WeBuyAnyCar is part of BCA, British Car Auctions, BCA have typically taken trade-ins  from the dealers which BCA then sell at auction.   BCA are cutting out the dealers acting as middle men by approaching the owner/seller directly, bypassing the customer trade in process.
I'm warned that the WeBuyanyCar offer is a baiting tactic, when they have inspected your car, there may be  a heavily revised offer to you

WBAC offered me £50 for my Jazz. And that was before seeing it.
I'd rather set it alight in the street

Yep, heard that many times.

What are fourth (usually G), fifth and sixth characters in the VIN?  eg. GA1.

If you look at and read the Home page of Club Jazz, you will see it mentions the Chassis codes of the various Generations of the Honda Jazz.  These are the numbers you are asking about in the VIN.

The post is here: https://clubjazz.org/forum/index.php?topic=6323.0

The Mk4 chassis code(s) haven't been added yet. Mk4 is GR.

Here is one of the best guides for the Jazz / Fit

Interesting explanation of why we have "Jazzes" rather than "Fits"

"Honda may have planned to use the name Fitta, and it was released in Japan under that name in 2001. Because Fitta in Scandinavian languages is slang for vagina, Honda instead used Jazz in most markets and Fit in the Americas."

What self respecting male Spanish speaker would buy a Ford Pinto  ( but I think Porsche means the same  ).

Yeah, check out BCA fees for your money transfer and admin fees. Still, our local WBAC place in the Asda car park is never quiet so some folk obviously need the money pronto and are prepared to pay.

BCA are also selling direct to the public. https://www.cinch.co.uk/about-us

@Coffeecup - Hope the transaction goes smoothly for you.

I know there's a couple of other buying service suggestions, but what's the We Buy Any Car valuation?  Apparently they're very keen at the moment and on another forum I visit people are tracking how their cars are increasing in value.

It seems if you get a quote then leave it a few days they'll often email with a higher offer.   Some people say they knock the value down when you take the car but others have sold to them without issue.

We had an email the other day from our local dealer asking if we wanted to sell them our 2014 Jazz.

Why not give    coffeecup   your local dealers details if they are in the market to buy a Jazz.

Sure - it was more of a general comment that any Honds dealer might be interested although I see there was a later post saying that had been tried.

Our local dealer is Cheshire Oaks Honda, but the email refers to all the Holdcroft group dealers so that includes Warrington and Stoke.

I've never used them but I'm seeing quite a few reports on forums that as long as you've described the car accurately they do give the offered price.  Right now they're so keen they're increasing some offers.

You could be fined for mis-spacing the plate.

BMW, Audi and Mercedes should all have a model called Asole...... ( and for last few years JLR,  as quite a few Range Rover drivers would deserve that name ).

That and c**k wafter. Oh the self entitled look at me brigade!

When I see folk in those cars, I always comment "yeah, but your jealous of my cars reliability though Mr JLR"

BTW don't forget to remind Mr JLR that he is driving an Indian car, and that swanky modern Mr Volvo is now driving a Chinese Trumpchi. LOL.
