David Ives Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 does anyone have a copy of julys tender list as i would like to work out what the bedfords went for but need to know their lot numbers to find the prices they went for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sirhc Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 David, Sorry David, have thrown the catalogue away. Are you planning on buying one in the next sale? If you are you need to go for a look. Talk to Douglas and he will give you an idea of what to bid. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Ives Posted August 12, 2009 Author Share Posted August 12, 2009 yes chris im thinking of one but i need to know what they averaged at or would it be better to get one of the direct release ones i know i would have to go up to have a look and would have to get the time off this time so i dont end up with two Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormin Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 yes chris im thinking of one but i need to know what they averaged at or would it be better to get one of the direct release onesi know i would have to go up to have a look and would have to get the time off this time so i dont end up with two Buy two and sell the other for profit! I've seen people trying to sell them around the 5 grand mark about twice what they go for at Witham's. If you can do that it's effectively Buy One Get One Free as the Lancashire Hotpots would say. I got a mint very low mileage one for £2000+vat in tender sale but that was 2 years ago. It depends if you really want one you see or are prepared to wait. I put what I thought was a low bid in and was very surprised to get the vehicle for the money. Lot's of others were looking at it and another one, the best two by far in that tender. As Chris says you've really got to go and look, definately still bargains to be had and much better value than buying one of the refurbed ones in my opinion.

sirhc Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 I think you can still get nice ones in the tender for around £2000. Beware though, they are putting less in the tenders and quite a lot are LHD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazzaw Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 For what it is worth we have just backloaded 20 Harley bikes from my unit and 4 servicing trailers (the ones used in the field to lube and service vehicles by REME) the bikes are all very low mileage 4 to 7K and full servicing history- coming to a Withams auction real soon - other RLC units have done the same so there should be loads -spread the word.

Stone Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 That's a lot of bikes! :shocked: What's it being replaced with? Did they ever find an acceptable diesel bike? The trial models weren't exactly getting rave reviews... Stone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papav66 Posted August 13, 2009 Share Posted August 13, 2009 cor, never seen so many bikes, if they sell those it will just flood the market, bad news for those who already have one as they will see their value drop like a stone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
