Classic car auction






Understanding Classic Car Auctions
By Andy Jefferson

Classic car auctions have always been a perennial favorite amongst car lovers, both young and old. So much so, that some of them willingly fork over huge sums of money just to get their hands on a rare classic car!

Now this article will shed some light for those of you who aren't very familiar with these types of auctions, so you might want to pay close attention!

First up, a classic car auction is a great event to check out all of the different types and models of rare cars belonging to different eras. But since the classic car market is a fairly tight niche, cars are often sold at high prices, compared to other car auctions. And because of this, most classic cars are often not sold at all.

Don't let this deter you from bidding on one though. A classic car at an auction will probably cost you less the amount you'd have to pay to a private owner. Besides, not all cars are sold at exorbitant prices; once in a while, you do come across a great bargain you can take advantage of - you'll just have to keep your eyes open!

There aren't that many classic car auctions around though, so you want to do some research. A good idea would be to flip through popular magazines and other publications that cater to this niche. You could also do a search on major search engine such as Google and Yahoo. Here are some great websites you might want to check out:

There's a ton of other classic car auction websites, so have fun browsing around!

As mentioned before, this is a pretty small niche market, so you'll need to be armed with some 'insider' secrets if you want to dominate it. Now this doesn't mean you've got to be an 'expert,' but a good knowledge on classic car auctions will help in the long run. For instance, it's always better to know exactly what type and model you're looking to buy, because problems could arise between the seller and you if you were to return the car after paying for it.

For the budding car auction enthusiasts out there who're on the lookout for great deals... well, here's good news for you: you can find a limited selection of very rare cars for rock-bottom prices, if you don't mind spending a good amount of time hunting around!

Now here's a fair warning - once you do find the 'ultimate' classic car, be prepared to participate in a frenzied and often raucous bidding war. If you're absolutely delighted with it, there'll be plenty of other classic car auction fans who're likely to feel the same way as you do.

Finally, you need to keep in mind that some sellers out there can sell you cheap replicas of actual classic cars. The best way to avoid being ripped off, is to take along an experienced classic car auction buyer. That way, you'd feel much safer when handing over the cash in exchange for a classic car!
