    First I heard about these, i wouldn't mind a spin up to see what the going is like on them. You probably would have to pay a few hundred to get in too see whats happening though. Fully refundable i'm guessing though, well thats what happens over in England at them anyway.

    Do you know the average price of any model, or do you want to know it???

    I've you can just have a look around, think you need to pay a deposit to bid (obviously!) My mate said starlet GTs were goin for around 4-5k, not too sure how true that is now. There seems to be alot more peolpe selling jap imports around. Buyin for 4-5k and selling for 8-9k not bad profit even after paying the VRT!! I'd rather put another 5k into the car rather than give to a chancer.......

    Not that I'd be buying a GT!!
