I'm really surprised this has not sold yet given the miles and spec....

Is the market slowing?

Are we going to see 1M's at sub 30k this year ?

Well he has priced it similar to what main dealers are asking for theirs, I suppose a lot of buyers would rather buy an AUC car. As for prices, the cheapest 1M for sale I could find the other day was around £35k so they won't be dropping to £30k this year IMO. Two dealers offered me £33k for mine last week, saying it would be put up for sale around £36750.

Mind letting me know if you have nav, HK and low mileage mate?

Mines been valued (if you could call it that) at £30k by 3 dealers and £32.5k by another. On 25k miles though bit pretty loaded with kit.

Cheers.

I didn't load mine up with options like nav/HK, just things like privacy glass and Bluetooth. It has only done 13k miles but is absolutely pristine. I suspect the mileage is hurting your cars value, most for sale are low mileage. Why not give Focus RS Direct a call in Bristol, they are advertising for 1Ms wanted for stock at the moment. I haven't tried them myself but have heard they give fair valuations on cars they buy.

Thanks. Yeah, mileage has been the killer, but enjoyed every single one. Cheers for the tip.

1Ms without Sat Nav are sometimes harder to shift so perhaps that's why it took a little longer to sell.

It seems a few people who have had their 1Ms for a while are thinking of selling at the moment. What are you replacing it with?

If you do ask them for a valuation any chance you can pm me what they offer?

Probably wont replace with anything just now, i bought an R8 V10 Spyder last year and the plan was to sell the 1M back then but i just couldnt do it as the wife loves the 1M so have now ended up with both.

She is using the X6 more and more the 1M just seems to be a waste sitting, if anything was to replace it it would probaly be a C63 AMG.

Scary thing is the 1M is a bloody match against the V10 once it gets going and get stthe power down.
