Do our cars not sell well on this site?

A lot of members on here are good at pushing the price of clio's in general down as opposed to other owners clubs where you would expect to see cars valued at higher prices than AT etc...

This.

Always try AT and PH before listing here, people on this forum always want to pay bottom dollar

I've never know a forum like it tbh, CS is the only place where members seem to proactively force second hand values down with negative comments and estimated values.

I do think this forum talks down the price of RS's tbh, especially ph2's....

I've had my car for sale on here quiet a while now and have had no one interested in buying it off this website

Mine was on here a while and in the end I let it go for probably £500 less than it was worth. Try advertising it on AT or PH's mate?

I agree with the price reduction comments. I looked at one thread recently where there are in the region of 5 price reductions, all saying he wont go any lower. I am holding out until he says he is willing to give me money to buy his car lol

I am looking because in about 4 months I intend to be buying a 172, looking for something in the region of £2500 to £3000 in Monaco, Inferno, or Silver.

Just realised its actually Flame Red I am interested in, not Inferno

If its not cheaper than free then prepare to wait

 

[Austin-182]

Does anyone ever PM people on here asking if they want to sell? A while ago i did have someone asking me if i would sell my 182
I didnt have a clue about this forum when i bought my car, i found mine through AT

Yeah I've stuck it on PH now probably put it on AT by the weekend

As mentioned, when buying i only ever buy standard, or say with coilovers, but with the standard stuff included. When modding you massively narrow the potential buyers market imo. I'd overlook most on here, I don't want somebody elses modifications

i bought mine through another forum quite cheap knowing it needed the belt kits doing and a couple of other minor things. tbh i wish i hadnt bothered with it and i would have gone through auto trader like i did with my past 2 cars.

not to worry, i have it now and its cost me a bit to fix up but now its pretty much mint so happy days

I dont know about that, remember that they are pretty much worthless to the general motoring world.
No matter how many modz someone may throw at them ,they are, when all's said and done, a cheap french hatchback.
Entheusiasts seem to think that because their car is worth X to them, it must be worth the same to the rest of the world.
And that is why they fail

I take your point mate but when you look at the prices 172's and some 182's are going for, it's getting close to low ish milage saxo's etc. Mk4 Golfs go for more than 182's and I know which I would call a "better" car, albeit a less well put together one lol

Car's do sell on here, I spent this afternoon removing a lot of ad's from the FS section, all of which had sold.
