The value of your used car has been seriously affected by the price of dealers/traders used cars for sale.
The dealers/traders used cars are now priced at an all time low, there is therefore no deal to be had on the price of the car that you are interested in buying, the great deal is presented right there in front of you, it is the screen price.
Believe me my prices are so keen at the moment that I cannot deviate from those advertised.
You the customer must now come to the table with your car at a realistic price as ours are rock bottom, therefore we bought at a low price and are selling at a very small margin.
The current crisis has not made your car worth more and my car worth less, it has just brought the difference to change figure down considerably!
That is then the figure that you should now be focusing on, exactly how much you have to draw out of your bank to make up the difference between what your current used car is worth.
Forget what you wanted for your car, the figure that you would have liked previously and that which it is now worth are worlds apart, all you are doing when you adopt this thoroughly unrealistic manner is causing a massive Void that cannot be bridged!
People have brought the following cars in for part exchange, 1) bmw wanted £4500 for a car that is worth £2200, 2) a scenic wanted £1,000 worth £300, 3) peugeot wanted £1750, worth £1000, 4) focus wanted £1900 worth £1050, 5) galaxy wanted £2200 worth £1100 6) laguna wanted £1000 worth £350.
This kind of money will not even be made selling privately let alone as a part exchange, my only route to get money back on these cars is via the auction, the last time I went to sell three of mine the cars outnumbered the bidders by about four to one, I sold one of mine and took a loss.
Sorry to get out of my tree on this subject but half of my December has been wasted by peoples wildy over inflated view on their cars worth.
To the people that do agree on a price I always give them a week or so to try to sell their car privately, the part exchange is never a deal breaker for me; it is a service that I offer to help the transaction run smoothly, look on it as a fall back price should you be unsuccessful in moving it on yourself.
My Thanks to the 19 people that did buy cars from me in December including the two that came in today, Laura and Ian from Henley and Pauline and George from Stratford upon Avon, hope you all got home safely, see you on the 31st.
In Summary, there has never been a better time to find and secure your next dream car, there are superb deals to be had, I offer a brilliant package of benefits and aftercare so please give me a call.
Thanks again for indulging my rambling brain.
It really helps to get it off your chest!
