That's because they're driven by numpties:

Oddly appealing and why, if I had the cash, alcohol and auctions would be a terrible idea:

1970 Jaguar 420G

This 420G is described by the vendor as a very solid car all round. It has been off the road for many years. Little documentation comes with the car except for the first V5 and MoT history print-out covering 2006 only when it failed it's test. The mileage at this time was recorded as 1,145 miles...

A lot of the results are just at top end of estimate plus the 8% + vat buyer's premium. Auctions at ACA used to struggle to meet low end of estimate. Either estimates are more realistic or, given it is a bit out of the way in King's Lynn, the move to online bidding has helped push prices up as there are now more eyes on the sales.

@Doctor Houx will have a better insight as he is a regular in person attendee and buyer/seller at ACA.

Auction prices across the board the past 12 months have been strong, some think due to lockdown boredom and self-employed spending bounce bank loans etc.

Apparently used car prices in Oz are up 35% because you can’t order a new one in the spec you want for months!
Hands up, I called that wrong.

Everything is only worth what someone is willing to pay, so on the day that is what they were worth, that's not say they will be worth that tomorrow.

My experience at ACA when we bought the T2 was most stuff went for silly money either way though, I guess that is the nature of auctions. Alex got a bargain with the camper as it was almost the last motor of the day and everyone had walked out after the last exciting motor Aston DB went over the block.

Basically he got it for the same money two shells LHD Cali’ imports unrestored each achieved. They were little more than VIN numbers on wheels.

It always said that you should never lose control of yourself at an auction, so my admiration goes to those who just walk away once it's gone over their limit.

Just one more bid sir? You never know....

 

[MrRMB]

25K for a Fiesta? I'm speechless.

I think that is right. Lots more bored people at home looking on line. Prior to lockdown, most of the sales here were in person and now all online. I’m amazed at some of the prices for some real dross!
