Want a car, a truck, a motorcycle? An ATV?
Suffolk County police have impounded a bunch and this Saturday will auction them off — 125 in all — at the police impound yard in Westhampton. The auction at the yard, 100 Old Country Rd., begins at 9 a.m.
Prospective buyers can preview the impounded inventory Friday from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Police said all vehicles will be sold “as is.” All sales are final. Buyers must register to bid. Registration will be held during preview hours and before the start of the auction. Proper identification is required to register.
Buyers also can register as a business, but must produce a valid state tax certificate to do so.
A list of available vehicles, as well as terms, can be found on the police website at suffolkpd.org.
