Just looked at said website as thinking of selling up in a few months. They offered £3335 for an 05 fabia vrs with 67k. I reckon this is about £5-700 off market value. Autotrader has about 10 cars with my mileage and they are mostly £4500. Somewhere in between must be about right then.

What do you expect?

Are you thinking of selling to we buy any car or are you using it as a benchmark price?

From what I've heard, they give you a good offer on the site, then when they come out to see the car they find excuses to knock it down loads

They offered me a grand for my old 54 plate with 230k on clock. Helped get better trade in at dealers, lol

Watchdog was all over that years ago, but after smashing them they reported back that it's much better now. I sold my 11 plate vRS to a similar rival service which offered £1500 more than WeBuyAnyCar and gave what they said. They in turn advertised it for £1.2K more and it was for a time the cheapest and lowest mileage 11 plate vRS for sale in the UK. They just turn cars around for a set profit asap. I could have sold it privately and asked for a lot more as per what a lot of dreamers were asking, but I couldn't be assed with dealing with wasters.

 

Same place before that I dumped my 2012 Z1000SX again at a higher price (£800) and again they sold it on for this time £1k profit. So handy to use such services, even got free coffee and a life to the bus depot after. 

Need to upgrade to a slightly bigger car. Going to join freedom before I list it

if you describe your car honestly - noting any scrapes, damaged alloys ect. you will get what you are offered.

 

Price all depends on the demand for that particular model at that particular time.  SWIMBO sold a car with them a couple of years ago and we got more that anyone else offered as a trade in or private.  Recently got a price of a Vitara I was selling and I got almost double in a private sale! (£1875 - £3300)

Sometimes they appear to payout/offer more than trade in - even with knock downs for damage.

As they sell at auction, it's all about how in demand your vehicle is if you want near to or over trade in.

Just did a check with them. They offered me £754 for my 2004 Octy pre F/L Elegance? I've got more money than that just in tyres lol.

They can be jokers but I will have to see how it goes.

I checked my bmw

They will offer 4k

Private i could sell for 4.5-5k. So its not a bad deal they offer if your after a fast sell or cant be bothered with advertising

Which 'similar rival service' did you use if you don't mind me asking

As I said a local one, so not of any use to 99% of you guys unfortunately. http://www.charleshurstgroup.co.uk/offers/hurst-car-buyer

Trustedcarbuyers.com offered me significantly more than webuyanycar.com recently for the Octavia I was selling, and they followed up by asking me how much more I wanted for the car when I failed to respond to their offer. They buy to sell on their own forecourts while webuyanycars.com send cars to auction.

Just done the trusted car buyers and got 3081 as a price. Think private will be the way to go.
