There's a chance I may be forced to sell the Tuscan due to some house/mortgage stuff going on. For anyone that's sold recently... what's the market like?

Last time i sold, the majority of incoming calls were from dealers, but after 3 months I found a genuine private buyer. Car was sold for about midway between dealers offers and what they'd sell it for which felt ok to me.

Is it just dealers looking to buy cheap and sell at the upper end, or are private sellers achieving close(ish) to trusted dealers for top condition cars?

My gut feel said keep it until next year at least but if my mortgage woes don't go my way then it seems like the only option!

Not sure on the market but the last thing I would do was come on a forum and suggest that I need to sell a car. You'll get a load of chancers trying to get it for nothing

Ah ... But that's a Convertible smile and not even an 'S' smile .

A number of those 27 on the search are sold including the Vert at HHC. So not too many on the market at the moment.
