looking to buy...

[jon_99]

Hi everyone,

I am in the market for a CSL and went to look at a 44k mile car today for £30,500. It can be found at the following site:

http://atsearch.autotrader.co.uk/www/cars_popup.js...

The reg is WU53 HJU. Does anyone have any info on this particular car?

Thanks

Seems very overpriced for the mileage bud. I'm thinking of selling mine if you are interested? Just turned 30k with a service done 500 miles ago. Still under warranty etc and the top spec. I'm looking for £33500.

Let me know if you are interested

As does yours. By about £1500 judging by the (Realistic) private prices in the classifieds on here.

You get what you pay for bud, mine is a mint untracked example, not a pepper sprayed go kart! lol.

Like I said, I'm thinking of selling and will only let it go for the right price, failing that take your chances with one off here

You get what you pay for with these cars. If I was selling mine I'd do the same as Gilford. The demand is strong and if you're not in a rush to sell, why punt it at too low a starting price. If the car is mint someone will buy it at the asking price - although you will have to field a load of calls from chancers/timewasters putting in stupid offers. A mate of mine sold his mint CSL at the end of last year for £32.5k with 23k miles and kicks himself now because he could have kept it and lost little to no money on it.

What I was saying was that the Auto Trader car is described as "Good example" so what makes you think it is in worse condition than yours?

I can fully understand anyone wanting to be sure they got what their car was worth, but dissing the price of another car with the info that you have on it is not right. If the Auto Trader car is as tidy as you say yours is then I would say it was under priced if yours is priced correctly.
