Sounds about the right price, i know of a lime green 12000 miles 03 03 for £109k...

[Davey S2]

Assuming thats out of warranty I would have said a few K less than that.

[dealmaker]

Sounds about right - try and get a warranty thrown in ! LP640 pricing has caused a firming of Murcie prices.

I see in Top marques today that Hudsons of London have dropped there White 04 one down to £129k, says its done 21k not sure if thats a miss print or not!!!

[GT2MAN-2]

Much less than £117K IMO. I would say nearer £107K

There was a 2003 yellow Murci that went sold by Black Horse finance through auction about 6 months ago for £86K.. but it did have over 40K miles on it.

Having heard what Ive heard from Jonny5 and an ex-owner on here...... sure, buy it at that price if you like, but dont expect more than £80-85K trade in within a year.

Thats the problem with these cars the difference between trade price and retail is massive, and unless you are lucky with a private sale or SOR you are gonna have to trade it in OUCH

And be careful on the credit side of things, I know an owner who had to pay the dealer nearly £22k to take away the car to cover the -ve equity

This was the situation I was in last year when I was selling my Murci. All the dealers stuck together on a trade price and funnily enough, very few people have £90k or so laying around for a private sale.

Things have changed a bit with the likes of Saffron Asset finance coming onto the scene as they'll finance a car from a private sale. So, you go and find a nice private Murci out there and they'll buy it and refinance it on to you. It's a nice gap in the market that they can really exploit.

Would have been handy to know about last year...

PS: I was the guy who took the bath on the £90k Murci. The only consolation was that it was then sat on the dealer's forecourt at £115k for over a year. So knowing what the dealer's pay trade, I wouldn't pay anything over £100k. I know the prep needs to go into it and everybody's got to earn a crust, but £25k or so's excessive in my eyes...
