Suffolk police to auction seized vehicles
Want a car for a steal?
Well, Suffolk County police won't be auctioning stolen cars Saturday at the department's Impound Section yard on Old Country Road in Westhampton but they will be selling vehicles seized in police auctions.
The vehicles will be sold as is -- for whatever the market will bear. Which could mean a deal for winning bidders.
Police said the auction will feature 125 vehicles, including sedans, pickup trucks, vans, sport utility vehicles and motorcycles. All sales are final.
A preview will he held Thursday and Friday between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m. The auction starts at 9 a.m. on Saturday.
Potential buyers must register to bid and registration will be held during the preview hours, as well as prior to the start of the auction Saturday.
Proper identification is required to register. Businesses registering for the auction must provide a valid state tax certificate, police said.
