where and what could i part ex my 456 for?

[andyleeds]

i am considering getting out of my 456 and am wondering what to get instead, then it got me thinking where and what i could part ex it for.....even thought about a more normal car like a FF range rover.... any ideas?

[andyleeds]

ah yes, i can see that might be confusing... lol i meant full fat range rover.....i have a 355 as my fun car so i thought about getting a range rover instead for less cash

[andyleeds]

yes that would be a good option, not sure where i would find a garage that would do that sort of part ex though lol

[andyleeds]

i will phone a few and see what the market says...... if no good then i will take off the market and stick it away for 12 months, and see where we are then....... but i might try the private route as i would be able to put a figure on it that would be significantly under what its being advertised at now

hi mate, i did have a quick chat with mike at rardleys looked after the car for most of its life so he knew the history was A1, i wont tell you what he offered me for it but lets just say it was 2/3's of what he told me what the retail value! lol so i politely declined..... its currently up for sale at foskers (silver one at £75k) which i think is too much in the current climate would be interested to know where you would put it as someone who knows the marque.

i can see me keeping it if it has net gone by april time.....

[andyleeds]

yep thats whats supposed to be happening but so far it hasn't being done.....

[andyleeds]

ps ruby the profile of you past cars is enormous and ver y enjoyable to read!

yep the ad needs changing as we have done a load of work on it, service, belts and a couple of other very minor things but its now perfect, we sold the wheels and put the originals on with brand new tyres, so the pics need changing and the price is wrong...... lol so pretty much everything needs doing but for what ever reason it hasn't happened...... a bit disappointing really

i am not desperate to sell the car as i actually haven't driven it that much, but now i have moved out of london i might get the the chance, but i bought a 335 spider last year so i was hoping that i might get to drive that, and i dont really need two fun cars so to speak hence changing it to a daily driver like a FFRR

i am going to call tony tomos and sort the ad.....
