Earlier this year, a customer visiting the webuyanycar.com Altrincham branch, in Greater Manchester, had come to sell his late father’s car. Once the customer had left, the buyer went to move the car, to find that the customer had made a grave mistake. Upon entering the car, the buyer discovered that the customer had left behind the box containing his father’s ashes. Thankfully, the ashes were promptly reunited with the customer.
