A new so called car trader that has just started up selling high milage cars has a 2001 civic type r with 141k for £2250. he offered it to me for my rb 182 plus £250. i feel like setting his eyes on fire

Rule number 1.

To sell cars cheap, you must buy cars cheap.

If he gave you top dollar for your car and still tried to sell it cheap, he would go bankrupt within a month.

 

[Gouldy]

It has to be worth the dealer bothering with, hence his low offer.

 

[crombie1]

he said he would be selling it on for £2250 so he was only doing a favour lol

 

[pastieman]

I would of said £500 on top of your clio... Need to make a profit

This what is so annoying, I get someone who wants to part ex in a car, I give them a price and they say ' oh it's worth more than that' - OF COURSE ITS f**king WORTH MORE THAN THAT, how am I supposed to make a living if I buy cars at retail price?!?

Although saying he was doing you a favour makes him sound like a bit of a prat lol, more of you would have been doing him one

 

[crombie1]

of course he has to make money. it would be a bit different if i went to him for a px but he contacted me. im not selling my 182 and dont want a type r,

 

[Russ_16v]

Oh he cantacted you? OK thats a proper piss take lol

 

[Struggler]

as much as i agree that he has to try and make a living,

but offering effectively 2k for a RB182 as a "favour" is a bit too far! lol

 

[crombie1]

ye through our local car forum as my avatar is my old type r

 

[MarkCup]

LOL

Do people even bother with worrying about the trade in value? It's the cost to change that counts.

 

[R-Sport.]

So he probably paid 1.5k for the honda, & trying to px at retail then retail yours at 3k..

Ironically i did that with daniels 200-

he bought a local impreza type r that was for sale. it was up for 3k as it needed a heater matrix on gumtree for 2 months and didnt sell, so he got it and now has it up for 4k and says its has a cool running thermostat so the heaters dont get hot lol wtf
