    Hi i need some advice. Looking to trade in my 00 ford fiesta and get a bigger car. How does this work in a garage? Is it a waste of time,should i just sell it privately first?

    Thanks!

    They'll take it but you would be better off getting rid of it privately and then getting a good whack off the screen price of the car you are buying.

    Dont even mention a trade in to be honest. Even if you never sold the fiesta, Id say you will get the next car as cheap just by going in for a straight sale.

    I googled it and realised it was a known scam,knew it really why would you buy car you have never set eyes on?

    Replied by asking him for name address etc...and he responded with why? ha..the cheek...

    so i copy and pasted 'his' other version that was on line ,word for word what he had sent me except it was for his uncles birthday.

    Needless to say no reply...his ship has porbably sunk with weight of money from scamming!!
