Just out of interest I floated myself off to one of the local Car Auctions tonight.
Well, interest and looking for a nice, TD Mondeo for someone.
Nothing much going on at the auctions, but a few cars I thought you lot might have been interested in. If I'd been there just looking for something to make a quick few hundred quid on, I'd have definately bought the following;
