Whats it worth?

[w5pwr]

Considering changing my car after 14 months of enjoyment....

Its a May 2009 GT S with 11,500 miles, I have just put two years extended warranty and two new rear tyres, in very good condition, what do you think its worth trade/private?

Depends on exact spec but I would say early to mid 60s. The low mileage and the warranty make it attractive. I'm sure more experienced minds will be along shortly to offer good opinions.

It's worth £25 and a bag of cheesy wotsits. Please let me know how you want paying and I'll sort it. Collect Saturday?

Spec looks good. Pretty much the same as mine but 5 months newer, 8k miles less and with 12 months more warranty. From a dealer I paid high 50s with a strong trade-in on my old car, if that helps. And no cheesy snacks involved in the deal at all. Give Dicky Grace or Nareman (Nuvola London) a shout for a professional opinion.

£50/52k trade (extended warranty worth nothing if you sell in the network, be careful with the paperwork if you sell to an independent retailer) and £54/56k private (warranty transfers) IMHO. Great looking car, colour, miles etc.

There are a couple of similar ones on AutoTrader, both trade, selling for around 60 / 62k, so early 50s to sell to a dealer sounds about right. Interesting that the warranty cannot be transferred via an indie dealer. so effectively any residual extended warranty is of no value; do I understand that correctly? Any idea how much cost dealers normally assume they will carry to cover final prep, warranty etc?

You're right, it does look good. Would have taken a close look if I hadn't alrady bought mine!

I understand that the Maserati warranty transfers between owners unless the car goes to a Maserati dealer. If someone with an extended warranty could look at the paperwork then we might understand better how I works selling to another dealer.

Speak to Dicky Grace as I'm sure he will give you good advice......

Good choice! Remember they sell best February through June like all halo cars.
