just for a laugh, no really, put your tintop details to we-buy-any-car-dot-com.

Online valuations are subject to in-branch inspection and contract and include a contribution from your road fund licence refund. An administration fee applies on purchase. Based on a purchase price of £475, an administration fee of £49.99 including VAT will apply.


so I'll be lucky to see £ 400 for my 1994 volvo 850 T5, 110 k miles

err. I don't think so. (just spent £ 200 on new tyres).

pug 106 100 quid


bob tatt - 22/5/10 at 08:52 AM

sister took her xara there just to get rid before the mot ran out. I trailered it over for her no insurance, they offered 300 on the web when we got there it was a grotty office with two smarmy young lads not what it depicts on the telly. Never drove the car i took it off the trailer and parked it up. I had to be sopmewhere so i left her and her husband to sort it out with smarmy no1 and 2. When they got back they had the princly sum of £ 50 after all the fees had been deducted and they knocked the price down to 150.
And they had to wait a week for the money if they wanted it within 2 days it was another 30 quid. I would rather have torched the ruddy thing than sell at that price it was worth more as scrap which is probably what happened to it.


BigFaceDave - 22/5/10 at 09:04 AM

I had a LPG'd Subaru legacy and they offered me £10 after fees! so much for £50 to £100,000! Still the guy that bought it off ebay seemed quite happy with the £1150 that he got it for


MikeRJ - 22/5/10 at 09:05 AM

They are complete rip-off merchants.


fha772 - 22/5/10 at 09:42 AM

Very clean BMW 850csi 1990, FSH, 50k, 8+ months T&T, Genuine factory fitted A C Schnitzer alloys and kit.

They offered my mate £800 for it!!!

He was despairate to sell, and as the numpty said"It is 20 years old mate, only really worth scrap value, but i'll do you a favour" !!!

My dad now owns a mint BMW 850csi, for £2000!!!
(still silly cheap at that!!)


scootz - 22/5/10 at 10:07 AM

Offered my sis the same as she was being offered elsewhere to trade-in her low-miles 2 year old Corsa. Very quick process, no haggling and had the money in her account the same day.

Can't really complain with that!

Lets be honest... a dealer of any description is not going to pay out what you think it's worth for some of the cars mentioned in this thread!

Richard Quinn - 22/5/10 at 01:11 PM

Offered my missus £800 for her Hyundai Coupe. She sold it privately for £2100. Depends whether you want the potential agro and numpties associated with a private sale.


bigrich - 22/5/10 at 02:53 PM

54 plate Astra Club cdti estate, 90k £3195, only paid 3500 12 months ago so a fair price if i was going to sell.

If you read the link from MikeRJ you'll see that you are unlikely to get what the website tells you. Probably closer to £2000.


contaminated - 22/5/10 at 03:58 PM

£2600 for my 05 Megane
£2185 for the 03 Zafira

A bit gutted about the bus. It has a 2.2 ecotec in it that I want to put in the Tiger at some stage, so I'm trying to convince SWMBO that it's worth nothing!

speed8 - 22/5/10 at 04:41 PM

Absolute tosh. £22425. There's no way on earth you would find one in the country for close to that price.
I knew it would be bad but I didn't think it would be that bad!!!!

ofcourse they are not a charity but a businees. For the gullible and feeble minded, the way they advertise makes you think they are doing you a favour.

If you don't want the hassle of selling privately or at a dealer and a quite happy to loose a significant bit of money, then I they do the job.

Quiute hsocking how low are some of the valuations .. .and evne lower when so,m,me spotty teenage oik examines your car.

1999 primera estate 130K miles full MOT £50

Valuation process complete
Thanks Mr woods for completing your online valuation - your personal reference for this valuation is WBAC16667618.

Driving something special?
Unfortunately we're unable to give you an instant online valuation for your car at present. The most common reason for this is if you're driving a prestige or high-powered car. Don't despair! One of our valuers will contact you before the end of the next working day to provide you with a personal, no obligation valuation once we've been able to look at the details a little more closely.

Will be interesting to see if they contact me haha

Oops sorry for bumping the old thread.... forgot i was browsing the archives!
