Yes, but that's how their business model works, buy cheap, sell high. Its for those who are desperate (or foolish) to sell quickly.

The same will apply to any webuyany.com company

Webuyanycar.com actually made me a very reasonable offer - unfortunately the same day, the car started making a nasty noise from the engine and I dared not drive it anywhere in that condition, and of course they don't take broken cars.

webuyanycar is for the lazy person who knows nothing about cars, these people would be part exchanging their cars anyway as selling a car privately would be too daunting/time consuming.

If you compare what they offer compared to main dealers trade in prices they are comparable.

They've been around for years so they must be a lot of people using them.

People like my Dad who sold his MX5 for £100! I shed a tear when he told me what he'd done, that would have made a lovely track toy.

People who can't be bothered to make a decision, even when that decision is the most important thing in someone's life.

Accidentally grabbing a handful of dried up stinging nettles when pulling out a dead lavender bush. 12 hours and several antihistamines later my whole hand is still throbbing and painful.

fukin car manufacturers. all of them seem to be using some sort of shizzzzz on the inside of windscreens on new cars. i cant get it off for the life of trying on my new and the other car. i have tried everything. because of this shizz you cant clean the windscreen properly ad all it does is just swirl and look like shizz. and before you say get a proper car widscrean cream/spray/polish they dont work either and it just makes it even worse.

aaaaarrrrrggggggggggg. i cant see shizzz out the bloody thing when it sunny, fuk em if i crash because of it i'll sue the currents.

Vinegar and newspaper. Although I've used up all the vinegar in my house on my nettle stings.
