May 27 - June 2, 2024

1. Auctions sales statistics

The volume of cars at auctions has rebounded and returned to its earlier levels, ensuring a dependable supply of vehicles. Despite this temporary dip, there have been no significant disruptions in vehicle availability. Both auctions have consistently maintained a flow of cars, contributing to seamless operations and a stable inventory for buyers.
Performance metrics, including the number of cars sold and approval ratings, have not only weathered the minor reduction in car volume but are also showing signs of improvement and growth.
In summary, insurance auto auctions provide a stable and consistent environment, with evidence of car volume returning to previous levels. Operations continue to run smoothly, and key performance indicators are not only stable but also showing positive growth trends.

2. Car of the week

My personal pick of the week!

1999 LAMBORGHINI DIABLO

Final bid: $249,000 USD

Shift into a time capsule of pure Italian rage. The 1999 Lamborghini Diablo is a drop-top dream, a wolf in sheep's clothing. Beneath its sleek lines lurks a beast, a snarling V12 promising a wild ride that rewrites the rules of speed and luxury. It's not just a car, it's a statement.

3. The most interesting lots

The best cars this week that deserve your attention

2024 TESLA CYBERTRUCK

Final bid: $126,000 USD

The 2024 Tesla Cybertruck All-Wheel Drive Pickup isn't your ordinary truck. It's a head-turning electric leviathan built for toughness and adventure. Imagine a stainless-steel fortress on wheels, conquering any terrain with all-wheel-drive grip. This electric bruiser offers impressive towing capacity and a surprising range, all wrapped in a futuristic design that guarantees heads will turn wherever you go.

2021 AUDI RS 6 AVANT

Final bid: $57,975 USD

The 2021 Audi RS 6 Avant 4.2 might be a mouthful, but it embodies high performance in a practical package. A sleeper wagon with a monstrous twin-turbo V8 under the hood, disguised by a sleek and functional design. Don't be fooled by its cargo space; this Audi devours the road with neck-snapping acceleration. It's the perfect blend of practicality for hauling the family and groceries, all while delivering exhilarating performance that puts a smile on your face.

2011 FERRARI CALIFORNIA

Final bid: $47,500 USD

Ditch the roof, embrace the wind. The 2011 Ferrari California GT is a retractable hardtop masterpiece. Unlike its prancing horse brethren, it tames its wild side with comfortable seating for four. But don't be fooled by its civility - a Ferrari V8 lurks beneath the hood, promising a symphony of power and speed whenever you unleash it. It's the perfect marriage of open-air exhilaration and Italian pedigree.

4. Scam of the week

5. Cars with the most bids

Cars that have the most bids are the ones that are most popular among buyers and have the most competition for purchase. It's important to note that just because a car has many bids, it doesn't necessarily mean it's the best deal or in the best condition. It's always important to thoroughly inspect the vehicle and do research on its history before making a bid.
