So WBAC “screw you over”, then you go on to give an example of motorway screwing you over…

FWIW I think people allow WBAC to screw then over by being dishonest about the condition or just too plain stupid to fix minor blemishes themselves.
They can’t make problems up, so don’t give them an excuse.
Erm no…..
On the day the owner of the garage that bought the car pointed out one or two issues i hadnt noticed. So i OFFERED to take 300 off. I wanted the car gone. There was a paint mismatch not noticed so i was happy to get the 1500 extra rather than the original 1800.
Both of which were massively more than WBAC.
I could have just said nah the price is the price and started all over.
WBAC will take £99 off you for a processing fee and £50 if you want to be paid in less than 4 days.
WBAC offered 1800 less BEING TOLD THE CAR WAS TOTALLY UNBLEMISHED CONDITION.
I got 1500 more WITH dealer defects being pointed out. And they were things a buyer wouldnt even notice.
WBAC would have knocked it down further so your argument doesnt hold.
They can’t make problems up, so don’t give them an
Slight improvement with WBAC
Still very poor though.
I got over £22k for a year old leaf Acenta (the base model)

Ok so i did a Motorway vs WBAC comparison on one of the demo cars pictured on the net.
An orange trophy LA22WNR
I put it as 4,000 miles.
So Motorway predicted £24.450
WBAC offered £19500.
Yeah. Run the numbers yourself, takes 30 seconds apparently
So for the “OMG look at the depreciation”. Thats normal. (For the motorway figure!)
I bought a Renault once that was 18000 new as a 6 month old demonstrator for 12000.
And my last car, a Toyota GT86 was 26500 new and 18500 when i bought it at 6 months old. (And sold it 8 years later for 10500 in my example given earlier).
