Default Price paid at Auction

Hi everyone,

Was wondering if anyone could give me any examples of damaged vehicles they have bought at Auction and what they paid for them, must be damaged.

Cheers,

Adrian.

My mate bought a smashed vx clubsport back in 2002 from Fowles in melbourne for $7500. He intended to use the motor, brakes, wheels etc in a wb ute. He had an absolute nightmare trying to register the car with engine numbers etc. Its a good idea if you are doing it for the right reasons

there is geelong auctions? where.

i been interested in just getting an e series to wreck and take the parts i need and sell the rest off and hopefully at least come out even.
considering people pay up to like 200 sometimes just for the lid in the center console.
