existential Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I want to sell my french registered LHD car to a dealer in uk - Google comes up with several but I presume many are "wide boys" - can anyone recommend a reliable dealer from personal experience ? Thanks ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnOther Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 As long as you get the price you want I'm not quite sure why it matters if they are 'wide boys' or not ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pierre ZFP Posted December 1, 2016 Share Posted December 1, 2016 'reliable dealer' - that's an oxymoron isn't it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulT Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 Just thinking of the people I have heard saying 'oh, we traded it in because it was making a funny noise / it was worn out / oh it needed..... / etc'.Obviously, honesty is a one way street so perhaps why trade in prices are low because the dealer needs to put the cars right.

AnOther Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 That may be so for ordinary UK cars and dealers and while I'm sure there are bargain basement LHD cowboys out there of whom one should rightfully be equally wary for the most part you'll find that reputable ones tend to concentrate on relatively new and good condition LHD cars and a perusal of the web sites of the major players shows you that, e.g.http://www.londonlhdcentre.com/lhd-cars-for-saleObviously I have no idea what your budget might be however as general observation I would suggest that if you're in the market for a car at lets say €10k or under then the risks of buying in UK are just too great and because of that you really should buy locally.

Loiseau Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 But doesn't the OP want to SELL rather than buy? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cajal Posted December 10, 2016 Share Posted December 10, 2016 My father in law was an accountant with the commision in Brussels. On retirement and return to the UK, a few years ago, he sold his lhd Beamer and Subaru to the above London dealers. No problems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
