Despite being a lovely example, I think your biggest challenge is the many other Masers Nuvola has for sale.

Tend to agree. Advertising 15 GT's? Sure they are all beautifully prepared but wonder if that number attracts or put off prospective buyers?

To be fair, its priced well now with that mileage and Naremans Platinum Warranty.

Why would it put off buyers? Put off from buying from him or buying mine? He has very good reputation and mine is currently cheapest Gts he has for sale so if someone is looking for Gt and can stretch just a little bit he can get Gts instead.

Brilliant just send over the readies and one of us will deliver it later today to Inverness, is that the one in Scotland?

If it is then meet you at Tesco Inshes near the big Police Station?

Sytners inspections are a bit circumspect! At that price it will need the brakes +\- clutch.

I suspect that most of the cars at circa 30k miles will need a clutch very soon, probably why most MC shifts seem to be in the bracket with that mileage.

Not from decent dealers- they will have already replaced them.
My experience with sytner when first looking for an Mc shift was - great price! Then on inspection - 10k work needed. Then bartering for a couple of weeks before I pulled out.

Have no expierience of them, however the amount of dealers advertising an MC Shift with clutch replaced at circa 30k miles is pretty close to zero last time I looked. If any. Would surely be in top line!!!

just curious - would my car appeal better for £36k privately then £40k at Nuvola? what do you all recon? Considering taking it back and perhaps selling it privately again with a discount. Overall not really impressed with how its been so far - really thought it would have sold by now. Puts me off from owning expensive car a little bit...

Feel for you. Not sure what the problem is, black on black, old but low miles, market taking a hit, people wanting the GTS and not the auto? For example I am not sure how it would price versus mine - two years newer but 25k more miles, blu/tan. has your's got the comfort pack?

Saw a black GTS in the New Town on Saturday...sounded great.

At these levels it will be a cheap car to run for the next few years and even if you did put quite a few miles on it it would still be less than mine.

Finally have you considered WBAC and be done? Their values are all over the place but are not universally low as many think.

WBAC has given me a valuation of £31, ee no thanks.... not as bad but still nowhere near market value I would think.
I think issue is that market has gone significantly down - 2 years ago when I was looking for mine prices were in mid, high forties, now its mid to high thirties..... so I think thats the issue... Would love to be buying GTS just now as for mid 30k you can get a lot for your money and its hard to imagine GTS (4.7's) dropping to below 30k ever so to me it feels like they're almost hitting bottom....

mine has comfort pack, front parking sensor, big paddles so all the absolute minimum options one should have/

....need to find somewhere to keep it and use it in the summer then! I have been thinking of moving mine on but know it will drop very modestly from here for the next few years. WBAC valued mine at £36k recently FWIW - their system is more sympathetic to age rather than miles.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, the market has dropped sharply in the last 12 months which I found out when selling my GTS last year but I think it is now leveling off.
Have you tried calling around a few other specialist indies to see if they need stock and want to buy yours? I personally think that a private sale will be even more difficult as most people want a warranty or finance or ideally, both
Good luck

Shame it has a black interior and not a lighter colour as I might have been interested to offload the QP in favour of this one.

It's bad luck and we feel for you. It can leave a bad taste with an experience like
This. Surely nareman has an idea of what people are looking
For at the Moment. Have you spoken to RG?
