just getting valuations to calculate the running costs of my car since i have had her for 1 year now, and checked a few including webuy... valuations from web and a couple of local dealers, they were low, but not the lowest, (offered between £4000 and £5900 but seeing the retail prices of cars, some of the dealers must be hoping to make 100% profit.

Quite frankly, it is surely incredible that these web-based outfits manage to be in business at all, I can't think of a more obviously dubious way of selling a car. How does anybody fail to see what a rip-off it is?!

Bought the car last night, the key was in the ignition, took it for a spin and everything seemed fine. Went to lock it and couldn't, locked all the doors except the back door, climbed out and all was locked. However the key the guy gave me when I bought the car would not unlock it and the button bit you press is missing, you can see the circuit board etc. Long story short, he met me and unlocked the car with a coat hanger, he said he doesn't lock the car and the batteries have run out.

Been having a think today and I know nothing about cars, and have never had a car with central locking or immobliser, but the key works to start the car, but wont lock or unlock the doors, even putting the key in the door wont lock it. I'm getting some batteries later but I don't think their going to work, I'm not sure if the key I have is actually the key for the car! I don't know if the car has an immobliser or not, but having read up I think it does. Just find it strange that the key works in the ignition but not for the doors?... Read more
