White/blue CC car has ended up at a dealer.
£110k
I would tread very carefully here, I enquired about a car said dealer had for sale, they told me they owned the car and it wasn’t SOR. Asked a few more questions and it turned out it wasn’t there’s it’s was definitely SOR. The following week they then decided to add a few thousand to the advertised price. Safe to say the car was removed from sale and then ended up in another dealers on SOR for a few thousand less than the original asking price. £110k
Do they own the car bough last week for 80k something off a auction, prob not. Do they know anything about the cars history, nope. Is it worth there 20k mark up they want. Mmmmmmmmmmmm let me think.
Interesting they haven’t bothered to mention it’s barley been serviced throughout its life.

So you are valuing an 8,000 mile CS at 67k?...regardless of history I think it’s fair to say you are way off the markDo they own the car bough last week for 80k something off a auction, prob not. Do they know anything about the cars history, nope. Is it worth there 20k mark up they want. Mmmmmmmmmmmm let me think.

Compared to others advertised this sold for market value on CC recently which was high 80k.
I’m not off the mark at all

You've gone the wrong way- it sold on CC for £87,500, now advertised for £109,990. (25% mark up)
Actually, the buyer would have paid £92,750 including premium, so it's an 18.6% mark up as advertised. Even with (the more usual?) 10% mark up it still makes it a £100k+ car which I think is fine for a dealer-backed car, as opposed to a zero-comeback auction sale. Isn't buying cars at auction to sell on at profit the usual MO for car dealers? Rightly or wrongly their business models rely on the fact that most people are not brave enough (or have the liquid assets) to buy cars at auctions. Don't see an issue personally.Besides, as I mentioned before - try finding another 8k mile 997.1 GT3.....
