What should I be asking?

Post by eddiecool12 » Tue Apr 08, 2008 12:20 pm

I am currently trying to sell my Mk 1 Elise, it is titanium grey, with red leather and has 55k on the clock. It is in very good condition, full dealer and specialist service history. New set of Rear Advan Yokohamas on it, brakes replaced less than a year ago, and several other bits of maintenance through its like.

Does anyone have any thoughts, I have had one or two offers and trying to understand what is a good price for this?

Thanks,
Ed

If it were my car I would put it on at £8500 with a view to taking £8k.

Maybe nearer the £8.5k if its had recent cambelt and new suspension.

Where have you got it advertised so far? PH has always been good for me.

I have been using PH and Ebay so far. I have put it up initially at £8,850 and have had offers just over the £8k region, but unsure whether to keep pushing for more, or whether to go with one of them.

I think anything over 8 grand is probably good going (for the seller) for one that age and mileage at the moment ;)

That's not to say that you may get a local despardo who really wants an elise but doesn't want to travel and is therefore willing to pay a premium.
