So as explained in a previous post, I have a near 8 year old Octy vRS with 105k on the clock that is currently throwing up an error - telling me the inlet manifold will almost certainly require replacing.
I can clear this error and the error remains cleared for a while - I am confident that should I trade-in somewhere the light will remain off long enough for me to receive my quote
I was just wondering how well WBAC look at a car before making the final offer?
I know they will go around it with a fine toothcomb, just looking for any scratches/dents to knock the money off. Do they just start it up, check for error lights and that is it?
Or are we going to get some revving, some test driving - something more than just switching engine on & off again?
Private sale is off the table for me. I don't mind trading in and the car going to auction. I don't mind WBAC taking a hit. However I refuse to simply clear the error code and sell privately.
