I shown our lass this the other day with the "I wish face" 
What takes your fancy Oz?
Wouldn't it be cool to have a full size car (minus the engine) sat on show on the front garden. If only I had a front garden big enough.

There is so much good stuff on that site Andy that I will need to be disciplined in my actions or it will end in tears 
I know what you mean buddy. I'd be tempted if I had money to do so.
That race simulator stands out.
Or how about some slicks for the Saab.

Going to make a little list tomorrow afternoon when I have a little more quality time to myself. I have a feeling that the bidding will be fast and furious on some of the items
I'm lethal at auctions, they do something to my brain and I just go craZY!
Ebay is just the same, the amount of times i've bid on something that is just expiring that I had only just seen and didn't really want is unreal. I found having no money to be a cure! Bidding on everything is also a good way to have no money so the disease is part of the cure.

Oh I bet it will. I bet most things will demand a good price.
Do you know if you have to be registered to just watch the auction? I know one would obviously have to register to bid, but I wouldn't mind being nosey during the auction.

Not sure, I am sure once the 16th arrives and the webcast starts we will find out. Better not say anything to her indoors as she will keep a beady eye on me
Ahhhhh mums the word then. 
Marussia closing down sale, everything must go!
Steering wheel is interesting, although missing many buttons.
Salivated over some of the tools and transporters
When bidding for a car for the garden or lounge, bear in mind that there is a 10% buyers premium and VAT to factor in, adding 32% to your winning bid!

I can just see that transporter sat on your driveway OG, waiting to whisk the Elan off to the strip.

So can I, so can I
Do you think you will have a cheeky bid then?
Be interesting to see what things make on auction day?
Some of the items could well be worth alot of money in the future. Surprising really that they actually are selling the stuff off.
I wonder why no buyer was found?

I regularly buy F1 parts off Ebay, the carbon fiber and titanium parts can quite often be modified and re-purposed.
I didn't realise there was F1 stuff on eBay. I will have a look. However, I will check with you before bidding on anything
Well yeah you have a very valid point. I wonder why none of the big teams have gone the way Red Bull have with Torro Rosso mind.
Actually i'd forgotten all about this.
Os did you end making any cheeky bids?

Did not reach the reserve. Looking at many of the items for sale & the associated prices, I don't really think they were keen on selling TBH.
That's a shame. Was the prices quite high then?

I thought so, if I did not know any better I would say they were trying to put people off as their hearts just wasn't in the sale of their treasured possessions.
They went into administration so they have no say in the selling of the assets. Some items sold;

There is another sale in January.

"Other items sold include a 2010 steering wheel which fetched £2,200 and a driver's suit and boots which went for £700."
That drivers suit and boots sounds like a good deal to me.
As long as it means actual race suit. I'd imagine they cost alot more than that new!
