Title: Been offered 13.5k for my car by a dealer in Ipswich, should I take it!!
Post by: cossy on May 07, 2010, 06:15:50 pm
Do I look like I came up the river on the last banana boat!

Against a new car as well!

Stealers want it both ways and more, rather burn it than give it away. :P

Totally get your anger mate, but to give us who don't know your ride a clue as to how much of a slap this is can you give us a clue what model, year mileage you have? Also what price are webuyanycar offering?

I hate these weasels, I won't even go to them for a service now.

Cars not even run yet :grin: There's a lot of people wanting to sell there ed30's on here at the moment.
I always try to sell my car privately as Trade in has never been worth it and for those that always get top dollar Iam very sceptical as I have yet to meet a skint dealer. Good luck though :happy2: nice alloys

Mr Cossy ,

What is the spec because i was looking to buy a Met Grey 3 dr ed30 ,I am paying cash to a dealer for a Red one with everything except a sunroof @ £18k  .

The car is being preped this week and on the understanding it has to be right or i walk away,

I have paid a k deposit by mastercard ,when I arrived to view it the dent in the quarter panel was worse than described and they forgot to mention by phone the kerbed wheels .

To there credit all areas are being sorted and the car is otherwise Mint ,the dent is being pushed out and then touched in and Polished to make it as good as possible ,I said invisible and they said as best as possible .The wheels 2 off full refurb and two have little marks thy will touch in

They sell new Jags and Volvos and asure me there guys are Good


Now if it isnt as i want it i would walk away or insist that money comes off and will sort it myself ,

PLEASE SEND ME YOUR DETAILS and a price as i would come and buy from you if this RED 3dr with nav xenons ,dsg and 9k one owner isnt 100% to my satisfaction regards scooba

The stealers would take it from you at £13.5k, and in my experience, they add around £3-4k on top when they put it out on sale.
They offerred me £16k when I was selling mine last year, and told me they would put it out for around £18k.
Bear in mind when people buy from stealers they pay the premium, but also get a year warranty etc as well, which some people like to go for, for piece of mind if anything else.

£13.5k is a rip off price for your car though - but then again what more did you expect from the stealers!

Not going to blow my own trumpet but be very careful if they are spraying a red car, red is very difficult to match & you cant match the wheel colour as everyone on here will confirm.
