Yep ...

A classified on Ebay is only £12.99. Stick a best offer on it and it lasts for a month.

How much do webuyanycar.com offer ?

Oh god dont go with them!! they offer you a attractive price on the website, but as soon as you go the inspection, they always find "something " wrong with your car and offer you substantially less :spidey:

And TBF i would go with Piston heads as its free mainly and you always get people looking on thier!!

Well ... I have sold a car to them. I had an Audi A2 up privately for £8K. They offered £7,800 on line . I took the car there and left 10 mins later with the money in the bank.

Just an idea for the guy who seems very keen to get into a ZS that's all.

Just a bit too much out of my price range mate, or I may well have suggested we do a deal.

No worries pal ... two views gives balance to the issue. His choice to have a look and see what they say. With it being a diesel with decent mileage and FSH, they may give a good offer. Who knows ? :thumbsup:

I have played with cars in webuyanycar.com just to see what they offer and tbh I think they take the ****! You can get better prices elsewhere.
While I love my MG why would you go from an £8k car to a £4k car, you could get a newer car with similar performance surely if you aren't doing this to get some money back...

£1055 for my 03 180 and £4695 (£7800 private) for an 06 Saab 93 Vector Sport 150 tdi - absolute insults!

£12.99 from Ebay for a classified is exactly that ... no bidding ... and no final sale fee.
