** If you send a down payment for a vehicle and we do not win the Auction (or successfully purchase from other sources), we will hold the funds for future bids/purchases, until we find your desired car.
*** If we purchase a car you approve of, but you can not make full payment thereafter, the $2,000 deposit is held by Montu Motors. This will be used to send the car to auction and any losses we incur because of it.
