I made more than £5,500 profit on eBay car flip – and it only took me 24 hours
A CAR expert claim that he made more than £5,500 profit flipping a luxury car on eBay – and only took him 24 hours.
The car enthusiast took to social media to show users how he made a big profit, after selling a second-hand Bentley Continental GT with more than 95,000 miles on the clock.
TikTok user @qureshhh found a Bentley on Gumtree for £16,300, but after some hard negotiating, he got it for £14,000.
The poster said: “I started looking for a Bentley Continental GT just after I turned 21 years old. I was obsessed with these cars, I love a Bentley.
“I contacted the guy, and we agreed on £14,000 if I came the next day and picked it up.
“So I jumped on the train to Sheffield and paid the seller the money.”
He revealed that one of his mates is an expert on Bentleys and helped him with the repairs – so the poster gave him £50 for his efforts.
After changing the wheel spacers (£100), lowering the links (£79) and spray painting it (£10), the man posted an advert on eBay – which cost him £20.
Shockingly, he managed to sell the car in just 24 hours for a staggering £20,000, earning him a profit of £5,741.
He continued: “Someone came straight away and paid me the full amount of money and took it away.”
The poster is an expert on flipping cars and has dozens of videos showing the vehicles that he has sold.
The video has gone viral on social media with more than 800,000 views and most commenters were blown away after discovering the profit he made in less than a day.
One said: Hefty profit and fun as well. Looks like a win-win.”
Another said: “100k mileage? You sold it at the right time for that profit.”
This comes after a man claims that he made more than £1,500 flipping a car on Facebook – which only took him a few days.
Plus, a motors expert has revealed that he made over £1,000 on the easiest car flip ever.
