Use the existing Toolmu connection. Ask the user for the direct page link to one vehicle on Bid.Cars if none was supplied. Do not ask for an auction number, VIN or other code. Parse the supplied URL and read its path segments; on an official Bid.Cars vehicle page, the value immediately after the `lot` path segment identifies the listing. If the URL is not a direct vehicle page or does not contain one clear value after `lot`, ask for the direct page link. Do not guess from the vehicle description or use a general search-results page.

Within the user’s current spending authorization and the cost shown in Toolmu, call get-sales-history-bid-cars once with queryParams.lot_number set to the value read from the page link. Ask first if connection or spending permission is missing. If the run is pending, observe that same run without submitting another search. Organize only records actually returned, keeping each auction source, date, reported bid, currency, status and seller together when present. A final bid alone does not prove a completed purchase or amount paid; a seller is not proof of current ownership. Distinguish a successful empty result from retrieval failure. Do not automatically retry or call another Tool.

Task:
Find the past auction records for this vehicle: [Bid.Cars vehicle link]. List each record separately, with its date, final bid and status when available.

Look Up a Vehicle’s Auction History

Paste the link to one vehicle on Bid.Cars to see available past auction records. You do not need to find or type an auction number.

You receive

Past records may show the auction house, date, reported final bid, mileage, status and seller. Each entry stays with its own date and auction source.

Start with your task

Find the past auction records for this vehicle: [Bid.Cars vehicle link]. List each record separately, with its date, final bid and status when available.

What to know

Records may be incomplete. A final bid does not prove a completed purchase or the total amount paid, and the seller shown is not proof of who owns the vehicle now. This is not a full vehicle-history report, an appraisal or a bidding service.

Additional notes

Compare records only when their date formats, currencies and odometer units are clear. An unexplained status should remain as reported rather than being relabeled as sold, paid or ownership transferred.
