• Ref my V-Class Camper, the WBAC value will be for an as-stock V-Class MPV, which mine is not, it has two of the rear seats missing and a double bed, kitchen and large storage unit in the back where the third row of seats would normally be. It also has professionally fitted black out curtains and awning rails down either side, the right hand of which has an awning fitted.

    I'm wondering whether to pull all the camping gubbins out, or to leave it in - I doubt WBAC would give me any money for it, but it's very expensive to buy from Blok Pod, so likely some value in a separate sale there.

    Could I run the van round to WBAC for an in person appraisal, or is that not a thing?

  • I have found that WBAC lure you in with a price, then you take it to them, they point out everything that they either don't like or make it a hard sell before low-balling you.

    I sold the M3 on eBay for the grand total of £29, had a group of chaps turn up and try and outbid each other before the winner appeared three hours later with a flatbed and took her away.

    Yes it's a day of your life, but for the sake of £29 and two dozen cups of tea, I'd do it that way again...

  • The WBAC agents are very open to bribery, one of them was quite candid with my cousin about how pitiful their commission is. If they let 1 car slip through without knocking down all the things that they're supposed to, they'll only lose £20 commission, but to you, a £75 bribe buys you £500-£1000 back on the value of your car.
