The guy at the garage where my Fiesta is located just now has informed my old boy that he doesnt think its worth fixing my car because "Even with a full years MOT its only worth £400" now my old boy thinks im a daft prick for paying £1300 for it and says he doesnt think hes going to lend me the money needed to fix it as its not worth it and also that my mate who sold me it isnt really a mate

Fair to say im raging and ive told my dad to tell the guy that I will be coming to get it taken away tonite or tomorrow as the guy obviously doesnt have a clue so I dont want him doing the work on it.

What a twat this guy is, Ive got a quote form webuyanycar saying that they would pay £1550 for it so this idiots theory is out the window. I was overjoyed with the deal I got on the fiesta, £1300 and it came with the standard wheels and tons of spare parts, and now this guy has just pissed me off because my old boy is going to listen to him instead of me and he thinks im a fucking twat

 

 

pmsl @ daves photo

too be fair what year is the fiesta? as trade wise it does look to be worth 400 quid!

steve

 

are there many for sale on autotrader, ebay, piston heads?

if there are, print off a few adds and show your old boy them as proof of value.

then when you go round to the garage to take it away show them, tell them they clearly are retarded and therefore are not geting the work. some people are just stupid. they clearly only see it as an old fiesta.

 

Sell it to WeBuyAnyCar, keep the spares and the quick £250 profit and buy another one for £400!

 

LMFAO! Is that Dojj's old man?

 

Its has no badges on it so im assuming he just thinks its a just a mk3, he even asked if it was a 1.6 or a 1.8 while we were standing with the bonnet open looking at the engine with the 1.8 injection sticker on it.

 

cry that photo sums up exactly what i was thinking when reading the post!


????

tho i was thinking along the lines of,

 

people my age think that about my mk1 fiesta aswell. pisses me off aswell tbh

 

i would like to see the quote from webuyanycar for that price........

 

If that quote from WBAC is legit, then I'm away to buy as many MK3s as I can.. cause even if they are theiving cunts and knock 30-40% off the quoted price when you turn up then you're still onto a winner?!

Nonsense.

 

What do people think an RS1800 is worth? I wouldn't say £1300 is over the top tbh

It's like saying a Saph coss is worth £300 because that's all a normal one is worth

 

To an enthusiast then yes it is worth whatever someone is prepared to pay. To a trader/webuyanycar etc, it's just a 15 year old fiesta.

 

Do you really think that WBAC are going to see a MK3 Fiesta at the same level (or higher..) as an enthusiast would though mate?!


Cheers,

Whos your old boy ? is that chav lingo for your dad ? im confused.

Are you fixing it to sell it ? if not then what dose it matter what its worth .... if you really like the car and are willing to spend money on it why not.

 

The pic had me pissing myself, but thats just put me over the edge !!!
Really LMFAO !!!!!!!!!!!

 

whats the stained shirt all about .
looks like a white mr t

 

To be honest, a ropey RS1800's value is probably closer to the £400 he said than the £1300 you paid for it. I do think you've had your pants pulled down, £1300 for one with no MOT. Fair enough if it was in good nick but I assume it's not if it needs lots of MOT work.

 

 

cant say fairer than that!

A tidy RS1800 will still do good money i'd have thought? Good fun wee cars - sounds like this is the ideal excuse to 2.0 it mate

 

im off to buy as many rs1880 fiestas as i can.....

i couldnt sell them for 1500 quid 5 years ago when i was dealing in rs cars!!!

i would sill like to see the agent at the wbac office give a cheque out for that much.ive just valued a 51 plate passat turbo on there......855.00!

 

To be honest, I'd love you to go down and see what you'd actually get... cause they're known to knock value down on anything they can, but jesus christ thats a far stronger initial offer than I thought you'd get for an RS1800.


Cheers,

I dont realistically think id get that from them, maybe from a private sale, but its just the fact he says its only worth 400 when I clearly know its more than that.

 

Not a chance buddy! I would guess WBAC would value it the same as any other mk3 Fiesta. the OP must be wrong somewhere. It was just the people who were saying it's only worth £400 I was refering to

 

I agree!

 

I'll get me coat.........

 

A boy at my work had a w plate corsa cant mind the exact details he thought he was getting £550 but after admin fee's & the guy cut him down he was only getting £120 they give you that figure to get you in the door then when it comes time to do an appraisal on the car they rip it to bits

 

Just typed in Mad Rods reg plate... £955

 

my mate sold his mk1 corsa to them for 500 quid, and it was a banger, faded red paint looked pink

 

 

they offered me £50 for a 98 mondeo si, so after there admin charge i'd walk out with 1p lol
sold it for £460 on the bay.

 

lol, surprised me too on that price.

 

£1505 for a 52reg st170 78,000 mint condition 2 owners full mot ha ha ha fucking goons

 

er....not to burst any bubbles but i just entered your EXACT car into webuyanycar.com,same plate etc

£720!!!!!!!!!

 

They offered me £3800 for my escort cossie, goons.

 

the guy in the garage wants u motor

 

maybe they've spotted this thread

 

I know! Who in there right mind would pay 1505 for an st170, goon's

 

How could you have put it in if you dont know the mileage and condition etc?
