    I’ve spent over two months trying to sell my car. Waste of time trying to do it privately. Finally got 2k more than wbac using Motorway trade bidding. Next time that’s what I’ll do at the start. Esp now I’ve used the system once and learnt a lot.

    Never used them but I noticed the other day they valued mines at £2500 more than WBAC.

     

    What have you gone for instead?

    Hi Turbo.
    I still have a similar car originally used by my son. When he wanted to sell it I kept it as it’s a bit newer and more comfortable suspension than mine was.
    the same  dealer who got my car paid me a lot more via Motorway than they themselves would direct, so the bidding system must be real and certainly worked for me.

    how do they give an accurate price? as just bidding from pics would be impossible,like we buy any car,do they give you an approx price then knock money off for stone chips etc ?

    @ da Radman, did you manage to get yourself a new Focus in the end then?



    No nothing.

    No Mods. No rockers. Just a chunky knob, thats now been replaced by an RS knob innit.

    No tackiness.

    Std as Ford intended, but with a space saver wheel and jack and nuts and wheel brace. oh.. and flaps, a man has got to have flaps.

    Innit?

    Yes Radman. Bid from pics. They ask for a photo of every mark. They like Live Photos uploaded via a silhouette sent to your screen. Then a phone interview.
    On  collection I got a driver arriving by public transport and a quick check. He was clueless. Car was quite dirty. Didn’t lift the Bonnet! I got paid and he drove  it off. He was an oddball with 9 points and no sense.
