Colorado has several public auto auctions for individuals in need of a vehicle. At a Colorado public auto auction, inexpensive vehicles can be purchased through a bidding process rather than negotiating with a sales person. Vehicles are available for inspection prior to the sale and interested buyers can find out any vehicle problems during the inspection period. Buyers should be prepared to pay for the vehicle at the auction.
