I may well join that one and have a look when I've got some cash to splash.

Had a glance through their T+C's but I can't see one detail which would be a PITA for me (I don't have a car license)... how long do you have after the auction to collect before they start charging you storage? (which I presume will be extortionate)

And, what is the usual buying charge?

You can join and see the lists by setting up an account, you only need to send them your license etc. etc. and the fee, to bid online.

Only downside is they are cat registered and you need to pay a joining fee (£30 per year) but they do a heck of a lot of bikes and the prices are cheap.
Copart's head office is about a mile from the house I was dragged up in. I have a couple of mates who work for them so I can ask questions about any stock you're interested in.

They used to be known as Universal Salvage, and before that I was forever in and out of their breaker's yard when they were called FJF Autos and Recovery.

Cheers lozzo, can you get em to keep an eye out for a cbr600rr (crash damaged) or any cheap cbr600 f-sports, or 600 f's. Maybe cheap 636's and GSX-R600's (K models on). Would prefer a honda though!

Regards
