Heads up - Possible Rev 5 turbo in Copart

Post by Krish »

There's what looks like a genuine Rev 5 Turbo import.

Can't see the engine bay but got to be worth it if it is a turbo!

In Copart (Bristol) auction ends tomorrow:

What was wrong with it to be only £1600 and for you to only want to go up to £700?

Man! I need to get in on this trade only club!

Nearly all cars are accident damage from various insurance companies. You can put your own car in as a auction sale once your a member and you do see them from time to time.

They do other stuff like televisions, jewellery, motor bikes, etc.

If you do decide to join, make sure you have a good read of the terms and conditions. There are various charges; nothing extortionate but its proportional to the value of the auction sale price! Plus once you win, you don't have very long to get the car couriered away. Like I said, its not a big deal if your aware of everything before you commit to buying.

The biggest p1$$ take was until you spend something like 5k with them, they will only accept cash as payment at one of their branches!
