The valuation on webuyanycar is £18000. Surely the better thing for the owner to do as it looks in reasonable condition? very few auctions get the top valuation these days. I think the auction valuation is too low at £13,000

Would be interesting to see where the hammer falls on these Vees.

Do WBAC actually pay the prices they estimate, or is it simply to draw you in?

 

[Chopper]

WBAC will pay pretty close as long as no signs of accident damage, stone chips, scuffed alloys, full service history and 2 keys etc.

I'm at the auction. This just sold for 15k plus fees.

Very interesting - was it a trader who picked it up?

 

[GPH]

So selling at £16,500 I hope they tried WBAC first! The other similar V6 R5 CVG with 68k miles sold for £18,700.

£16,800 as you have to add vat to the 10% fees.

Likely a trader as now up for resale already at £22,000

 

[paulg390]

Now at £19,500 on PH as Private sale...

Back at Historics Auction on Saturday. Guide price 13k - 18k again.

Oh dear. so they thought they'd make a quick couple of grand profit but bought it at the worst time possible just before Christmas and couldn't hang on until Spring........not trader of the year material
