Selling advice on my Pirelli
« on: May 16, 2013, 09:06:54 pm »
Well I have had my car 18 months (which is the longest I have ever kept a car)
And I'm having those thoughts about selling and getting something else.

A friend has a very nice TTS up for sale and I'm very tempted by it.

Now my Pirelli is very nicely modified so wondered what people think is the best way to sell.

Keep car as is and sell to an enthusiast or return to stock and sell parts on here.

Car is as follows:

58 plate 3 door Pirelli in black.
36,000 miles. Manual.
It's been owned now by 3 members off here and has been extremely well cared for.
It's got a very high standard spec.

Cruise control
Xenons
Luxury pack (folding mirrors and a few other bits)
Arm rest.

Here is a link to the car when I bought it off here.
You'll see what a stunning car it is from the pics.

Thought guys?

Yes possibly but I get bored very quickly and fancy a change.
And this TTS is far to tempting.

Think I'm going to put it up on here as it is and see what interest I get.

If its not sold after a while I'll put back to standard and get the parts up for sale on here.

It's your car
Your money
Your decision.

Not ours to be honest. You need to decided what you want to to, whether you want to sell it for a little more than stock and save the effort of having to strip things off and selling separately.

I haven't sold a modified car before so that's why i'm asking other people who may have done.

So I can get an idea which is the best way to sell. It doesn't really matter how it's sells.

I guess it would be nice to keep as is so someone can enjoy all the hard work that has gone in to it.

I'll stick it up as is in the next few weeks and see what interest I get
