Are A6's not selling?

[nicktowe]

I have my 16 mnth old A6 3.0tdi Le Mans Quattro for sale and have had no interest at all, apat from companies promising to match my car with people on their database!

Its a high spec car, and i thought the Daytona Grey was a great colour for it. Its priced below others on the market, but does have a slightly higher mileage.

I get 34 mpg average from my 3.0tdi and 40mpg on a run. Thts good for a luxury car that goes well and handles well too.

I need to get £25k for it, which is below book according to Parkers!

Your profile says you paid £33,500 new 16mths ago, and you also indicate you've put a fair few miles on it?

I think it would be nothing short of astonishing under almost any circumstances if you could get away with only dropping £8.5K.

I bought my Merc diesel auto at 5mths old, 6K miles, and it was over £10K less than new.

I was lucky with my deal timed it exactlky right and got a car for less than used ones on the forecourt. Dealer won't match that deal now. The list for the spec of mine was £42k.

You are probably right, but I have to say the difference between a 3.0 quattro and a 2.0 fgront whell drive is enormous. They feel like completely different cars. Certainly, for an every day car with no sporting pretensions the 2.0 is probably fine. It would be interesting to know what mpg people get from a 2.0 tdi, my 3.0 does 35mpg average and over 40 mpg on a run as long as i stay under 85mph. Not bad for a big automatic car that does 0-60 in 7 secs (when u ask it too)

if one has the cash this is the time to buy these A6. Last year I was quoted £40,000 plus for an Avant 3.0 Le Mans. This summer, a new one with the same spec was £32,000. I put an order and I will enjoy it for many years.

A 2.0 is too weak for my personal use - I travel with my family in Europe from time to time.

Second hand an Audi A8 TdI would be also an ideal choice.

This is the time to make good deals with car dealership IMHO.

I have had loads of calls from companies saying they will match my car with a buyer, because they can offer finance they have a number of prospective buyers.

Do these companies really work? Will they sell the car? As a rul ethey want £70-100 up front.

Has anyone use one of them that they would recommend?
