We Buy Any Car Adverts ?
Discussion
Are they that irritating so it sticks in your head and is easy to remember, I heard it on the radio this morning and its going round in my head all bloody morning, its like the mental equivalent of the repeats Smoky Bacon crisps or Hot Dog Sausages do you your stomach ?
To be honest based on this I would rather set fire to my car than sell it to them, I mean that music sounds like its coming from a Bazzed out Saxo in some gruesome town centre, "We just sold our car Quick Quick", I suspect they used that line as it scans better than "We are really gullible and or desperate and just practically gave our car away", then they tell you how its "Clever" or "Savvy", I suspect for someone getting rid of something with some hidden issues (Im thinking poorly RX8's) its quite savvy but not for anyone else.
Now I am nothing special but are they aiming at a real lowest common denominator demographic ? those that overstretched their line of credit to buy a car they cant afford that they now need to offload quickly or is it a genuinely good service saddled with a memorable but really iffy theme tune ?

Avoid like an STI (& I dont mean an Impreza). Got a quote for an Alfa 156 I used to own for £950 (not including the deduction which would be made for there "Admin Fee") & sold it to a private punter 2 days later for £400 more.
Also heard that they had been investigated by the FSA (or similar) since 94% of the quotes which they gave out via there website were downgraded when you actually took the car in to them.

I put my Ibiza into their system just out of curiosity and it was £1000 or thereabouts less than private sales. Ok, it's probably closer the trade in value with a dealer but I still wouldn't part with it for so little.
I've also got pestered with "reminder" emails every couple of weeks since.
And yes, the ads are annoying.
