If you ever consider selling your spyders, drop me a PM? Thanks

Lets hope this doesn't happen though

Fair enough, but if hypothetically, the car is involved in an accident before next week are they still going to take it as PX at the agreed amount?

Paid valuation from CAP says £14,550 to £15,150 whereas Glass's one is £13,473. I have priced it with Glass's as I think thats realistic

According to Glass's valuation the car is £13,473. If it was for the sake of a couple of hundred I wouldn't be too bothered. I think if they were to try it on then all that I would end up losing is the £250 deposit if I withdrew. Until I am actually on site & sign the paper work the PCP deal will not be valid. I'm not the sort of person who gets pushed into doing anything

Cheers, the car is immaculate so anything less than the PX offered, well I would be coming back up the road with it & demanding my deposit back too

Thanks, definitely worth a try

No that refers to what my local PX was against. Hence why I'm buying nearly new instead

Thanks for the thought however.. Last week I went into the local skoda dealer & got some figures against a citigo on PCP. I was offered £11.5K :( They have an almost identical one to mine in their showroom. I was offered £12.5K against a New Mini at approx cost of £20K locally. This is my train of thought too, If I can get a bit more for it privately locally, I could fly down & save myself some driving

George, I already have a guaranteed PX for it at the Dealers in Manchester. It will have the remainder of the Skoda Warranty as its only 8 months old. I have stuck it up on Gumtree & PH. Also did a CAP Valuation through Autotrader but that is unrealistically high IMHO so have price it as per Glass's Valuation

The screen price of the car is within the middle of the range that Glass Valuation says it should be - hence why I didn't try & move them on it. My PX wasn't far short of glass premium valuation I had done. However , theoretically I should be able to get £1300 more for it private. Just off the phone with the Dealer thats fine as long as I bring deposit Thanks for the advice

I have put a deposit down on a Mini Cooper D & am taking it on PCP over 2 yrs. I have agreed a trade in value for the VRS but the Mini Dealership are just punting this to a trader as they are not allowed to put anything other than Minis on their forecourt. Am I within my rights to still try & sell this privately? I am paying the advertised price for their car so there was no discounted deal struck that was related to a PX It would probably be next Tues-Fri that I would be travelling to do the deal. Any thoughts greatly appreciated

Just found you through the Shark Website have emailed you about possibly getting my VRS done

I snow foam the car leave for 15 mins then rinse. Then I use a carnubawax shampoo I bought from Aldi & a microfibre mit to wash it only takes about 5 mins for this. I then apply a wax spray & rinse this off then hand dry. Comes up really well everytime

Got some warranty work completed today. I emailed them about the issue through their website service contact form & they got back to me pretty quick. I was in on Friday to allow them to diagnose the problem & in today to have the motor replaced for my rear windscreen wiper. They were really helpful, friendly & courteous. I inquired about getting the first service done & was quoted in the region of £120-£130 which I found reasonable. Will be going back to see them when I'm looking to change the car too
