IVECO LWB - Ex Military Ambulance - low mileage

[Millie Master]

That starts to look damned expensive when you consider the on hammer extras of the 10% Buyers Premium and the 20% VAT!

It might be a good looking van and it has a low mileage, but never the less it is now 12 years old and surely that has to reflect in the final hammer price?

True, though usually with most military vehicles they are well looked after and serviced.

That looks like the 3rd time it has been in front of the same auctioneers hammer?
To me, it kind of sounds like the purchasers are finding some reason to reject the vehicle on post-sale examination? Don't know but I would be wary.

Might previously have never hit reserve price and you have a valid point Dave.

Mine was 10 years old with 50 th on clock and a new remanifactured eng,cost me £2400.
Then again things here go at half english prices once over 4 years old.

If you'd been to an auction you'd know the wheels would have to have fallen off for you to be allowed out of contract.

There are some clear reasons to reject a vehicle even if the wheels haven't fallen off (and yes, I have been to auctions)
