• Questions will not be taken from the floor once the auction is in progress. If you do have last minute questions please speak to a member of DNG Flanagan Ford staff. If in doubt regarding any aspect of the lot do not bid.
• The auctioneer will take all bids & the gavel will fall once the highest bid is achieved. The gavel will not fall until the auctioneer warns bidders by saying ‘going once, going twice, going three times…SOLD’. If you are the highest bidder at this stage you have now bought the lot, assuming that the reserve price has been met or exceeded.
