Van Auctions Help

Hi,
I am after a new (to me) van I have a budget max of £2,000 (I only want to spend £1500 - 1700 really).
My friend has recommened me to the BCA auction website. I can currently get a 2003 van for the money I have through a dealer but how much can I save from the auctions is it much? I know you can't say what the cost will be, but they have the same van registered 2005, would this be out of my budget?
The van I would like is a SWB HDI Boxer/Ducato/Relay.
Any opinions?
Thanks guys.

its hard to say, best thing is to go along and see as the prices at auction fluctate, one day it might got for 2k next day only a grand, all depends on who is there on the day and what other stock is available
You also need to beware at auction as all vehicles will be sold as seen and you dont always get a great deal of time to check them over,Everyones opinion is the most important.....no wonder nothing is ever agreed on.0 -
You have to remember that you will probably pay VAT on top of the auction price for a commercial vehicle + auctions fees, so you need to factor these prices in before you bid.
