TikTok user @jays_car_flips bought the Ford with 77,671 miles on the clock for £1,100.

After giving the car a good wash and getting rid of the stench, he took a few pictures with a professional camera to list the car online.

Hours later, he put the advert on Facebook Marketplace – and in two hours, he managed to sell the Ford Focus for a whopping £1,600.

The poster is a professional car flipper – and has managed to sell more than six cars in a year.

The video has gone viral on social media with more than 46,000 views and 29 comments.

Most viewers were blown away after discovering the profit he made after selling this second-hand car.

One said: “People will start calling you a scalper soon. Good job, man!”

Another said: “Satisfaction.”

A third asked the poster: “How does it work with log books? You need to wait until you get yours to transfer to the new owner?”

The poster answered: “We’ve had people just give us the whole V5 and transfer it from them to the new owner, and we have a receipt book for proof of purchase.”

This comes after a motoring expert made more than £1,400 profit by flipping a car on Facebook Marketplace – and it only took him a few days.

Plus, Ryan made more than £2,000 profit by flipping a car online.
