Hello Adrian,
Let’s try to tread some realistic ground through this.
WBAC is part of British Car Auctions, and this is where your car will end up if you sell it to them.
They are trade buyers, so once they have offered an acceptable price to you and them, then there isn’t any come back.
The £3,600 price quoted is a price to entice you to progress this to an inspection and valuation stage, at which point they will offer you a lower price depending on its overall appearance, mileage, their knowledge of the model, it’s demand, and above all the realistic price they expect it to make at auction - less of course the profit they wish to make from the deal.
It really is as simple as that. Beware how you answer questions, and simply state you wish to sell it, in the hope that you may get a better deal without part exchange.
‘Worth a few hundred pounds’ can be be taken as a figure some may suggest where the buyer is fully knowledgeable about the pitfalls of that particular model year, and those who are, probably wouldn’t but it at any price!
Presentation and first impression is king here, so invest in a good quality valet ( if you don’t do that yourself) before presenting it for valuation. Oh and make sure the oil is topped up!
Perhaps you could let us know how you get on Adrian.
Kind regards,
Gareth.
