Anyone had any experience of RIDICULOUS dealer trade in values.
I ordered a new CL63 AMG from Mercedes Brooklands a few months ago and the salesman was a little bit cagey when it came to the value of my 04/54 CL65 AMG. He said he could give a more accurate figure closer to the trade in time. Fine i thought. I get a call saying that the new car has arrived early, so of i trundle all excited to Brooklands to have a look and get mine valued. They bring round the new one, looks great in Designo Mystic Blue (as is the 65). They looked over the trade in car, everything is fine, apart from the tarnished chrome rims that my dog ****** on repeatidly whilst i was away for three months, but i allowed a sum for that. We wll give you a value this afternoon. They rang, and offered me £26000. I told them to basically stuff it and they can keep the new one (and my five grand deposit). Anyone else had any dealings like this.
