    We buy any car!

    Just for a giggle I entered the details of my S2 into their website....

    I must stress my car is not actually for sale I was just curious how they value it.

    And the figure was £50 - £24.75 admin charge giving me a grand total of.......

    £25.25!!!

    What a bunch if scamming barstools!!!

    What!? Thats nuts, they offered me £50 for a fwd 88 90 10v, thought they would have given you at least £100 for the S2 :mischeif:

    Crazy that they offer lower than scrap value.

    Tell you what though, I will take it off yours hands for ten times what they will and not even charge you an admin fee

      But of course, who would want an old Audi coupe thing?

      On the flip side, they offered £15k for our A6 - less than what I'd hope to get elsewhere, but at least not taking the p*ss completely.

      Got me curious - wonder what a main dealer would give for the S2 as a trade in? Anyone done it?

        WBAC.com give bottom trade book less what the local dude can manage to scam off that figure when you actually take it along, eg: a fine scratch on thr bumper would take £100 off the offer etc etc..

        I know the OP only did this for a jolly jape, but surely anyone would have to be absolutely desperate to sell to these thieving gits?

            Not sure I understand that - they're just making you an offer for the car, you don't have to take it!

              they seem to be growing as a company, so I guess there are people selling their cars for these low prices!

                But they have to be reputable if they advertise on tv - my dad says so. Oddly enough he also believed the government and BBC news when they were telling us how Saddam had WMD's...

                              So the advert they do which says "from fifty quid to a hundred grand" suggests they are offering you the very lowest price they will offer?!! Presumably that means they consider an S2 to be in the same league as an old Nova then?

                              It's not better than sex, but it runs it a close second.
