    Does anyone know of any car garages that would take a scooter motorbike as a trade in against a car?
    The sisters fella is looking at getting a car and asked me did I know but wasn't too sure.
    He would be looking at a reputable garage rather than a chap with a yard of cats at the side of his house.

    Always better to get a private sale if you can

    I'd be very put off by anyone selling a car who had a yard full of cats myself ;-)

    Seriously though I'd be surprised if any car dealer in Waterford would do that. Both bike dealers that I know of in Waterford have no affiliation with any of the car dealers in town so are unlikely to take a scooter as a trade in.

    I'd say the only option would be a private sale first.

    The bike itself is only worth a few hundred euro and we were thinking that if a car garage did take em in the trade in value could be worth more

    It never is worth more as a trade in
