I’m at home it’s half 9 at night and I’ve just had a really weird idea is it possible in the current car market to buy a car from Facebook Marketplace and make money but I’m not just talking about making money anywhere I want to
Beat the system and sell it to we bu any car yeah that’s right I want to take it straight to we bu an car and make profit so my search starts within 10 km of Warrington looking at cars for £500 or less and straight away this is looking
Easy a 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer for £400 yes please let’s have a look at that right seized engine not today next one a 2005 Mini for 350 quid H noot brilliant this is looking harder than I thought but then I found this this 2006 Manan looks all right low mileage 88,000 miot
Till January yeah all right it’s had a ding but it looks like it just needs a good wash and a Hoover now this one looks good to me but let’s see what we bu any car has to say I’m sure we’ve all done this a million times Regin mileage
In fake details in obviously 740 quid and for those of you who don’t know web a car is a platform that literally buys any car right okay let’s make this a bit more accurate no service history one key theot ran out in January I need to do a
Car vertical to see if it’s been written off so I don’t know that yet now obviously the passenger rear quarter is quite badly damaged so let’s add that as well now I don’t quite feel like that’s enough so I’m going to add a bit more damage to that quarter I saw that the
Sunroof switches look broke as well so I’m going to add that 655 that’s what she’s asking for on Facebook Marketplace I’m going to offer a 500 quid and see how we get on after a bit of back and forth she’s accepted 500 quid I’m going to go down and have a
Look at it tomorrow this all seems way too easy I think I should do a car vertical check now getting a car vertical report is dead easy you just need a reg pop it in wait for the report to generate this checks thousands of different databases all across the world
And here’s your report now great news for us this is looking clean it’s not been stolen there’s no mileage discrepancies there’s no finance and it’s never been damaged this could work out brilliant for my little idea this has had quite a few failed mots though
And that last one that is some list more to the point it looks like the mots due in November not in January could be much worse though I could be looking at this Manan everything looks all right until you see the damage check these pictures out bit an near side damage headlight
Wing bumper and it doesn’t look like much has happened to it since then it looks like in 2020 somebody gave up trying to repair it then try to sell it it doesn’t matter if you’re trying to buy a car sell a car or get the history
Of a car you already own make sure you check out the link in the description box below and use code evil GT for your money off now last night I had a bit of a random idea and was can I buy a car or Facebook Marketplace and make money at
We buy any car so you join me in ashy Z 4M with him driving repping the evil GT merch evil gt.com go and get yours we’re on our way to go and have a look at a car that I found on Facebook Marketplace and there it is being cleaned out by the
Owner now unfortunately in that instance I’ve walked away because well even for £500 there’s no way that there’s any potential profit in that it needed two front tires one one of them was down to the cords the other one was very very worn on the inner Edge but I have got a
Plan B and that plan B is a completely different car but since driving from that mean back to the unit the girl’s been in touch and I said listen I’m not massively keen on trying to negotiating haggle with people face to face I know I used to be a car salesman but people
Were coming to me rather than me going to them so I didn’t really want to do it but in actual fact if you do still want to sell your car I’ll give you 400 quid for it no pressure If you don’t get any offers anywhere else it’s there and well
That might give you you an idea as to what she said so I am now the proud owner of an absolutely knackered 2006 88,000 M Rena mean now at 400 quid that gives me a bit more wiggle room with we buying a car because in order to even
Make that car legal to drive to We Buy Any a car it needs a couple of quid spending on it now the damage to the Bodywork I’m not worried about because I’ve already put that into the we bu any car website before we take it I do think
That this interior could do with a bit of a clean and the same for the back so if I’m going to get anywhere close to the price that we buy any car have said on their website I need a Hoover and a bucket and sponge and I’m going to see
