The short answer to this question is no. However let’s unpack this some more.
Often when someone discovers they have a major mechanical failure with a vehicle that exceeds the budget for repairs they are faced with only a few options to resolve this issue.
One of the most common solutions to this is to trade the vehicle in on a new or used vehicle at a dealership. The reason for this is the car salesmen very rarely pick up on the fault or even if they do still offer a decent price on the traded in vehicle and the owner is no longer facing this problem.
The next step in the process is normally the vehicle is inspected by a mechanic employed by the dealership. At this point the mechanical fault is normally discovered. If the dealer feels that repairing this vehcile and still turning a profit is out of the question, the vehicle is send to wholesale.
From wholesale the car normally goes to auction where a new unsuspecting retail owner or used car yard inherits the mechanical fault.
In short there is a reason the vehicle is at the auctions. It’s the age old case of “if it sounds too good to be true” it probably is.
Occasionally a bargain in good condition can be found but this is few and far between.
