Hi,

Does anyone know of good auctions or any other places for buying used/salvage cars for resale. I don't mind paying a monthly charge for a good website and can buy upto 5-10 cars at a time.

many thanks for your help.

    Why? Where to?

    Don't the Japanese get rid of all their cars overseas after a couple of years?

    There's a hiding to nowhere. Most Japanese sell their cars for export once they're 5 years old (AFAIR) as they have the mother of all MOTs to go through which costs a shedload.

    The export market is flooded with them.

    No, you asked if they did - that's what a "?" does on the end of a sentence, turns it into a question rather than a statement of fact.
