Anyone had any experience of going to car sales and auctions? I'm a bit nervouse about being pressured into a purchase or being ripped off. I heard you can get real bargains but wouldnt all the dealers stop that?

Should I just stick to 'the good old trading post'? I got my last 2 cars that way with no worries. But a few friends bought some bargains at car auctions recently.

I know what you mean about those car sales places. Lots of 'trade' people etc. I still like looking through the TP on a Thursday and circling the ones I'm interested in!

I know alot of people who have bought cars from auctions. All been very happy and these cars are still on the road today with no problems.

If you know what car/s you are looking for and their common faults, you will be fine mate. Its a catch 22 and you could be opening up a car of worms, but make sure you inspect the vehicle throughly before deciding to purchase it. If you have a friend or family member who is mechanically minded, your in luck.
