Recommended? Cant decide whether to trade our car in with the dealer or sell it to this company first and take cash instead. I hate having tyre kickers and the hassle of private ads and such like. Is webuyanycar.com a good quick way of selling? any better ways?

    Good if you want to sell it at any price. They'll offer you a flat fee on the website then offer you far less when they come to collect.
  • go on the website and if u fill in a few details it will tell u how much they will give u for your car :)

    Various experiences and opinions here. Worked for me - only knocked £100 off the web offer price IIRC and still ended up with £500 more than my best part-ex offer.

    You'll get a decent price if it's a model that Carcraft can shift quickly for a good profit. Anything else they won't be bothered and will offer you lower prices.

    But they do have a catchy tune.
    Four guns yet only one trigger prepare for a volley.

    Is the truth.:cool:
  • I have a Rav4 but they have offered nearly 600 less than I expected, and if you say that they will probably offer even less than that, I guess I have to do the old fashioned newspaper ad way. thanks people.

    What year, spec, mileage etc.?

    -£600 might be a lot if you were expecting £1,200 but not if you were expecting £12,000.
  • They're not a charity, so will offer lower prices. If the price suits then go for it...
