A few weeks ago I decided to put the vxr up for sale and advertised it on autotrader due to only needing one car, the other being a lease car. I have priced it at £15250 which is the best price on the net. The car is red with 19" alloys and under 5k on the clock and in mint condition. In the last 4 weeks I have had only 6 phone calls and 1 viewing and he didn't want a test drive as he was viewing one a few days later in blue from the dealers which he then brought. I think it was up for £16995 with similar miles but was his first choice colour.
So peeps why are these cars not selling privately? I have heard of other people finding it hard to sell these cars but can't understand why people are prepared to spend an extra 2k for some X demo cars with similar miles to more miles on them, why is this? Do dealers offer more on the warranty side of things or do they just offer the standard manufactures warranty?
I'm just glad that I don't have to sell and can wait for someone to come along, but I didn't expect it to be like this for such an amazing car.
I did go down to my local vxl dealer as they had a red one in, ex demo with more miles and wanted £17995 same spec, they offered me 14K
Thanks Paul.
