Struggling market?

Post by raceman » Sat Jun 30, 2012 3:02 pm

Seems the bottom has fallen out of the RS6 market at the mo. Getting offered silly money for my 52 saloon, 3rd attempt to sell it!

Just my luck!

Ahhh, poor bookfather, he's only useful skill was found out to be nothing more than valuing 10yr cars using Moneysupermarket.com.
We're all well aware the arse has fallen out of the C5 market, it's no surprise and it ain't rocket surgery as to why. However, it is tedious telling us all "what it books at", in fact, it's gotten to the point where it's clearly just to purposely upset C5 owners or people trying to sell. Is this your true intention, bookfather?

I reckon I could sell mine to the first serious buyer if I decide to sell.

Colour combo, spec and condition sells a car regardless of market, people who buy these cars and otber high end car marques are generally affected by what the market is doing and will always buy the best one they can regardless of cost.

Well that's what I always do, and generally you don't lose as much either as there are people with a similar mindset as me
