suprasurrey Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Iv`e just seen the `We buy any car` advert on the telly and thought I`d give it a go. I have a Jspec TT auto in white. It`s a 1994 model with 85,000 miles on it. So I put all of these details in and they came back with a valuation of £815:rlol: Try it for yourselves and post your valuations:d I`ll post some Haribo to the first member to top £1000;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveR Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 I tried this once just to see. I can't remember exactly what the valuation was, but I do remember they were prepared to offer more for the missus's 1.8l Mk1 Focus than my Supra!

Benjy Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 It's all based on what they'll be able to sell it at a trade auction for. CC Trading as they're known at the auctions only give decent money for cars that people looking to fill up their forecourts will pay decent money for. The people at these auctions don't generally like big engines or "specialist" cars. Buy as mentioned, they will buy literally anything. They just won't pay what it's worth to you.

SteveC Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Don't forget, once you take your car to one of their approved garages for a check over, more likely than not, the offer you received online will be reduced by a good percentage based on some lame excuse - stone chip, small dent etc. I read an article about them a while ago and it appears they are simply looking for people who are desperate for quick money.
