Because now lazy Dealers / Traders know they can get shot of the car to WBAC easily if they can not sell at profits.

(no extra keeper because the car is 'in trade'.)

 

You do at least know your car is worth more than £1,000 over WBAC's offer, or they would not be offering you the money,

after all they are going to sell it at Auction or as a used car.

 

You just need to find a buyer yourself really.

If not, then all you have is a car, or the cash money from WBAC's offer.

Just WBAC'd ours, Jan 14 car 16k miles. Came out at £8000.

Trusted *cough* Car Buyers and We Want Any Car usually 'offer' more than WBAC, but then they probably work even harder than WBAC to knock you down once you cross their threshold.

WBAC Dec 2013 car with 22k £7000. I got £7500 in November against a new Octavia which they will honor when I pick it up in March.

No idea, but in Dundee, a CTHE in the fastest colour, washed,

how much are you thinking you will get.

Hoping I can squeeze 9k out of someone cost me 12.5k 15months ago :/

You should easily get £9k, anything below and someone's trying to get a bargain from it.

 

EDIT: Actually saying that I forgot to read the "30k" miles, you should still be able to push for £9k though polish up all the inside so it's spanking :sun:

The thing with £9,000 is that you can get them from a dealer for under £9,000 with a Warranty, less miles and newer, 

and Dealer Facilities like Finance. (Cost obviously.)

So you need to advertise and find the one buyer you need.

Have you guys heard of any succes selling on here tempted by the 30 day classifieds think it's worth a punt??

Members cars sell from adverts in the For Sales on here.

 

Have you asked down at Myrekirk Road (Skoda Specialist Cars) what they might give you for your car now?

& what is WBAC showing that they would give for it.

Just got an email from WBAC: http://puu.sh/mPewq/c82b29ed31.png

 

Increased to £6500, still a snowballs chance in hell I'd let them have it for that though lol just found it interesting that the value would go up.

I had a quote on my 2012 12 Monte tdi done 47900 miles loads of history's they offered me £5600 ! Jokers I need to swap it for a vrs as I don't do the miles I it I've done 700 mikes in it since August last year. And it doesn't like it anyone fancy a deal on a vrs ? Lol

Just to say that I bought our vrs estate from the classifieds here and sold our impreza to wbac as they offered a good bit more than any px I had been offered against a variety of cars. I might have got 500-750 more by selling the Impreza privately (or I might not).

I reckon they needed to spend a grand on tidying the Impreza but it was a 2 owner 66k car. I then saw it up at 6500 with a warranty from a dealer. So all in all about right I think.

Regarding wbac and wwac I think their only as good as whoever the local dealer is

A guy near us works for both franchises and I really wouldn't sell to him

The price they give you by email has absolutely no bearing on the price you will receive when you get there!

The ones for sale in Scotchland that I was looking at the other week seem to have found buyers - either that or punted off to auction ...

There's a 2013 vRS for sale at a Suzuki dealer in Stirling - despite having done only 3,100 miles (!) it has managed to acquire after-market alloys and has a huge Skoda emblem on the bonnet - a snip at £10,500...

That is hideous lol! It's also looking like in desperate need of some lowering springs in those pics.

3k miles since 2013?!

 

Not overly keen on the big black Skoda emblem on the bonnet, and as Furby said it desperately needs lowering with that colour, wheels look ok not my taste though

Here's a far more tasteful very low mileage example -
