A man who took his Audi R8 into WeBuyAnyCar and 'nearly fainted' after they told him how much they'd hand over for it has gone back for round two.
YouTuber Harley Perkins took his Audi R8 V10 Plus into the WeBuyAnyCar pod after previously taking his Tesla in last year, and was told he’d get about half what he paid for it.
He was left shocked when he was given the option to sell his £74k Audi for what he believes is a shockingly low amount.
The first time round, the YouTuber had his Audi checked over before he was told that the fancy motor would bring him in around £58k if he wanted to hand over the keys to WeBuyAnyCar immediately.
"£58k, are you taking the mick out of me?" the YouTuber said. "It's absolutely ridiculous, oh my god, I was about to faint when he said the price. I'm never coming back to this place ever again."

While his viewers were half and half in the comments about the price range, he decided to hop over to AutoTrader to peek at how much they’d give him for the car.
It showed him a selection of used Audi R8 V10 Plus cars for sale between the prices of £52,000 and £84,900.
To be fair, it seems like he’d get a better deal there, but that didn’t stop him from going to WeBuyAnyCar for another round on the valuations for the very same car.
He began showing himself entering the pod once again and asking the bloke if he remembered him from last time.
That’s when the worker told him he’s not ‘interested’ in giving him a valuation for his YouTube channel.
He went on to say the company buys 15,000 cars per week, and when Harley explained it’s ‘everyone in the comments’ who were slating the £58k and he can’t ‘control’ what people say, the worker went on to claim that the car owner was ‘not interested in selling’ his car to the company.
Therefore, he was ‘not interested’ in providing a quote, which is when Harley shut the door and backed off, writing in overlay that he was ‘banned for life’ from the company.
While the company says ‘WeBuyAnyCar’, it certainly looks like they weren't willing to buy that car anymore.
