All I can say is WOW!!!  Just goes to show what you can get if you ask.  Not sure all dealers will be so accomodating as there are still lots of cars sitting at above £22k, but you never know!  Just wish there were more dealerships in my area so I could chance my arm!

He will be doing well if he gets 13k to 14k for that - given you can pick up 08 models for circa 16k to 18k now. People need to be realistic about the R32 2nd hand prices, as hard as it may be to take for those who have lost lots on their R. That guy is way off.  Its a buyers market for sure.

Simple thing is now - have an R - keep it for ages! Dont have one - get one for a cracker deal if you can  :smiley:

tbh its good news that the used market isn't bending over and taking it, it'll keep the values up for everyone.