About getting two cheap part Wars for the front of it too first things first this definitely needs new [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] tires I’m on to hunt for two cheap part Wars and two cheap indicators And just in case you didn’t know our absolutely Mega COA K1 is up for raffle LevelUp giveaways. co.uk competition ends on the 24th of October at 1: p.m. tickets are only 99p so if you can afford it get yourself a few good luck both Wheels loaded up let’s see what we can Find I think it was with me Dad about 20 5 years ago last time I went to a scrapyard you forget you need to take your own tools with you winner winner a 10 a later we’ve got some indicators off to see the lads at roundabout tires [Applause] Next part one sorted back to the unit to get these bits fitted it’s currently quarter 4 web any car closes at 7 I’ve got to wash the car Hoover the car new wheels and the replacement indicators I think it’ll do me a favor it being dark
By the time I get there to be Honest wheels and tires are on to have a stab at me electrical Certificate now they’re done outside for a good scrub a quick shout out for a good mate of mine Liam at lit electrical he supplied the LED lights in the unit it looks miles better in here much brighter so thanks mate I’ll put the link in the description it does public
Hand trade so there’s a shout out for Liam get it outside for a quick evil GT hand wash I definitely wasn’t using the 16 bucket method on this car on to the interior next and this was Grim there was dog airs everywhere everything was sticky had fingerprints
On it there was smudges all up the windows not the nicest it’s dark out but the Renault the Manan the baguette is looking a million times better than it was before there we go with the help of waxing away products and a bit of hard work sweat grit and
Determination she’s looking a million times better the interior is looking a million times better it definitely doesn’t smell any better though the dog smell in there is awful but anyway I love dogs I just don’t have one because of that exact reason I couldn’t handle everything smelling the dogs all the
Time anyway I digress massively I’m going to be late for we by any car they close at 7:00 it’s currently half 6 I don’t know if you can see that on my watch so I think I’m going to have to go in the morning they said don’t bother
Making an appointment just turn up so the morning it is it’s the following day and I’m on my way in the Manan to we buy any car and it’s the first time I’ve actually driven this car properly I’ve got to say this absolutely stinks of dog so bad but that
Is the least of its worries because I’ve got an engine management light and a spanner on now this car owes me 490 quid that’s £80 for the two part Wars and a 10 for them indicators so let’s see how much of that we can hold on to we have
Arrived wish me luck to David’s going to have a quick look around the Manan he’s going to grade the damage and grade the condition of it he’s just double checking the mileage now didn’t do a very good job of cleaning them wheels so I do know that the service is due and I
Do know that there’s an engine management light so that was a little bit tricky whilst I was over there with the car in seats just over there David was explaining to me that cu the engine management lights on it has kicked the value massively which I was kind of
Expecting let’s be honest it’s come down from about 550 quid for a grade five with some service history and one key this is from 740 by the way it’s come down to 230 quid but if I can get that engine management light on it will add about £
280 back so I’ll be making over 500 quid which means A50 profit but it’s better than a 230 or quid loss right this is evil GT it was never going to be straightforward was it I am hoping this goes well probably the simplest OBD reader ever ever used in me life my
Little tool has got the engine management light off the spanner still on cuz it needs a service but the engine management is off let’s go and have a chat after turning the engine on and off a few times and giving it a bit of a REV David was satisfied the engine light
Wasn’t coming back on and started a new report so David’s just putting the rest of the details in hopefully we can get the paperwork sorted and be on me way you guys at home might know but a bit of a tip if ever you’ve got a service book
With the Service stamps in and you see that any of them haven’t got a date on or a mileage on make sure you contact the garage that did it and get a date and a mileage on them stamps because even if they’ve stamped them they don’t
Have a date or a mileage we buy a car can’t accept them so what’s happened here is the engine management light has gone off the damage then on the car which is stayed at grade five went from 200 something quid to 400 odd pound so even though it took the engine
Management light off and the amount of money that that was costing it’s then up to the grade five to compensate for that so the actual price of this car is exactly the same it’s 230 quid which is absolutely scandalous originally before the engine management light was on it
