Chapmans Auction Saturday 14th November

RedorDead

Anyone going along to this - cant due to work. Would be interesting to see what prices these go for though. Especially the unregistered range rovers.

Was the auction for Chapmans not already a few months back?

Think you're right. Chapman's was earlier in year. This is being held in Chapmans. Viewed cars there yesterday. There were some with No plates/window stickers from Casey's, Canavans, Drive Motor Group. Surprised to see Sean Beehan's name on some of the Range Rover's, but perhaps they were traded in elsewhere.
One thing that surprised me was that one of the cars at the auction which is labeled as Liquidation Auction is on Carzone being sold by a former Volvo (now Ford) dealer. I would have expected that these cars would be held somewhere by the liquidator. Might be wrong, but almost certain it's the same car.

was looking at the 08 mondeo's. did you see them today? what money do you think cars will make? most auctions here seem to make near retail....

Saw Mondeo there but didn't take much interest in it. I asked felle working for auctioneers if there was reserve. He said not. Had hoped to go tomorrow but looks doubtful at this stage.

kindalen

anyone at this today?

Dropped in for about half an hour. All new or nearly new stock but anthing decent was making good money. Alot of Volvo 09 S40 1.6Ds were making about 18-19K. Unreg Range Rovers were making 40-43K with another 36k VRT payable. The had a few 08-09 V70s making late 20's but they were 2.0 petrol with manual boxes. €1050 tax p.a. No great bargains there tbh and a huge crowd. Would like to see what everything made though.

Friend of mine was at it and just sent me list of what everything made. What were u asking about. The S80's went for 17,000. I was interested in the V70 Auto diesel. It went for 25500. The 08 Freelander Auto went for 21k.

VolvoMan

Those 2 litre S80 and V70 Flexifuel's don't really make any sense anymore under the new VRT system. The engine is also a very uninspiring normally aspirated four-cylinder unit as well and would be best described as 'adequate' in its performance.

15,000. As far as I know VAT, VRT + Auctioneers fees are extra.

Oh ooo!!!!!! My list says 6000 for Transit connect. If that price is wrong, I had better not give any more in case they are wrong too.
