I have just sold my ST Line through Motorway. Basically a free years driving + money in my pocket. It did not meet what they quoted, but was not far off. The price on WBAC had dropped on it by £1000 in a week. Wondering if things are starting to settle.
Our Vignale Puma is due in December and the dealer has guaranteed the px price on my wife’s fiesta until the end of January.

How did you find dealing with Motorway? Are you obliged to sell or can you refuse an offer made, even if it’s what they valued the car at?

Well I will update on Monday. I think the offer has been withdrawn by the dealer. I went to accept it and there was not an option to. I Googled reviews and found two instances of this happening in the first few pages.

My son sold his Focus two weeks ago through them and got £700 more than the valuation and it went without a hitch

Got it sorted ok today, just a technical glitch. Same company ( different branches) have now had 3 of our Fords.
You don’t have to go through Motorway, one of them we just asked what they would pay and went for it. They still pick it up and clear the finance etc exactly the same way they would if going through motorway

Possibly.

Not because I don’t like the car or have any issues, but to take advantage of the current prices. I’d probably order a new one and sit tight waiting as I’d be in no rush having another car in the house to drive if needed.

I could sell mine and break even on what I paid (so in essence 15 months of new car for free) and get a new plate for the same money.

Hooray, had a phone call this morning to say the car is now at the dealership, and can pick it up on Tuesday. Also, was told that the value of my part ex had also gone up. Looking forward to collecting it and just hope it was worth the wait...

Nice one! Good luck with the pick-up.
