I’ve ordered a new Karoq and have been given a price to trade in my Yeti. Phillip Schofield is offering me £175 more before they beat me up on price and fees. 

 

Has as anyone used Tootle or anything similar instead of trading in? The dealer I’m getting the Karoq from isn’t bothered either way. 

Exchanging with a dealer is easiest, especially if delivery date moves around

 

For £175 difference, (probably less if they knock bits off for this and that), might not be worth the hassle of trying to sell to someone else.

 

I lost a bit selling though one of these as one of the poorly worded questions was have you hired out the car ( I assumed they meant me as owner answering the questions), and they actually meant has it ever been a rental car in its life (didn't like Europcar being keeper before me) so at last minute knocked few hundred pounds off, or I lost my selling deposit as 3 guys waiting to collect ( 2 going on to another collection, one to drive their car back), we met in middle when a trader agreed on phone to take it.  But not going through that again.   The really frustrating thing is could have sold it for about £300 more couple of weeks earlier, but I didn't go ahead when my new car was delayed a bit arriving at dealers (longer than expected at Grimsby docks)

Simplest thing is try Tootle and see, what is the worst that can happen.

Many sell using them, hence they are making money.
