Do you want to sell your car Sir
« on: 25 July 2007, 08:32 »
Had an email from my supplying dealer yesterday, offering me £22K for the R32, I'm so tempted.

What do you Guy's think

The car was bought new march this year, and cost me £23.350

Assuming you mean £22k... I would say that is 4 months of motoring for £1350.... that is pretty low depreciation!
Mk 5 GTi, Tornado Red, Leather, Xenons, 18" Monza II's, Sunroof, 6CD in Armrest, Winter pack & Tinted Windows... soon to be adding ED30 front spoiler, plus R32 sideskirts... then getting fully colour coded!
New engine fitted when car was at 27k... last one went "noisey".

sounds like a very fair deal - they must have a buyer ready so you could try for another £250/500.

But do you want to sell & what would you replace it with?

I'm holding out for £22K, I fancy a BMW 325 Coupe, test drive booked for this Saturday  :smiley:

Be a sad world if we were all the same, and i've been fortunate to own both brands,and still drive a BMW for work, so consider a good position to judge. :smiley:

Nowt wrong with BMW's... I guess the brand is suffering from it becoming a more mainstream type of car, but so is VW... thats what it is all about.  I mean there are plenty of Golfs on the road now, the GTi is rarer and so therefore has a better cachet, but the new BMW 3 series coupes are hardly common!!

Is that the same dealer you bought it from? That is a crazy high price, snap it up if you want out - where is the margin for them?! The potential buyer may as well just buy a new one! :grin:
