              Lot, you expressly acknowledge that you do not rely on, and waive any claim for breach of, any such representations which are not so confirmed. 

      4.2  No variation to these Terms & Conditions, shall be binding unless agreed in writing between the authorised representatives of the Bidder and the Auctioneer. 

      4.3  Sales literature, price lists, listings, lots, and other documents issued or published by the Auctioneer or any associated platform in relation to the Goods are subject to 

              alteration without notice and do not constitute offers to sell the Goods which are capable of acceptance. 

      4.4  Any typographical, clerical or other accidental errors or omissions in any sales literature, auction listing, Lot, quotation, price list, acceptance of offer, invoice or other 

              document or information issued by the Auctioneer shall be subject to correction without liability on the part of the Auctioneer. 

      4.5  Illustrations, photographs or descriptions whether in catalogues, brochures, price lists, Lots, listings or other documents issued by the Auctioneer are intended as a guide only

              and shall not be binding on the Auctioneer. We reserve the right to utilise stock photography or library images. 

      4.6  All sales featured are strictly trade only, with every lot being offered and sold under trade only terms. This means that all consumer protections, rules, regulations and 

              cooling-off periods are not applicable to any sales listed. By registering on any platform, or bidding on any lot, you are expressly confirming that you do so as a trade entity

              and not as a consumer. 

      4.7   Any bids placed are binding and attributed to you as the Account Holder and cannot be withdrawn once submitted. By placing a bid you are confirming that you are in a 

              position to purchase the Goods for the price you have bid, plus any additional charges pursuant to these Terms & Conditions if you are selected as the ultimate buyer of such 

              Goods by application of the Terms & Conditions. 

5.   Account Holder Responsibilities and Authorisation 

       5.1   The Account Holder is responsible for all bidding activity associated with their Buyer’s Account. 

       5.2   The Account Holder authorises the Auctioneer to update their Buyer’s Account with additional information, such as contact details, company data, and address information 

               among others. 

       5.3   By registering, the Account Holder warrants and confirms they are either a body corporate or trade entity, and in the case of sole traders, at least 18 years of age and a 

                resident if the UK or Republic of Ireland., capable of entering the contractual obligations created by these Terms & Conditions.  

       5.4   The Account Holder commits to completing the purchase of any lot(s) on which they have placed Winning bids / Accepted Bids before the auction concludes. 

       5.5  The Auctioneer may request a copy of the Account Holder’s, or the Account Holder’s duly authorised officer, certificate of incorporation, drivers licence and / or a utility bill

               to verify the Account Holders identity and address, information for verification may also be requested by using AplyiD Biometrics.

6.   Lot Listing 

        6.1   The Auctioneer provides an item summary for all listed lots. This information and all its contents are intended for guidance purposes only and should not be relied upon as

                definitely. 

       6.2   The Auctioneer strongly urges all Account Holders who are prospective bidders to conduct their own due diligence on any Lots they are considering bidding on, before the 

                auction concludes and making a bid. This includes investigating aspects such as mileage, condition, warranty, year of manufacture, service records, MOT history, and any

                other pertinent checks of the Goods, any such checks are prohibited after bidding or the end of the sale. 

       6.3   It is the responsibility of the Account Holder to carry out such investigations prior to bidding on any Lot(s) of interest. Should any investigations occur after bids have been 

               placed, the Auctioneer will dismiss the inquiry, and all bids will remain binding on the Account Holder. 

7.   Viewing and Inspection of Lots 

       7.1   The Auctioneer recommends that all potential buyers view the Goods for sale on Lots listed within the auction to full ascertain their condition and specifications. 

      7.2   Viewings are available strictly by appointment only. Contact details for the Auctioneer appear in the ‘Important Sales Information’ section 3 above. 

      7.3   It is essential that viewing is completed before placing any bids on the Lots you are interested in and before the conclusion of the auction. Regrettably, viewings cannot be 

              accommodated after this stage. 

      7.4   The Auctioneer strongly encourages and welcomes inspections of any lots listed for sale. We invite assessments by the AA, RACm or any independent specialist on behalf of 

              the Account Holder considering to bid. Inspections may be supervised, should be made prior to making a bid, and Goods cannot be driven on the public highway as part of an 

              inspection as they may not leave the Auctioneers premises. 

