hillsgal   10 #1 Posted July 20, 2017 I've done a search, but I couldn't find any recent threads on this. I want to sell my car (3.5 year old Nissan) and won't be buying a new one so can't do a part exchange. I don't want the risks involved in selling it privately to an individual, as I've known a few friends who've had issues when doing this, so are there any car dealerships that people would recommend? There's obviously webuyanycar, but I'm guessing that they tend to offer the lowest prices. Can anyone suggest anywhere in Sheffield that's likely to give me a better price than them?

hillsgal   10 #3 Posted July 20, 2017 I'm obviously not expecting a dealer to give me the same price someone would buy it from them for, but it was my understanding that the amount can vary from one dealer to another, and that webuyanycar tend to be the lowest as you're getting a lower price in return for a quick and convenient sale.

willman   10 #4 Posted July 20, 2017 Pop on Autotrader and look at other cars ,you can then opt to trade in you car( i know you aren't) but it will give a trade in figure for your car. This is roughly all a dealer will give you,and usually they're all within £100 or so of each other. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jon&emma   13 #5 Posted July 20, 2017 The car lot near the city road cemetery gives a good price for cars. I sold mine to them and they gave me £200 less than it was worth. When I look at the price they had it up for sale it was for £200 more than they gave me. So they only made a £200 profit. Not bad really.

geared   303 #8 Posted July 21, 2017 webuyanycar don't always pay the lowest price it does vary a fair bit.  They gave my mate double what his car was actually worth and treble what he was expecting from them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
