Why is nobody buying my minter

t you give people in readers rides about their car, the glorious chariot by which you measure and decry everyone else's cars is an Audi A2?Tc24 said:
Friend of mine is having similar troubles selling his well looked after 306. It's only got 50 something thousand on the clock, full service history and he's asking £1000 for it. Examples with double the mileage in worse condition are selling for only a couple of hundred less...
On an old 306, mileage has little bearing on value tbh.

Using the word "minter" for a start. I'm willing to bet that like 99.9% of cars advertised as "minters" it's nothing of the sort. People need to start looking up what "mint" actually means before describing something as such.
Actually means. Nailed it right there!To "coin" a phrase. Most incorrectly overused word when describing car condition.

Regardless of its condition, most people in the market for a 306 won't want to pay a grand and most people with a grand to spend won't want a 306 unfortunately (GTI6/Rallye exclusive of course). Unfortunate but thats how it is, the UK used car market is buyer driven.MGJohn said:
