My old Megane Sport is going up and down on WBAC but the overall direction is down. Cazoo now down too whereas the two have been out of sync before now.

I don't know the exact model but I'm pretty sure the valuations will reflect supply. If they have an oversupply of a certain car, the value will drop.

My car has been steadily rising for the past few weeks after a pretty big drop in February, and is now roughly where it was before again.

Attempting to sell a 530i f10 via motorway at the moment and was offered 9.4k initially and after photos of the service history they are knocking 1.2k off the price because its not been serviced every 10k, even though BMW state 25k /2yrs. lol.
Had similar when selling my A4 years ago to WBAC. Because there were no dates in the service book only mileages, there was 'no proof' it had been serviced every two years as per the requirements. local bloke wanted to knock over £1000 off as not FSH. I was ready to leave when he called his manager who told him it was ok. The fact it was a four and half year old car on nearly 100k with five service stamps meant nothing apparently laugh
WBAC paid me more as they had servicing as 10,000miles and Abarth say 9,000 so I felt it was due a service and they didn’t.

On my Yaris with 12,000 miles it was £30k in March then £28k this week with 13,500 miles it’s now £30.5k.

Are prices starting to go back up?

Just checked on mine today, last checked two weeks ago.
It's gone from £36k to £39k.

Mines up on last month too.

8700 in Jan.

Took a big fall to 6800 in April

7700 the other day.

I've no intention of selling but they make it so easy for you to revalue by text so why not just keep track of it!

Up a little, valuation now guaranteed for 4 days, not 7 anymore. Cazoo also dropped guarantee period from 10 days to 7.

My Range Rover Sport was £29k in January with WBAC. Last week £19k. I think they’ve got too many. Need rid in next 6 weeks though as new car is on its was mid June.

My local We Buy Any Car in the nearby B&Q car park have got this waiting for the transportation. It’s a lovely looking thing but surely a franchise would give more? Or is it too old for them?

Probably riddled with issues, they only check dashboard lights and a cursory look at service history.

Don't think there's much money in those 300Cs.
