That 52,000 miler..........

[simonb9]

That 52,000 miler that was up for £12,999 disappeared from the ads when I looked this morning, but is now up for sale at a dealers at £13,999. Wondered if he took less than £13K or they are selling it on his behalf ??

Sure it's the same one? The previous private ad didn't mention sat nav. Or did it - can't remember actually. with the same colour and mileage it certainly sounds likek the same one.

Could be different, just seems odd that the two previous privte ads (one on here and one on autotrader) have both disappeared........if he has sold it to a dealer he must have taken peanuts for it.

not neccesarily, some dealers are would be very happy with £1500 or 13% margin on a uased car....

Belmont in Aberdeen bought an 04 VXR that was going for a quick sale @ 20k in the ads - it appeared in their showroom a week later at 24k!!!

Thats only 16% gross margin. Take off a service, 4 Tyres, Network Q, prep, salesmans bonus and they might make 8% - doesnt seem unreasonable...
