both of these cars though are nice examples which we would expect to make this sort of money. I don\'t think prices are rising but rather that people are taking advantage of the market conditions to pick up nice cars.

Both of these are sold by dealers as well who would present the cars properly and cover themselves under the sale of goods act.

Even so, it\'s good to see 1st gens starting to find buyers again after a dead six months.

Projects, fixer uppers and tatty cars are still fetching peanuts though.

Now that would be worth seeing!:evillaugh
 
I suspect your rotor housings won\'t become a snack.
 
Only 2 bidders on the silver s3,so i can\'t see there being a bidding frenzy in last few minutes.

But then there was the one in surrey with primer on the bonnet and missing the turbo. Lhd I think it was. Didn\'t even go for starting bid of 450.
