Car auctions can be great places to get some unbeatable deals on all kinds of different cars from classics to brand new unregistered models. We regularly help clients bring back cars that they have purchased oversea at car auction houses.

Buying a car from an auction can be quite a nerve wracking experience but the rewards can be unbeatable and a very quick way of getting hold of the right vehicle.

We have assisted with collections and subsequent international car shipping from auction houses such as RM Auctions (www.rmauctions.com), Copart (www.copart.com) and Barrett Jackson (www.barrett-jackson.com)

Once you have purchased your vehicle, all we need is the auction number and details for our driver to get through the gate, generally you are provided with gate pass details for this purpose

Our website features a unique instant car shipping quote system which allows you to price up how much it would be to import any make/model of car from any US zip code which will let you work out how much it will be to get the car to the UK, it will even show you tax/duty estimates as well as testing and registration requirements and costs for each specific model of car.

This bizarre Pontiac’s body was created by Rohm & Haas, inventor of Plexiglas, to show off its revolutionary new material, back in 1939, and this particular car is the only one of two such vehicles that’s known to survive.

RM Auctions expects that a 1939 Pontiac with a Plexiglas body will go for anywhere between $275,000 to $475,000 at the St. John’s auction that’s being held as part of the Concours d’Elegance of America in Plymouth, MI this July.

It almost doesn’t look real and you need to see a few angles to see that it is not just a clever piece of CGI!
