Cuprabob Posted March 14, 2008 Report Share Posted March 14, 2008 Sometimes you have to prioritise and unfortunately do what ou need to do. To be honest you couldn't really sell at a worse time, everyone has got the high road tax issue on their mind although in reality it really is a small premium to pay for such a car as normal family cars will be paying between £200-£300, but all the focus is on "gas guzzlers" In addition, people in general are worried about money, people without it can' get cheap loans and people with it are keeping it just in case the poo hits the fan. What you have it advertised at is fair IMO compared to the price you paid for it but I thing you'll probably need to be ready to negotiate a fair bit.

I think a lot of R's will be going up for sale once people start realising the implications of the road tax rise in the budget. And the congestion charge for London due in the autumn.

Henry52 Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Just letting off steam GTI Jon, but there is something we could all do, SELL. Personally, I will do what most R owners will do, moan and whinge for a while, pay the money and enjoy my R especially as it's the silver one and everyone knows they are the fastest.
