One thing I speak about regularly is that all cars deserve to be seen in the best possible light when they’re listed. And more often than not, that comes down to the person representing them, be it the owner, the neighbo, the friend or indeed a powerseller.

We receive a surprising number of emails from readers asking where they should sell their cars and, increasingly, who they should trust to help them do it.

So if you're a PowerSeller or consignor on any of the online auction platforms and have capacity to take on additional cars, please get in touch by emailing us at [email protected]

I have to admit, I had absolutely no idea these things had such a following.

For those of you in the same boat, this is a 2002 Corbin Sparrow. It's a three-wheeled electric vehicle with 951 miles, thirteen dead batteries, one seat, and, judging by the comments section, one of the most passionate owner communities I've seen in a long time.

In fact, I spent more time reading the comments than looking at the car itself. That's usually a good sign.

What started life as a quirky electric commuter from the early 2000s has somehow become a cult collectible. There are owners discussing battery chemistry, offering to help the eventual buyer get it back on the road, debating originality versus upgrades, and welcoming prospective owners into what appears to be a very exclusive club.

My favorite comment was from an owner who said, "For that entire week I knew it would be mine." Imagine saying that about a three-wheeled electric vehicle that looks like it belongs in a Pixar movie.

The thing is, I completely understand it. BaT has a habit of doing this. One minute you're looking at a Ferrari F40, the next you're mentally budgeting for thirteen Optima batteries and wondering if your neighbors would appreciate seeing a bright yellow Corbin Sparrow parked in the driveway.

Would I drive it on the freeway? Absolutely not. Would I drive it to Cars & Coffee? Every single weekend.

With the current bid at $7k plus a few thousand dollars to sort the batteries and inevitable odds and ends, this isn't a cheap project. But then again, I suspect nobody is buying a Corbin Sparrow because it makes financial sense.

They're buying it because, somewhere along the way, they fell in love with one of the strangest vehicles America has ever produced. And honestly, isn't that what this hobby is all about?

This one needs the right owner. This 1983 Mercedes-Benz 300SD has had no bids, and I can understand why. The paint is tired, there is rust around the rear window, the interior needs work, and 227,000 miles is hardly going to frighten anyone into placing an early bid.

But this is also a no-reserve W126 with the OM617 diesel, and the seller appears to have spent money where it actually matters. The power steering box has been rebuilt, the cooling system refreshed, the transmission serviced, the injectors cleaned, the brakes done, and the list keeps going.

So yes, it needs love. Quite a lot of it.

But for the right person, that is the opportunity. Buy the car properly, improve it over time, and enjoy one of Mercedes-Benz’s toughest sedans while you do it.

It is not going to suit everyone, but it only needs one person who knows exactly what they are looking at.

There are project cars, and then there are pre-war Italian project cars.

This 1939 Fiat 1500 6C Barchetta currently sits at just $2,500, which feels ridiculous when you consider you're looking at a hand-built Italian roadster from before the Second World War. Of course, there is a reason for that. Nobody really knows who built it, it hasn't run in years, and there is still plenty of research left to be done.

In fact, one of my favorite lines in the listing is, "There is still a lot of research to be done especially in Romania."

Imagine buying a project car and immediately finding yourself researching Romanian coachbuilders.

I suspect this is one of those auctions where the right person finds it and immediately starts figuring out where it's going to live. Everyone else will look at it and see an expensive problem.

And perhaps they're right. But that's the thing about cars like this. Nobody buys them because they're sensible. They buy them because opportunities to own a pre-war Italian Barchetta, whatever its exact story may be, don't come along very often.
