Government Car Auction FAQs
17th January 2011
When it comes to car auctions, the best deals can be found at those ran by the government. This list of FAQs will answer any questions you may have about attending your first government car auction.
1. Where does the government get these cars from?
Most of these cars are seized from people that have not paid their taxes or come from the DEA or FBI which have seized the vehicles from those involved in illegal activities.
2. What should I bring with me?
The top 3 things you should bring with you are your id, a mechanic and money just in case you see something you like.
3. Do these cars come with a warranty?
Unfortunately most vehicles sold at a government car auction are sold in as-is condition. That means if there happens to be anything wrong with it now or as soon as you drive it off the lot, you will bear the responsibility of repairing it. That’s why it always a good idea to bring a mechanic with you unless you know you way under the hood.
4. I don’t know where any government car auctions are located near me. Where can I find one?
First, you can check you local newspaper for announcements of auctions that may be taking place in your city. But these are few and far in between. Your next alternative is to become friendly with a used car dealer and ask them to take you with them to the next auction they attend. You can also get a list of car auction sites from off the internet, which end up paying for themselves after you buy your first car.
5. What types of cars can I find there?
It all depends on the day and which auction you go to. You can find a wide variety of vehicles, from your everyday commuter car to high end luxury.
6. How much money should I bring with me?
Depending on what you’re looking for, you should bring anywhere from ,000 to ,000 with you. Most auctions allow you to put down a deposit and pay the rest within a couple of days if you have not bought enough money with you.
7. Is it really safe to buy from these auctions?
Of course it is. you only risk is buying a lemon. But this can be avoided by bringing a mechanic with you to every auction you attend.
All in all, you can get the car of your dreams at a government car auction, depending on the day and which one you go to. The important things to always remember are to bring a mechanic with you and enough money to pay for the car.
