I've recently had a bit of a hankering for an i8, but Sytner really want to bend me over on trade in.
What is the collective wisdom on best/easiest way to sell a 911.
WBAC and classified ads currently not being considered.
trade in will be about 10k cheaper than retail, but they will have to warranty it for 2 years and pay vat on the profit. What is the collective wisdom on best/easiest way to sell a 911.

What's the spec, and miles and what was offered, post that up and you might get a PM offering a few k more.
That's about your lot really or do a sor but that can take ages and leave you with no car for months.
Gen 2 turbo S
Popular car - bought by enthusiastics, who should be happy to buy private, assuming sensible colour combo.
If it's got warranty, FSH etc should make it an even easier private sale.
Problem is most private buyers will want it to be 10% below retail, which means private bid might not be much more than trade bid....say 5% - so potentail lots of hassle for couple £k
SOR might be the best route to go - but stick to the top people I.e JZ etc

Have you looked at TH Boler?
They charge £1500 to sell your car sale or return..
I'm thinking of selling my 458 through them.
If I get what they think, it'll give me £15-20k more than selling via the main dealer network...
Tempting heh?
No affiliation by the way, other than thinking of using them.

£1500 SOR is cheap as chips
Not sure they can achieve the top prices, being that they are general sellers and newly established.
A few SOR set-ups have gone pop - leaving sellers without cars (legally bought by new owner) and no cash (still owned by the dealer).
These guys look like a decent propper set up - but they are always some risk in SOR.
I'm just about to sell a car via SOR - price is £4K+ but then again they are recognised as the single biggest independent player in that specific marque.

2010 39k, coupe, 2 owner, current owner last three years. All OPC history and never out of warranty (currently a year left).Popular car - bought by enthusiastics, who should be happy to buy private, assuming sensible colour combo.

Basalt with Black/Cream leather, centre locks/ Pilot sports. NO rear wiper or sunroof.
Sytner:- 58.5
911V (unseen) 64 (with an apology for being a low ball offer)
But what would retail be??
And why would a private buyer need 10% off, surely buying a car within warranty removes the private buying gamble?
