Last chance to bid on memorabilia & merchandise for Bushfire Appeal
March 5, 2009 by Paul Maric
Ladies and gentlemen, it’s your last chance to bid on well over $500 worth of automotive merchandise, featuring a massive chunk of Volkswagen gear, things from Skoda, Lexus and Land Rover.
One of the big draw cards to this auction is a signed copy of Ari Vatanen’s book, “Every Second Counts.”
For those of you who aren’t aware, Ari Vatanen is the legendary driver who piloted the 600hp Peugeot rally car in the video “Climb Dance.” If that video doesn’t give you chills, I don’t know what will.
Here’s a video of the man at work:
The auction finishes TODAY at 2PM. In addition to the auction, if you are located in Victoria, we will collect you from home or work in a BMW vehicle on Sunday, March 8th to take part in a thank you lunch which will include the Melbourne CarAdvice team and the winners of our HSV and FPV auctions, which have netted a combined total of just under $800.

- Signed Ari Vatanen book – “Every Second Counts”
