Police car auctions.?

18th September 2009

I am in dire need of a car. Lol. My car broke down and I have been saving money for a new one for a couple of months. I still dont have quite enough for a down payment but I am curious about police auctions.
Are the cars nice? Is it a rip off? I want a good car that will last for awhile.
I just need some general information on it, your opinions.
Thanks everyone!
=)

  1. to be honest most police cars have lots of miles on them and hard miles at that. my suggestion is to try looking on craigslist.org for your area

  2. if you are looking for a cheap car, go with one from a police auction. My cousin bought a car from there and he loves it! Most of these cars are pretty decent, and go for cheap prices. If this doesnt work out try craigslist, ebay, or some other places that might have some cheap cars. remember to have a mechanic look at any car before you buy it. Also try to go with a foreign made car, they usually last longer as long as they are taken car of

    BEST OF LUCK

  3. On ex-cop cars.

    They are serviced regularly.

    Depending on the mileage and such it could be a great investment for you.

    Most police get these cars new from the dealer- and all records are kept for all repairs and mainenance.

    Just make sure it is a good car before you buy it.

    Ask to see the paper work

  4. Here where I am in FL the police auctions consist mostly of seized vehicles. The best thing to do is to go before the auction begins, with someone who know about cars and check out the ones that interest you. I know this is allowed here. Contact your local police dept. to see if there is a list of cars that will be for sale. Here, it’s usually posted on their website. I’m sure there are some decent cars, it’s just choosing the right one. With new or used we run the risk of problems b/c cars are man-made. I know the feeling of needing a reliable car, you just have to pray about it and all will be well. Good luck!

    Toyota’s and Honda’s are great cars and last for miles!

  5. Police auctions are a good place to buy a car if your "price buying" Police cars are maintained regularly. E-bay is also a good place to look. KBB.com will help give you an idea of what you can expect to pay for a car. I’d look for a domestic model. Don’t fall for the foreign car hype. Domestic models are easier and much more reasonable to repair, they don’t rust like the foreign models do, and they are more reliable than the foreign models.
