Sold my CS
« on: 22 November 2021, 15:14 »
My 10 month CS ownership has come to an end. Sold via Wizzle for 34850.

Main reason for selling is that I have acquired my Mum’s car and have decided to cash in for a slight profit.

Totally stock car except for the 1300 spent on the 18 inch Pretoria’s. Still think it looks great and am sure the next owner will be very happy with it.

Not leaving the VW fold by any means, have a R on order :smiley:

Is that your actual car on the link Fuster?  Another £4k built into the price somewhere but I suppose dealers have to try something.

I'll be interested, if another forum member buys it, to know what they pay.

Correct, my old car.  I think they have to pay wizzle a finders fee of 350. So the cost to Marshall is £35200.

That fees like a good price, how did you find the Wizzle process?

Did you get a price from WBAC car, would be interested to hear the price difference.

Uploaded the advert on a Monday night, it sold the day after.

There is an option where the seller puts down their desired selling price. I think it was initially set to something low like 33k  Updated it it to 34850 (In hindsight I should gone above 35k). The price was accepted by a dealer the day after. 

Collection and payment was a pain though. Took 2 hours for the money to get to me after a lot of chasing.
