Merlot Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Nice car mate but I think you've got a typo on the first digit of the price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a3malawimatt Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 No offence Merlot but are you going to jump on every for sale ad telling the op that there car is over priced. Its hard enough as it is out there with out your input. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon3000 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 £6500 - that would be a steal! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drinks Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I think I agree with Merlot, great looking car and I wish you well with the sale but I think any bids you get are going to be starting with a 2... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon3000 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Genuine offers are always invited Without exageration this car is 'out of the box' with absolutely no marks etc and very well looked after. I know on paper that does'nt encourage a high price but these B7's Cabs (S4's) are quite thin on the ground. I'm fortunate that I dont need to sell it. That said if I had a very strong and sensible offer of course I would let her go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nordberg Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I must have missed the bit in the original post that said "Please, even if you're interested or not, let me have your opinion on my asking price." Wasn't there a forum etiquette posting somewhere about crashing other people's threads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon3000 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Thanks Nordberg, I was thinking the same but too polite to say. If it's not for you then why comment, If I thought a house was overpriced I would look at another or make an offer if it was of interest to me. If I showed people round my house and someone was in my garden telling viewers its way overpriced I'd not be happy. It's easy to write on a forum but please remember I posted this as I have a genuine item to sell. If its of interest then please call me and we can discuss price, I would always want a deal when buying a car/house etc so I expect people to do that to me - and I'm open to sensible offers as posted earlier.

Drinks Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Sorry for stepping on toes. You are right of course, it's not my or anyone else's right to question how you market your car (or anything else for that matter). In fact if/when you get any interest, to you. It's up to the buyer to know what is/isn't a good price. We've managed to increase the number of people who have seen the advert though!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlot Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 No offence Merlot but are you going to jump on every for sale ad telling the op that there car is over priced. Its hard enough as it is out there with out your input.Matt Well I know a lot about S4's as I have had at least one continuously for the last ten years, having had three Avants and one Cabriolet. I genuinely felt that the price should begin with a 2 as it books at £27k in the trade and straight sale bids will be around £25k which puts it at £28/29k retail and £26.5/27k private. On top of that it is getting a bit late in the year to sell a Cab for top price and the V8 will put punters off. At the right price S4's are brilliant but they are a pain to sell. As I have said before, I still own one so have no interest in talking prices down but this car is £10k over priced, simple as that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Merlot Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I think you will find that TSN is a forum full of enthusiasts who will know how to price check anything before they buy. You are quite right that B7 S4 Cabs are very thin on the ground and you might get lucky. I wish you well but putting something up for such a huge amount over is not going to go without comment on a forum such as this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizze Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I think the replies to this thread should be deleted, the guy is trying to sell his car in a market that is hard, anyone searching for info on the S4 cab on google gets brought to the tyresmoke classifieds section as the second hit, albeit it is Martins S4 avant. This is really going to hurt his chances. What I have found though is always market your car at the lowest you would seriously take if you genuinely want to sell it, a lot of genuine buyers will not want to haggle and you miss out on all of them. I used to put mine up for a few grand more than I would take and it would go after a few weeks, maybe a month. Then started pricing them at rock bottom price and got loads of calls and they all sold in days. Still knocked £500 off, but a buyer knows if it is a good price or not, having to knock a few £k off is just a chore, and is something many can't be bothered with.

Scotty Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 As an alternative point of view, aren't we a forum that imparts information and looks out for each others interests? It wouldn't be good for one of our own to pay £10k over the odds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon3000 Posted July 4, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 (edited) To be fair as mentioned earlier I'm not too bothered about selling her..I usually sell my cars once a year to avoid depreciation and this is the first car I've had in years that I cannot think of a replacement for. If someone wants her then great, if not fine. If I then feel the need to sell or drop the price I will over time but right now I'm thinking if I got a good price great, if not its no great shakes. Scotty - I have already mentioned I would take an offer and yes - someone could buy an S4 for 28k then get wheels reconned, bumper sprayed, 30k on the clock, thrashed etc etc or they could buy mine - knock me a couple of grand and love her as much as I do.
