Don’t you just hate it when you see an auction result that you couldn’t participate in because you didn’t know about it?

Would you have put a bid in?

Would have checked the petty cash box for sure.

I know. It would have made a perfect replacement for our C Class estate

But Ant, if you had it then you’d want to drive it all the time, and before you know it the trailer would be hitched up and you’d be waiting for your ticket on the weighbtidge at the local quarry. That’s no way to treat the Vito

I’m surprised it didn’t sell for more. I was prepared to go a little higher than on the Uhlemhaut last Spring, as I believe it’s more special.

Once Shelby’s bidder entered the chat I knew it was game over and didn’t bid again. Shelby usually has the bidder with the deepest pockets.
