Hi,

As the title suggests really, does it have much effect on the resale or not?

Anybody have any opinions on where's best to advertise after PH?


Cheers Lee

I would start advertising in late March, early April.

Spring appears to get people in the mood for sports cars.

Depends how keen you are to seel/how much you want for it. Bargain hunters come out in the winter months! Plus, in the spring/summer, there's more competition.

A serious buyer is looking 12 months of the year, sun comes out and so do the dreamers. If it's a goodun with the right price it will sell whatever the month.

I agree with crankedup. You will get nothing but tyre kickers at Easter Weekend. I'm in the middle of buying a Griff and have been keeping constent eye out for the right one for the last 6 months.

Hi Lee, I heard you come past my works the other day, (Wolverhampton Rd), dualling with a mini (bully )

A better name for this thread may have been "what month did you buy your tvr"

I'll get the ball rolling, late september.

Good luck
Russell.

edited to add, watched the prices in autotrader for 3 months prior to buying it, didn't seem to vary much.

Hi Russel,

How's the Cerb? Been into Mike's much? Thankfully since he changed all the injectors and lots of other things mine has been faultless.

Where abouts on the Wolverhampton Rd are you?

Cheers
