auction tips
Choose the company
First, you need to know if the auction house is trustworthy. For this, you can talk to people who have already purchased a car through an auction and even follow along as a spectator, to find out which auction has vehicles with the most affordable and well-preserved price.
Read the auction notice
After choosing which auction houses you want to participate in, it is very important to read the announcement, as there are cars that are at a good price, but have a very high rate of fines that you must pay when purchasing.
Take a mechanic on the day
In addition to having done what was said above, it is very important that you see the car in person and not just through photos, so it is better to participate in face-to-face and not online auctions. When participating in a face-to-face auction, you have the opportunity to take a trusted mechanic with you, so he can assess whether the car is worth buying at the bid price.
Plan your bid amount
Finally, before going to the auction to buy your car, plan which model and the maximum value you intend to offer for the car. So you don't run the risk of bidding more than you can and even more than the car is worth.
