Not a problem with the Lexus Sid - I'm just not using it enough (1900 miles since Sep) - keep jumping in the Mitsy because it is so practical - figured I'd try to recoup some money and use it for something else but struggling with the price drop Big Cry

WBAC offered £19k for it 6 month old - £40k new Censored

Dealer in London via Tootle offered me £2k more than selling dealer but still not enough - will probably wait for better weather and try private sale Confused Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

2013 Range Rover Sport SDV6 HSE Stornoway Grey

I would imagine the market for a late plate used Lexus is tiny, you see very very few on the roads - prices match demand........ also I learned the costly that selling a car in the first year is the way to financial ruin unless it is a car built in small numbers and there is huge demand for it ( I got more for a brand new TVR than I paid for it, after 9 months and 4000 miles). When RRS was launched in 2005 there was a 15 month lead in time and used prices were higher than dealer new prices, then the bubble burst in 2007 and some people lost huge amounts on cars bought for a huge premium. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

Hi SVR575,
Many Thanks!,
I have spent quite a lot of time and money getting it how I wanted it, removing bling and colour coding bits and pieces door handles, door mirrors and replacing allsorts of bits but It like swimming against the current most of the time! replace one thing something else falls off or stops working! Regards,

Danny

Not too many people realise that We Buy Any Car Are actually part of British Car Auctions. They buy as cheap as they can and then, based on market research, send the car to the auction located in the part of the country where that particular make and model will achieve the highest price.

Hi Jim,
That's very interesting and I guess a good business plan from their point of view just not so good for us! Regards,

Danny
