v12v dealer bids?
Discussion
I remember a recent thread but can't find it.
Thinking of selling my v12v and wondering if any of you guys had good experiences?
I asked Works for a bid and was not impressed.
I will call Rachel Stanton at AM Cheltenham who i had a good contact with in the past.
Any other idea? Wasn't there a Gavin at Grange somewhere who was good too?

Put it on as a private sale. I sold mine to an AML dealer for not a lot. They put a 10k mark-up on the car and sold it within a week. Put in on in the classifieds for their bid plus 5k and then wait. Good luck.
PS: I regret selling mine but the gap between a V12V and a V12VS was 75k and i found that excessive. That gap will come down as the V12V will firm up and the 12VS has further to fall.

Agreed on last point.PS: I regret selling mine but the gap between a V12V and a V12VS was 75k and i found that excessive. That gap will come down as the V12V will firm up and the 12VS has further to fall.

As above £10k seems about the normal margin for a dealer at this price point - so have a look at what dealers are selling them for and then keep going until you get a bid of £10k less than that.
Why are you selling it - only seems like you've had it 5mins?

£10K markup perhaps but nowhere near £10K margin. Overheads, prep, warranty, VAT will diminish that to £5K or less in profit. When you get to £75K plus for an Aston experience has shown me that people want to buy from a main dealer rather than privately.

Yup, agree with what you have said - markup not margin, my poor choice of words. When you get to £75K plus for an Aston experience has shown me that people want to buy from a main dealer rather than privately.
I sold my V12 to the same dealer as Hornbaek, in fact the dealer offered me his car when I was looking, having done a little research on here.
They added 10k to the bid price of my 61 plate and it sold quickly, but their asking price was about 5k higher than I paid for it about 7 months earlier....
Agreed if you can handle the potential nonsense a private sale seems to bring, go for it. Convenience for me when I was looking to buy, and when ones looking to sell meant I favoured dealers.
Incidentally the price I sold for was the best of 3, which after some haggling were in a 2.5k band.
