Never had any dealings with them, and never will, but I'm selling my current vehicle and decided to get a price. Even though I always sell on to someone in the trade.

They quoted me a price which, TBH, wasn't a million miles from what I was looking at, especially taking into account they wouldn't be getting the meter and CCTV which the new trade owner will.

But the point of this post is that since I enquired, they have upped the quote twice, about 20% in total. So if anyone does have dealings with them, please don't take their first or second offers.

the price they quote is usually 20 % more than the price they eventually give you. Their quoted price is what they think the car is worth in mint showroom condition .

They offered me another 5% today.

Don't have the heart to tell them that they could offer me double, and I wouldn't sell it to them. :D
