LOL.
Well it was worth asking about, so I did. Called up the guy and asked about trading mine in. He came back to me very quickly and was very helpful, but talk about an insult to my intelligence.
He offered me 5k for mine. So in three months, 2,700 loss. I asked him if he would put the car on the forecourt at 5k and he said "no probably £7,500". Basically told him I was ending the convo there and did so (politely).
To give him his due, very quickly came back to me with all the info, but talk about a **** take!
its a trade in price, do you really expect to get what you paid for it or what you'd sell it for?
I dont see a problem with the trade in price, 5k seems pretty fair to be honest, its a trade in price, do you really expect to get what you paid for it or what you'd sell it for?
I can't understand how a wash, typing up an advert, taking some photos and sticking it on a website etc is 2.5ks worth of bother (not directed at you, Sportstractor, just at that point).
When dealers start banging on about "we'll give you this much for your car" and "we'll sell this car to you for this much" I go deaf.
....and then I say "i've got my car plus this amount of money to spend.... deal or no deal???"
