    I used it and it was fine. The guy who bought it spotted some faults (that I sort of knew about) and knocked some money off. Note that they also check for any fault codes and may try and knock money off for these too. Overall I was happy. If you don't get the offer you want you can wait and try again later.

    We used it a couple of year ago to sell an older model Peugeot 5008. Had to upload about 40 pictures, and it didn't quite go for estimate but it was a fairly easy process after doing all the pictures. The buyer sent a driver by train, he took it for a quick test drive, and authorised the payment as agreed.

    I got bid for my car, but then buyer started asking about some warranty repairs and wanted to lower the price. I just wasted time. I sold the same car on CarWow without the problem.
