You not seen the latest one that's something like "We Take Any Car", where the advert shows people scrapping their mint-condition looking cars that are only around ten years old?

The wad of cash they have in their hands would only come from scrapping a mint-condition car, anything else would be a few quid whilst the loader rubs his hands in glee for the scrap weight he'll get for it.

I've not noticed their advert of late either. I have to say I have a good experience of them too - sure, they tempted me in with a good quote then knocked a wedge off when inspected, but I got shot of a car I didn't want and would have difficulty selling privately for a decent cash sum. No complaints.

That's a fortune. Must have done wonders to drum up more business though.

I owned a domain which was quite similar to theirs, however I had owned mine before they started trading.

Got a letter from their lawyers threatening me, ordering me to take my signage down etc....they had even been and photographed my signs!

Told them to FO, they bought the domain off me in the end for a large sum.
