Sorry, never bought a car at auction so I would be of no help, but welcome to the forum anyways.

Yeah depending on the condition/mileage who knows, maybe noone will bid and you will be the winner! So good luck! Remember, if its not this monte, another will come along to be patient!

BE CAREFUL! There were some public auto auctions where I lived on the southside of chicago. Almost all of these cars were repossed cars, or stolen cars that here found then sold there. There were also cars that were sold there that were at the dealer auctions that no one wanted. If you are going to buy from a authorized auto dealer auction where dealers go, you have a better chance for getting a better car. The public auctions, the customer was not alot to look inside the car or anything, they could only see it in the lot, and watch it drive up. These cars were garbage. The dealer ones, the better ones, would have warranties and everything is something messes up on the car. Just watch where you buy from.

Also give the people on the forum users a bit of time to read the post. Not too many people will be reading the post in 1 hour. Sometimes it takes a day or 2.
