Question 1

Where do the seized cars put up for auction come from?

Accepted Answer

Passenger vehicles auctioned publicly originate from seizures of individuals or companies for unpaid debts. These debts can be automotive finance loans, bank foreclosures through the courts, or unpaid taxes owed to the Tax Agency and [Social Security](/en/subastas-seguridad-social). This section focuses exclusively on passenger vehicles (hatchbacks, saloons, estates and SUVs).

Question 2

How much can I save by buying a car at a public auction?

Accepted Answer

Acquiring a seized car can yield discounts of 30–50% compared to second-hand dealers or the traditional used-car market. To ensure the purchase is profitable, calculate your maximum bid by subtracting Transfer Tax (ITP), any outstanding road tax and the cost of a mechanical inspection, as the vehicle is delivered without warranty.

Question 3

Can I see, test or start the car before bidding?

Accepted Answer

As a general rule, no. Seized passenger [vehicles](/en/subastas-publicas-vehiculos) are usually held in sealed municipal or judicial storage facilities and are auctioned under "as-is" conditions (in their current physical and mechanical state). Although the auction notice sometimes allows an exterior visual inspection, you will not be able to start the engine or test-drive the vehicle before placing your bid.
