dont do it. Its frucking shoot.

 

Offered me £4925 for my 2002 Audi A4 Quattro Sport 3.0ltr immaculate car.

 

A trader who would sooner bend me over would offer me £6500 for it!

 

I purchased it for £9750 in Oct 2007 so not even a year on, this shoot website is offering me half of what I paid for it!

How do you think they can afford to buy 'any' car?

 

Buy from desperates who need the cash quick then sell on for a profit.

 

Job done.

offered me £3665 for my Seat Leon Cupra 20vT on an 02 plate. 54k miles dealer will offer me £5200

Not much point in me trying to sell my Leon Cupra R (03) then, given that it's done nearly 80k and it's yellow

£3345 for my mondeo which isn't as ludicrous as the prices on your cars tbh. I only paid £4400 for it in March so they're looking for the usual dealer margin there tbh. I know I got it for a good price anyway!

Are the dealer prices the cash prices ie not trade-in?

 

To be fair they are essentially the same thing. If your trading in a car, to buy a new one for £10k, your car may only be worth £4.5k but they will trade it in for £5k. You think you getting a good deal, however, if they only gave you £4k for it but knocked £0.5k off the asking price of the new car, you're getting the same deal but made up slightly different.

 

The price they gave me was a cash price, however if I were to find a new car from their forecourt, they would be less likely to reduce their price if I asked for the same amount as a trade in.

 

As an update, they have now told me £5750 would be the price I would get for my car. Apparently (and I still think this is car salesman talk) my car is depreciating by £350 per month! :shock:

£10k - £5k = £5k

 

£9.5k - £4k = £5.5k
