BCA auctions - when do you break even?

[Tray89]

Hiya, this is a bit of a broad brush question, but bear with me please. On average, how many cars a month get you to a break even position, when you look at a year? I understand that there is a lot of monthly fluctuation in both buying and selling - the sort of cars I am thinking of are small cars usually bought as a first car or a second family car, such as a Fiesta, sold for around 6-8k so no need for financing

I find that the more cars I buy the further away I am from breaking even. For some reason this doesn't stop me.

So I take it you do it for fun then. My idea is more to realise a profit (even if modest!). And strangely enough I don't see the fees for silver, gold, etc anymore on the BCA website. They have only blue / basic. I'm sure they had them before...
