I purchased three vehicles through Cars & Classic auctions: a Cadillac, a Moto Guzzi, and a BMW M3 Cabrio.
Out of these three purchases, only the Moto Guzzi was as described and in proper condition.
The BMW M3 Cabrio has a non-functioning roof, which was not disclosed anywhere in the auction listing.
The Cadillac is an even bigger issue. It was presented as being in very good, drivable condition, with only minor electrical issues on the windows. In reality, the car is an unfinished project in very poor condition and far from what was described. The photos made the vehicle look excellent, but what arrived does not match that at all and gives the impression that the listing was misleading.
I attempted to resolve this situation in a calm and reasonable manner. However, Cars & Classic redirected me to the vehicle owner instead of taking any responsibility. If I had known or dealt directly with the owner, I would have inspected the vehicle in person before purchase.
The fact is, I paid the money to the auction platform based on the listing and photos they published, and I believe they should stand behind the accuracy of what they present.
This experience has left me feeling misled, disappointed, and without any real support or solution.
I want to warn all potential buyers: do not rely solely on the photos provided in auction listings. Arrange independent inspections and verify everything in detail before committing.
I am sharing this to make sure others do not go through the same situation as I did.
