Once I started a search for online buyers, the cookie trail led to several pop ups. I got around 10 quotes...cheapest was £17.5k from Toot Toot ( collected), best was from Arnold Clark. I had to drive Henry an hour up the road for appraisal, having ascertained beforehand that on arrival they wouldn’t make me a stupid offer way below the online valuation.
Other quotes from Evans Halshaw, Ford of Winsford and the supplying dealer at Coalville.
True to their word AC paid me the full valuation...£19,590, which was £10 less than I’d paid for the car for in April 2021.
No responses whatsoever from my ad on AT...it runs a few more days but too late now.
I didn’t even give Henry a backward glance as I left the premises to walk to Kendal bus station.
Poor Henry. Hope he finds a far more appreciative home.
