I just want to share a recent experience that I had when selling my car in preparation for Tesla. I had my car for 7 years which was bought brand new, so I tried Motorway first as the quote was about 13k instead of 12k from webuyanycar. Then it took me quite a while to take all those pictures and completed Motorway process. The collection was finally booked nearly 2 weeks after I completed the process on Motorway.
Then on the collection date, a driver came up, inspected the car for 30 minutes, then listed 30+ defects (cosmetic) and while he was going through them with me, it just felt like he was scolding me for why I didn't include them when I posted it on Motorway. Sure, I did not notice that tiny little scratch which is under the car. The driver rang the dealer, the dealer pulled the offer.
Then I drove to one of the local office from webuyanycar. The whole process took about 10 minutes, without the agent nitpicking at all (just asked me if there are any significant scratches). The final quote was very similar to the online one I did, which came to 11.6k. Sold my car, done.
I would say unless you are certain that your car has nearly show-room condition, stay away from Motorway as that stress and time you spent is not worth that few hundreds you saved there. I'm sure it might depend on the collection company they used, but a 30 minute inspection vs 30 seconds inspections, which one would you choose?
