We want any car.com?

Hi, has any one used them to buy their car.My dealer has offered me a low part ex price so I have entered my cars details with them.I have told them of scuffed alloys etc and they have come back with a price of between £1200 to £1700 higher than the dealer price.Should I try them?

Used them once and would never use them again.

I know it all depends on what price you have to compare them to but they were recently investigated by trading standards as covered in What Car last month so dont be surprised if they offer well below what their website 'estimates'.

Current: Si4 - HSE Dynamic Lux - Corris Grey with Black Pano - Adaptive Dynamics - ATPC - Adaptive LED Headlights - Privacy Glass - Style 508's - Heated Steering Wheel - Spare Wheel - Ebony Headlining

From what i've heard, when they value your car, is that the agents get 30p commission for every pound saved from their online valuation..

But as cjfp mentioned on post 2, you are not committed to accept..

I think as long as you detail every scratch/dent etc no matter how small then you should be ok. Altho they took £200 off my father in laws price because his mileage was too low and their system couldn't price it right.

Apparently ex employees have went to the press and confirmed they were asked to reduce the quotes by 30%.

Weebuyanycar have offered me £900 more than my dealer, I contacted some Honda dealers and have had a better offer off them to buy my car. As luck would have it they own the dealership I'm buying my evoque from and they will handle it as a trade in.

If honda are part of the same dealer group your dealer should have already checked values from them!
