Guys, firstly sorry I haven't been as active a poster as I used too, been so busy recently and really missing reading through all the topics!
But as some (maybe most...?!) of you may know already, my MC is up for sale. I've had quite a few phone calls but although they are nice people, they just seem to want to chat about cars generally and never follow up with a viewing!
However, I've also had 3 pretty firm offers of £13k, some 'firmer' than others. But all have said they won't spend a penny more. I've said thanks, but no thanks as I'm holding out for more. I've dropped the price from £13,750 to £13,495 and was really hoping/expecting to achieve as close to that as possible.
I suppose I'm in no great rush to sell but every week it's another £23 on Temp Ins and the tax is ticking away. The car obviously has it's positives, and negatives, but what do people think?
I'm aware there were a few recently that sold/were advertised for just under the £13k but who knows how much service was left, condition etc. I'm resisting driving mine too much as I don't want to put miles on and take service indicator down, but it's hard knowing she's there in the garage! But she has to go, needs must so keeping is unfortunately not an option.
So, sell for £13k and let the first person who arrives have it for that or hold out and hope to achieve closer to £13.5k...?
I was, maybe still am hoping to come to the meet tomorrow in Knowle which would be nice because any potential interested parties could see the car. But it's then another 150 odd miles on the car and I'll be knackered for work at 3pm!
