nox1111 Posted April 11 Share They go under the same banner - but Dekra head office confirmed that the WBC reports are "retail friendly" (their words). These reports can also not be used for roadworthy, even if it states the vehicle is roadworthy - unless they include the RWC with the sale. These reports are not picked up by actual Dekra branches if you want to pull it for reference, say when you bought a supposedly roadworthy car and fail the roadworthy test a day later - on many faults. This retail friendly report misses many many obvious things in favour of the retailer, and is not worth the paper that it isn't printed on, being a PDF. WBC trades as an auction house - and that means they are not liable for vehicle descriptions to be accurate. A fun little loophole. But they do own the cars while on their property, so don't understand how they can get by that. mazambaan, Me rida my bicycle and ChrisF 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shebeen Posted April 11 Share look guys. the 2nd hand car market was very inefficient, and ripe for disruption. if WBC didn;t do it, then someone else with a less dumb name would. but can we get back on topic with the name and shame please? friday is TOMORROW and we need to build up some steam.

Andreas_187 Posted April 11 Share Do you really need a Dekra report to tell you what's going to go wrong with a Range Rover with 200,000km? G P, ChrisF and Brakepad 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
