the dealer prob paid asking imo. you are very neg on prices ! car wanted for nothing£3k to make and if the buyer wants finance then money to be made there.ORIGINAL: daro911Was for sale at £36k now £38900 so dealer must have paid maximum of £33-33.5k![&o]ORIGINAL: jdpef356 New to the Market - well yes and no - now we know where it went![] http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201506094172595/sort/default/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/make/porsche/maximum-mileage/up_to_70000_miles/usedcars/postcode/cb249eu/saved-search-id/2c929a0547f89c120147fc357ee40016/keywords/spyder/page/1/channel/cars/model/boxster/maximum-age/up_to_4_years_old?logcode=p
how come ? I sell my cars for more than 3rd party dealers sell them for ! why do people talk down private sale prices ? I have always sold private at top end.ORIGINAL: clubsport The Manual red Spyder still looks cheap, considering dealer facilities vs private sale.
I'm no expert but would a dealer sink £36K into a car to put a £2.9K margin on the sticker price, from which he then has no wriggle room to make any profit worth getting out of bed for? If someone offers just £500 under the sticker price he's down to £2.4K. I've never been a car dealer so don't know how slim their margins are but I can see the logic in daro's estimate. £5K sounds more like a dealer's buffer.ORIGINAL: MrDemonthe dealer prob paid asking imo. you are very neg on prices ! car wanted for nothing£3k to make and if the buyer wants finance then money to be made there.ORIGINAL: daro911Was for sale at £36k now £38900 so dealer must have paid maximum of £33-33.5k![&o]ORIGINAL: jdpef356 New to the Market - well yes and no - now we know where it went![] http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201506094172595/sort/default/onesearchad/used%2Cnearlynew%2Cnew/make/porsche/maximum-mileage/up_to_70000_miles/usedcars/postcode/cb249eu/saved-search-id/2c929a0547f89c120147fc357ee40016/keywords/spyder/page/1/channel/cars/model/boxster/maximum-age/up_to_4_years_old?logcode=p

Where do you get he is going to make £3k! We don't know what he paid for it and assuming it was the full asking price (doubtful) then he has to fund it whilst waiting for that buyer who hopefully wants a loan to turn up with their deposit. As the world and his mother knows what the car was up for and the dealer has owned it 5 minutes if anyone really wanted it and had to pay £37k giving him a minimum return of £1k then they should have put that deal to bed the second it popped back up for sale[8D]ORIGINAL: MrDemon I wish I earnt enough money to think £3k was not worth getting out of bed for.
