I put the Mondeo into WBAC a couple of days ago......  and drumroll........ £500!  :D

How do they know it's a heap of shite though?  :-\                                                                          ;D

WBAC have upped their offer on the Mondeo to £640!  :y

Woohoo!  Now they've offered £720!  ;D

They're getting desparate to get their hands on my rare 2.2TDCi Titanium X! I've just had a text. £725!  :D

£935 for the mighty Signum today.

Not nearly enough for a future classic. :)

I've just had another text from WBAC and they've now upped their offer on my extremely rare 2.2 Mondeo to £755!  ::)

I'm tempted to go along just to see how much they knock off when they actually see it!  ;D

Hello, I also think that the prices of used cars are just a parody, but if they have such high prices, people will not buy them, let them keep them for such a price, if they buy, they will increase the prices and it will go up all the time

I'm sure there used to be words that describe 'fake leather'........ words like  plastic and vinyl. :)

Don't sound as upmarket as Artico though. :)

Different product ;)

MB Tex is old school vinyl. Artico is an modern refabricated leather hybrid material  ;)
