They were usually brilliant.

There's an ad on lately about selling off any old watches you have lying around, they show this big spider walking across a watch and it's horrible.

I like Clive Owen. Why is he walking round market stalls, picking up bits of fruit and telling me to gamble? Was the money really that good?

It's scary how they target the elderly and confused. I'm amazed there aren't adverts extolling the virtues of Brexit and the Daily Express.

Im probaIbly making a mountain out of a molehill, but in this advert she constantly changes the direction of her stare. I keep thinking she's talking to both members an elderly couple to get them to discuss the save for a funeral crap. Seems a bit sinister

I hope you aren't around 50 or older, I was off with depression a couple of years ago and every fucking advert was over 50's funeral plans.

I hate Vorderman and that other lying c*nt Schofield. She is a maths genius, she fucking well knows that equity release will fuck people over, yet the greedy c*nt happily takes the coin to wreck peoples retirements. As for that grey haired bell splash, he knows wbac rip you off, yet again, he's happy to add to the disgusting £1.7 million he already earns - fucking despise them both

The WBAC ad is very partonising. Not everyone can take a hit on their sale to stroke puppies.

There's a similar advert for houses, I'd hate to think how much they underpay.

Now the rip off loan companies and their 10,000% interest rates have all been sacked off a new threat appears.

Any of the McNasty's adverts. Hate the voice on the fella and all this "like getting your monies worth" shite does my head in No, you are not getting you monies worth, you are being thieving c*nts, trying to get more than you paid for you, fucking minegbags.

WBAC are owned by British Car Auctions.

So British Car Auctions underpay for the cars they buy, put the cars through their own auctions, then cream off a commission on the sale. It's a racket.

But selling a car privately is a proper pain in the arse.

Then a rich c*nt advertises that its a wonderful way to sell a car.

Private sales are shit too, but a decent dealer will buy the car and give more than WBAC - we found this out selling her Dads 5 series when he was no longer fit to drive.

The problem is, I always source my cars from brokers (after hours of searching out the right deal and trying to screw it down as far as I can) and brokers don't usually take PX. Normally it's a PCP and usually there's a margin to be had in buying the car for the PCP price at/towards the end of the contract then selling it privately to make enough to pay for the deposit down on the next one.

We sold the car direct to the dealer, he was no longer fit to drive and we had no use for the car. A lot of dealers are offering more for cars than WBAC to get new stock to sell.

In your situation, its got to be private sadly to get the most out of it.

Arty-farty ads that go around the houses, do my head in.

They waffle on about this, that, the other, waffle, waffle, and then at the end go, oh by the way, we're selling this!

There's an Asda one doing the rounds at the moment, and until the very end, had no idea what it was advertising.
