I've just seen a car up for sale by auction ( Seized by bailiff )2008 fiat 500
In good condition around £700
this has serious scrapes on both rear wings, no keys, no V5 etc.
I'd be shocked if it makes > £350
from that auctioneers fees, removal fees etc
I'd lay a hefty bet it won't take more than £100 off the debt
Honestly in this case I feel for the debtor, as if this was the only thing worth taking then they must be in a pretty poor financial state.
I really feel that it's shamefull that something worth this little can be taken and possibly now prevents that person getting to work, visiting family etc. I've recently seen a couple of flash range rovers and a ferrarri with another auctioneer for debts, and they didn't affect me, but this little old car is quite upsetting.

My mates an mot inspector. He had a car come in a few days ago which he refused to test. Car was a mess, kids seat in back, McDonald's wrappers knee deep, chips stuck in the seat belt catches, ashtray overpriced all over centre console. God knows what the owners house was like or the kids future.
