A bloke, who owns a collection of super-rare cars worth $5million (£3.9million), took his vehicles to WeBuyAnyCar to find out what they'd offer him for them.
The YouTuber Mark McCann is the proud owner of some of the "best examples" of high-end cars in the US. But when he decided to get his multi-million dollar collection valued by a company that specialises in buying secondhand vehicles – he got the shock of his life when he saw the offer.
At first, McCann took his six vehicles for an evaluation from independent expert Tom Hartley, who said: "Price of retail value. Now this is going to be a price which is absolutely accurate advice." Given that cars decrease in value with the mileage, age and condition, Hartley still estimated they were worth an impressive £1,380,000.

But when he went to get the value at WeBuyAnyCar he ran into a series of issues. He was initially told he needed to take the cars in separately at different stores after 'superior' members of staff got 'spooked' by the high-end collection.
So, McCann decided to go undercover, wearing different outfits and wigs, with a cameraman hiding nearby as he got the cars valued. He said: "WeBuyAnyCar aren't known for giving the best prices, which we found out."

One of McCann's cars was marked as 'grade three' due to a few 'scratches' evaluated at £35,647 as opposed to Tom Hartley's £150,000 evaluation. The others seemed to see similar results, with another given a value of just £17,000 compared to Hartley's £140,000.
Overall, the six-car collection was worth £1,380,000 at Hartley's but just £823,910 at WeBuyAnyCar.

"They literally will buy any car, even if it's tatty or even a scrap car," she said. The concept can be brilliant but it just doesn't seem ideal with rare super cars.
"The system can be fantastic if you're a seller […] but it just doesn't get this specialist car thing."
Viewers were left stunned by the clip as they took to the comments insisting they should be worth much more. One viewer said: "Car valuations are mental," as another added: "Very funny, yet informative Mark!"
WeBuyAnyCar was contacted by the Daily Star for a comment but they declined to provide one.
