Some of them are very good, wewillbuyyourcar.com gave me a mental price on my Scooby before I got rid. And even got rid of the "import" myth lol

Blimey.
I meant the other end of the scale.
Their price for an 07 WRX was about £12,500 when I sold.... after a quick email and realising mine was a Cyprus import, they said they could only offer me £12,400........ 4 or 5k cheaper to buy, would have lost £100 over a UK spec one on selling it.

Tony not too shabby then mate.
Depending of course on T&C's

little bit of inside knowledge guys, i have it from good authority that the book is going to increase by 1% across most of the board due to demand for used cars.

Not good news if you work in a dealer though, if the prices do go up on used cars, this will be a nightmare for the car manufacturers.

Please explain? My view is that the gap between a 1year old car and a new one with discount will be smaller making the new one a more interesting propostition, secondly with values going up, part ex values will be higher, again allowing scope for new car sales, this could only be good for news for manufacturers not the nightmare your suggesting?

I went to BCA Bedford a few times at the start of the month and the prices seemed ridiculously high on used cars, even a RR sport made good money. The only cheap vehicles were commercials.