      7.5   As this is a trade only auction the Auctioneer does not provide a grading system for any lots listed, underscoring the importance of such inspections. 

      7.6   Inspections must be arranged strictly by appointment and can only be facilitated when it is feasible for the Auctioneer. Whilst we will use reasonable endeavours to 

              accommodate viewing requests, they can only be accommodated on working days and in normal working hours when we are available. Any inspections must also be     

              conducted before the Account Holder commits to any bids and before the auction concludes. In the event the Account Holder elects to bid on a lot prior to inspection, they do           

              so on the basis that they will not be permitted to retract such a bid at a later date, following inspection or otherwise. 

      7.7    In the event you are unable to view a lot in person, or the Auctioneer is unable to offer a viewing at a time suitable to you, a video of the lot or alternatively a live video call 

               may be arranged with the Auctioneer. Please note however, our inability to offer a video or video call is not a contractual basis to withdraw a bid. 

8.   Special Conditions & Auctioneer Remarks

       8.1    Lots marked ‘SC’ shall carry Special Conditions in addition to the standard conditions set out in these Terms & Conditions.

      8.2    Special Conditions refer to additional information applicable to the lot such as; Collection / Delivery fees, Date or Location, Special Conditions can also be referring to any

               will be chargeable to the Buyer in addition to the standard Buyers Premium Commission. Any ‘Special Conditions’ charged will be issued on the Buyers Invoice ‘2 of 2’ See 

               13.2.2 - Special Conditions shall apply in addition to these terms and shall be binding upon you as a Bidder, so Account Holders should take care to read the full listing of any 

               Lot and in the event the initials ‘SC’ appear within the item summary under ‘Auctioneers Remarks’ should refer specifically to the ‘Special Conditions Reference’ found within 

               our ‘Important Sale Information’ to confirm what Special Conditions apply to any said lot.

      8.3   Any information provided by the Vendor regarding specific lots will be included in the ‘Auctioneers Remarks’ within the Item Summary. 

9.    Lot Images 

       9.1   Images of lots are provided by the Auctioneer and our Vendors primarily for illustrative purposes. Therefore, they may not accurately reflect any lots true condition at the time 

              of photography due to factors such as lighting, weather conditions, and camera quality. 

      9.2   To protect against fraudulent use, the majority of lot images will feature a Watermark & / or Logo Showroom Plates.

      9.3   Notwithstanding the use of watermarks, copyright and all other associated intellectual property rights in any images on Lots belong to the Auctioneer. No images may be 

               reproduced or copied without the express written consent of the Auctioneer. In the event an image is reproduced or used without such express permission, the infringing party 

               agree to pay the Auctioneer royalties, to be assessed at the Auctioneers sole discretion, in respect of the use of such images and authorises the Auctioneer to invoice them  

               for the same. 

      9.4   Please be aware that some lots in the auction may be represented with ‘Library Images’, Indicating that the images do not accurately depict the condition, features, or

              specification of the Goods in the Lot. Accordingly, Account Holders considering bidding on Lots should arrange inspections, in accordance with the provisions of section 7 

              above, to satisfy themselves of the exact nature and condition of Goods in Lots. 

10.   Auction Process

      10.1   Auctions will be hosted on a Platform. 

     10.2   Some of the Platforms used are not owned or controlled by the Auctioneer, and accordingly the Auctioneer is not responsible for their uptime, availability or functionality. 

     10.3   Account Holders may bid on Lots for Goods in accordance with instructions on the Platform. 

     10.4   The end time of an auction of Lot is automatically extended each time a bid is made (if the remaining time is less than 10 minuets, this is referred to as the ’10 Minuets

               Bidding Rule’). Time can also be extended or shortened by the Auctioneer at any point, at its sole discretion, and all bids made remain valid and open for acceptance by the

               Auctioneer.  

11.   Winning Bids

               they may still yet have their bid accepted as a Winning / Accepted Bid.

     12.3   When bidding on any Lot(s), being the highest bidder is not a prerequisite for winning the item. The Auctioneer retains the discretion to present all bids to or Vendor(s) for 

               consideration. Consequently, all bids placed by the Account Holder on single or multiple Lots remain valid for 48 hours following the conclusion of the sale. Account Holders
