The Peter Vardy Group Launches New Site GoodByeCar to Help People who Want to Sell their Car the Easy Way, without the Hassle and Stress External

The Peter Vardy Group, which has changed the face of automotive retail by making car purchase a pleasurable and enjoyable experience, is planning to bring the same opportunity to people who want to sell their car.

Rather than undergoing the pressures and inconveniences associated with trying to sell a pre-owned car privately, people who want to move on from their motor can now say goodbye by logging on to www.goodbyecar.uk.

The new service, GoodByeCar, is the latest initiative from the innovative Scottish-based enterprise, which has 5 franchise dealerships and 8 CARZ used car supermarkets across Scotland. It currently employs 1100 people, including a strong cohort of industry trainees.

Just as in its sector-leading car sales environment, Peter Vardy has made the transaction process as simple and easy as possible. All customers have to do is:

• Log on, enter details of their vehicle and apply for an online quote.

• Book an appointment for an GoodByeCar team member to review their car, either at their home or at a number of convenient locations.

• Agree the deal, and the car is either collected or delivered to a Peter Vardy outlet.

• Collect the cash.

Derek Lyon, Remarketing Director at the Peter Vardy Group said, “The demand for pre-owned cars has never been stronger. Recent figures show that people are taking official warnings about public transport seriously and want their own wheels."

“It is a great time to sell, and the Peter Vardy Group undertakes to find customers the fairest price, fast. Not only that, if we can’t beat any like-for-like appraisal quote, we’ll give you £500 in cash*."

“Trying to sell a car privately can be a long and stressful situation with a number of potential pitfalls. GoodByeCar will offer a valuation quote which is guaranteed for seven days, removing the hassle, and making the transaction as straightforward as possible.”

The appraisal service is currently available at Peter Vardy locations in Aberdeen, Dundee, Edinburgh, Lanarkshire, and Glasgow and will soon be available in Ayr, Stirling and Inverness as the service is rolled out.

It will also support young people in these locations, with the group proposing to take on at least eight Kickstart Colleagues as trainee buyers, all of whom will benefit from a full training, mentoring and support programme.

Group Chief Executive Peter Vardy said, “We pride ourselves on fairness, transparency and convenience, and this latest service will ensure our customers get the best possible price for their cars as well as enjoying a quick and easy transaction process.”
