automatics are ridiculous prices. It's a bit of a scandal really.
Some paintwork horrors in that lot!
Yes seems to be more and more cars these days needing paint
You are so careful!! You miss alot of cars mate. That would make you a tidy sum! If your gonna do this new venture (that I'm looking forward to) . It can't be just cheap stuff... Start looking at 1k/3k stuff.. It's your money I know.. But it kills me the stuff your missing... Cars are alot more expensive here were I am.
I do buy 1-2k cars and do have a number ready to go on sale which will be cirica 2495-3295 retail cars. I stick to what I know well but on occasion I will buuy more expensive vehicle. Maybe as time moves on and the market changes I will need to adapt in to more expensive vehicles
@@carukchannel I get what your saying mate... It's just me living down south times have changed.... The closer you lived to London the more the price.. It's gone mad.. The cars you miss out on I could cry... But I'm not the guy is buying...
@@RAGNAAAAif more dealers were like him then prices would stay sensible. There are too many greedy dealers gobbling up everything and paying too much for cars because they see a profit in this market.
@@carukchannelthing is bud, as you know even if a 3 to 5k car is cheap, value wise the punters want em as new, I really struggle with dearer stuff, did 3 last week sub 1500 quid and they were glad to have them, every time I do a dearer car there doesn't seem to be much in it, got a 15 plate seat to paint so I'll see how that does, but your banger people are definitely different to your 3k plus people.
@@roystonvehicles9129 it's fair enough, isn't it? And the cars that are 3-5k now are the cars that used to be under 2k, so you can't blame people for wanting them like new. If they're rough then don't touch them or don't pay over the odds for them.
Hey mate...who do you mean when you say "Coloured blind man"...Ray Charles...or Stevie Wonder?🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Now Now, I mean a male man who cant see colour correctly, ask my dad. He came home once with a VW beettle which is said was blue, turned out to be bright orange 🙈
Do you do police auctions lee ?
I don't but I know of a few sales, I might attend one this year
Lee that fiat 500 really did look like dog shit 😀😀
Horrid vehicle gary 😁
How much are fees
At this auction for trade it would be around £160 for £1k purchase. Private I am not sure but would be alot more maybe £250 🤷
Have you made a video/vlog of you actually selling a car or making profit,,??
Yes many, including my last vlog video the other day
Good to see no young idiots walking around every car that's under the hammer lol
A Toyota car
Didn't seem worth going to that one Lee?
Was just some left over footage from the last auction video, I did buy a couple of bits that day which are in the previous video. thanks for watching johnnie 👍👍
You ignored all the good cars like Minis, X5s etc 🤣😂
i thought you said good cars 🤣
Lee wat u got for 3k
I have sent u an email
You could have got a few more, car's that was cheap.