Was costing an extra 230 I think it was and now it’s just gone up to compensate so we’re at the same exact same price I don’t really know what to say to be honest I’m I’m shocked you know I tried to defend we bind car in that I
Genuinely thought that it was a decent service and I’m sure it is for a lot of people I’m sure we buy a car is a decent service for a lot of people but to try and be as honest as you can on the valuation tool online to then come and
It’s way less based on the damage alone never mind the engine management light to then get the engine management light fixed thinking you’re better off for it to then add what it was deducting to the fact it’s a grade five so you’re no better off that can’t be right surely
And the funny thing is I know there’ll be disclaimers all over the website saying you know this is just a guide the valuation tool you put the damage in it’s literally just a guide but it’s miles off it’s not even accurate like I was trying to overcompensate by putting
In that the rear quarter was damaged twice to sort because I know it’s not great I know it’s bad I was a sales exec at Warrington Audi so I know all about grading part Exchange and putting details to damage in and I certainly know all about when stuff gets sent to
The auction and it’s not been graded correctly you get a bollocking and quite rightly because it’s you know it’s money from the business if you’ve said it’s okay but it’s actually quite Tatty and it goes through the block and you know they it makes a lot less than what
You’ve give for it based on you saying it’s all right I get it I understand that completely so I think that concludes the video at we buy any car I’m very sorry to the the lad in here it’s definitely not his fault but obviously he’s representing we b car so
What do I do anybody want for 500 quid thanks for watching today’s video I hope you enjoyed it please subscribe to the channel to see The Saga Continue

Great watch !!
They are scammers , I bought car from them for 9k and same car i bought back in 3 months they valued it at 6k with noting to be done and clean car its bullshit they are the worst.
Walked away from WBAC after a low price when I turned up with the car, quoted £28K, dropped to £26,250, so went to Cazoo and got what they quoted £27,750. This is the third car I have sold to Cazoo and never got less than the online quote. Just make sure you are honest with your description. Oh, and WBAC wanted me to leave the car with them on the Friday and they would pay me on Monday, WTF ! Cazoo had paid me before I left the site .
How much does CarVerticle charge ?
Fun video but you do realise this is basically the same flawed concept as Bargain Hunt 😂
What about the log book do you not have to have the car in your name for certain length of time??
WI buy any car is just rip off that’s all .Better sell the car to someone who really need a car and feel
Much better
WBAC. Biggest scammers going
I thought you had to have owned the car for 3 months and the v5 be in your name before you could sell it to we buy any car?
Sometimes I feel like waiting outside a We Buy Any Car location and offering to buying the cars off people for £100/150 more 🤣
We buy any car is a con, but its convenient for a lot of folk
All that effort to make £50 😂😂
Robbers
Don’t you have to own the car for 3months before you can sell it to we buy any car
Very useful video. My cars, both older Vauxhalls, come up at virtually scrap value on WBAC. Cosmplete waste of time.
genuine question. Do WBAC not care about the V5 being in a different name and address to you? Or doesn't it matter as it's going straight off into the trade? I'd of imagined that they'd want it to be registered to the seller at least for some kind of security? Dunno.
I got a 12k valuation, got there, and went down to like 8k. Sold it privately for 11k. 🙆. You got desperate to sell or down, right mental to sell a car to them.
The time and effort made it not worth it at all, there’s a big $$ loss
BCA own we buy any car and cinch. They keep the good stuff for forecourts and throw the crap through auction.
The red sold in bold letters already let us know you bought it. Silly goose
I have always found that I am better off selling a car as scrap rather than going to WeBuyAnyCar
Worse video ever made 🤦♀️
very nice video 🎉
Even still, that car could be £8/900 if you were to stick it back on msrketplace!
That car running would go for at least $3500 here in Canada.
I wouldn't personally sell to wbac
WBAC scammers, Carswow seem a bit better. When I trie to sell my 2022 highlander as I was moving to australia, these bastids asked 5-6K below the market rate.. Handed it in back to the dealer and walked away with a chunky £3400 profit.
BTW lad, you could have bought the car from the girl free if you had taken the OBD with you.
