    It's awful pittabre, stead clear. You are much better looking online at scrap car merchants as many will collect.

    wbac offered me £70 for my 11 year old 106, with a£50 admin fee. A scarp car place collected it for me and gave £102.

    We used a similar company called the Car buying service. I think they're mainly Yorkshire based.

    I was quite impressed. My 03 polo had the engine management light on and was out of MOT. They offered me £1100 online (which I knew I wouldn't get once they'd assessed the engine etc). They offered me £500 on the day because of the engine fault and we haggled them up to £800. I was considering scrapping the car so i was happy with that.

    A girl l know used them and reckoned she got a good price. Despite the car being in a bit of a state.

    I would avoid based on what people have said... For a bit of perspective in 2011 I scrapped my 1998 Daewoo Matiz and got £130 from the scrap people. I thought that was quite good for an MOT failure with severe corrosion!

    I know they don't have a sense of humor, this has been working its way around FB! :-)

    Have had similar experience as others - they offered me £60 for one car which I then sold privately for £500 and £35 for car I then scrapped, I think I got about £140 for scrapping it. They seem to give extremely low prices

    I've used them twice. Only because I wanted a quick sale and couldn't wait around for someone to pick my corsa/Peugeot 206 over the ten million others for sale!

    Both times I got less than the original quote, but I did notice that if I got a quote and didn't book an appt, the next time I got a quote it was higher. I did this for a week and it went up by over £100. The higher it starts the higher it will finish if that makes sense?

    They're awful. I've not heard any positives about them.

    my old S reg Saxo failed it's MOT and needed hefty work. They quoted me about £500, but when we took it to them we got £220! I would have got more scrapping it, but then couldn't transport it anywhere. I was fuming.

They provide an online valuation tool which gives you an estimated price for your vehicle based on its make, model, and condition.
