Guys,

Anybody dealt with carbase.biz? Seen a nice Q5 but not sure about car supermarkets and the online reviews are either brilliant but brief or awful and very detailed......

Cheers..... R

car supermarkets can be good places to buy for the low prices.

Generally tend to be bottom spec and/or higher mileage lease or fleet vehicles with full service history. Generally unprepared (not valeted, stone chips repaired etc).

Dont expect any where near a good price part exchange - better to sell privately and buy cash. Dont buy their warranties or use their finance.

The sales people are clueless in general - they tried to sell me a warranty on a car with 11 months manufacturers warranty left. I declined.

BUT - If the car is perfect and the price is right then why not? you have more rights than if you were to buy privately.
