Anyone got a recommendation on dealers interested in buying a DB9. Mine is a 2 owner 2006 car which has 32k miles and a full AMSH.

I don’t want to sell it privately so just looking to sell it to a specialist dealer.

I’d have thought someone like Bamford Rose, McGurk, Nicholas Mee or maybe AML Performance might be a good starting point if you’re keen to sell it without waiting too long. It’s obviously not a good time of year to be selling & if you can leave it another month or so it might help.

I'd go to Mcgurks everytime.

Everywhere you go to you will get trade prices, Mcgurks know how much they can sell it for and what profit they want, make sure the mechanicals are upto date and cosmetically it is immaculate then they will not mark you down.

A friend mentioned a site called Motorway last night. She had an Audi A1 (a bit different to an Aston I know) and they middleman the car to dealers. Hers was paid for in advance and collected a couple of hours later without hassle.

I’ve just tried Motorway, I got a couple of ridiculously low quotes and the best quote was from an “Aston Martin specialist” which was about £7-8k less than dealer retail price so maybe the true trade value?

Sounds about right. I traded in my first Vantage for £23k and dealer put £7.5k on it. By the time they service, do a bit of paint touch up and put a warranty on it the need to make a living too. For a car thats in a dealer for £35k expect the dealer paid mid to high twenty for it.

Try Austin Owen, he's just bought and sold 2 so I think he'll be interested.

Did you buy that from Tom Hartley (or Jr) by any chance? - just missed out on a v similar spec one they had about 18 months/2 years ago!

Nope, bought from Edinburgh in 2012, I’m the second owner.
