I have not had a lot of luck in actually tracking down a website which advertises these auctions, gives information on them or puts a list up of those for sale. If anyone happens to know anythng about it at all id like to hear. Thanks again!!

Well Divine Have no fear. In this little drug nation of ours our gardai need top class wheels to catch the crooks. I do believe they hold auctions at least once a year to sell their motors. be assured they have high milage but they are serviced regularly and will be in good nick. keep an eye open in the papers, i'm not sure about seized assets but if the criminal assets beareau have a website it's worth checking they're bound to be flogging stuff they catch to pay tax-avoidance bills run up by crims!

Yeah i know the irish law holds them all right but i was actually interested in yachts, power boats that sort of thing which is why i wanted to know about american auction sites since i dont think irish crooks are realy into their boats.
