I live quite close to Brightwells and have visited a couple of times. I'd say the LR worth having go for top dollar and you can certainly buy a crock. One I liked the look of didn't reach its reserve of about 2k and I went to look at it again as they operate a system where you can buy unsold items.

Well they were VERY helpful but the 200 TDI was chuffing away like a good 'un but there was no way you'd have known that at auction. You'd have bought a doggy TDI for too much money.

Locally to Leominster there are a coiuple of dealers who can be OK but you guys who are thinking of going there are quite a way away I think.

Yes your right i'm miles away,to far to come back empty handed,it's not really a viable option,trying not to buy work.

drmike:
Not the right position to be in at an auction!

When I bought my 90 I had to go to London from Worcester area and I had also looked in Neath, Ross on Wye etc. To get a good vehicle you'll either pay for it in cash or time and travel and even then you can't be certain you've done well!

--- Quote from: "Eeyore" ---Places like SHB 4x4 (three dealerships in the UK). Their stock is all ex-hire, so often remarkabley untouched. The slightly more battered vehicles of theirs get sold off by other parties.

They're also one of the few places that seem to regularly offer 110 HTs (which are generally like rocking horse poop to obtain).

I bought my 110 from SHB at Castle Greasley and am very happy with it.

It's been worked but not abused and the biggest problem I've had so far was fitting a stereeo as it's the lowest spec station wagon ever made.
