Cape Town Wesbank car auctions are where you can get your dream vehicle for a reasonable price. The bank repossessed vehicles are always sold at a good price and there are plenty of these auctions available in the Western Cape; FNB take part in these too.

Remember that everyone is there for the same reason you are, so if you want a specific vehicle, you will have to outbid them.

It will depend on where in the Mother City you reside, but Cape Town Wesbank car auctions generally have different venues, you just have to see which of them you can get to. Find out where in the Western Cape all the bank repossessed vehicles will be auctioned, and make sure you are there.

Buy Bank Repossessed Cars at Auctions in Cape Town

Buy bank repossessed cars at auctions such as Burchmores in the Cape Town area and you could find yourself purchasing a fairly new vehicle at a wholesale price. This is a great way to purchase a motor car or motorbike at the moment as many people are sadly having to give their vehicles back and cannot seem to find ways to avoid repossession. You may have already heard about the frequent Birchmores vehicle auctions from the radio advertisements or word of mouth that are taking place near the city every week.

If you are thinking of buying bank repossessed cars at auctions in the Cape Town area from an event held by Birchmores or similar then there are a few guidelines you need to stick to. Firstly, although you are allowed to view vehicles usually a day before an event and inspect the body, engine etc, you are not allowed to take a repossessed car for a test drive. So if you are a little unsure of what to look for when purchasing a second hand vehicle then take somebody with you that has a little more knowledge and experience. Remember, one of the reasons that the previous driver could not find a way to avoid bank repossession of a vehicle was because they were having financial issues, meaning that regular servicing and repairs may also have been neglected.

You can get finance from the bank to purchase a repossession, particularly from ABSA, Standard Bank, Nedbank and FNB who are likely to have vehicle financing kiosks or desks on the floor at an auction event. A bank guaranteed cheque is one of the ways to secure a part in the actual bidding although we advise that you spend time at one or two events as a spectator first if you are a little inexperienced to learn how the process works. Usually, Burchmores, Aucor and other auctioning companies will have staff on hand to help advise and guide you in your decision so that you are assured of picking up a bargain if interested in buying a bank repossessed car or motorbike from auctions in Cape Town and the surrounding suburbs.

Cape Town car auctions selling repossessed vehicles from ABSA, Standard Bank, Nedbank and FNB are held at various locations on a regular basis. Most pre-owned vehicles that have been taken back by the banks are in a good condition although some will have been neglected when it comes to services and repairs due to the previous driver having a lack of funds. For this reason it is wise if you are not an expert yourself to take a mechanic with you or somebody who knows exactly what things to look for and check when wanting to bid for and buy a second hand motor car.

Keep in mind that vehicles sold at Cape Town car auctions will not be available for you to test drive as there are just too many makes and models and such a lot of people interested in buying that it would be nothing but chaos to let customers test drive them. You will however be allowed to start the engine and check for any unusual noises, oil leaks and other potential problem areas. Our advice is to not go for bidding on older models and try and look for the bargains which are less than about 6-10 months old as even if these have been a little neglected, it should have no effect on the condition or performance.

It is also wise to attend one or two events before joining in with the bidding to observe and learn how the process works, especially as there are often second hand car dealers to bid against who are well experienced when it comes to these events. There are usually staff on the floor to assist you in the process and explain how deposits, bidding, finance and payments work so you will not be left completely in the dark. Lists and catalogues of repossessed cars sold by Standard Bank, FNB, ABSA and Nedbank are available from the associated websites for potential clients looking to purchase a vehicle at one of the many Cape Town car auctions in and around the city.
