I'm dealer offered at 42.75K (and happy with that as a first offer but you never take the first offer to start) at present for a late May sale; Gachoud can look into what ever he wants but he has yet to buy; so let us know when you have purchased at 39K and please let us know what quality you get. RRS TDV8 Java/Ebony, Privacy

£42,750 dealer bid on your TDV8....right.....I'm sure we all believe that !!.....

I am with Gachoud on this one...main dealers are offering between 3K and 5K under list for RRS trade in up here...TDV8's some how have been just holding their head above the 40K mark as a starting price on the autotrader for months now. The ones that fall under it or are just above it seem to get snaffled up quickly...those 2,3 and 4K above for the same car dont appear to be shifting.

If I am right in thinking Autobrokers had a 07 tdv8 which overfinch had performed an engine mod to, lowish miles with privacy and sides for 41K which a member on here bought recently and I was looking at

The price of many will soon be under 40K given the current financial troubles, depreciation etc and when they are I am going to be picking up a nice Stornaway with black interior and factory privacy and taking it to either Overfinch or Hawke for a bit of a tweek....probably Hawke I like the HST look and its cheaper....love the Supersports and Tigers though...may well have to combine Overfinch alloys with HST body.

Roll on the sub 40K TDV8...i am waiting!

Good luck with your sale though PLidds and apollogies for the hijack of your thread

Gachoud, it bitters me to admit but you are right. My broker phoned today and apologiesed for mis-quoting me. He had mixed my price up with a Jag XK 4.2 and I'm looking at a price of 41.25K which I have gone for as i need to collect my new one early next week. So car has now sold.

ummm interesting how a your car is advertised for sale on ebay at £40,500, the seller's username is a certain plidds...expires at 10.09pm on the 20th May...

I noticed it yesterday gachoud up at 41K I think if memory serves I assumed it was on a long listing which wasnt removed when car was sold through his broker.

Must be doing 24 hour listings or something reducing by small increments each time.

If you want to sell it to me for a realistic 38K plidds I will be more than willing

same spec isnt it? plus its main dealer and we all know they have a lot of fat within there prices so defo good for sub 41K. I even dare to suggest an offer of 40K cash will get you that car no probs with the safety that if its a dog you can return it! Actually isnt that your car? Doubt you got 41.25 given what they are selling it for!!!! Is it on sale or return?

Its a lovely example (be it without side steps) and if i was you I would want top dollar for it aswell.

Thereis 7 examples of TDV8's on autotrader now for sub 40K starting price...on the flip side though there is also a lot which are up at a much higher price (obviously no rush to sell)...unfortunately for owners the values are beginning to take a nose dive which is good for likes of me who intend on buying and keeping for the long long long term.

Yep, the E-Bay car was mine. Been a nightmare trying to shift this car with a number of dealers bidding but pulling out at last minute. Had to move it as I was collecting new car last week. I sat on my laurels a little with a long standing bid of 42.75K up until a few weeks ago when the whole RRS second hand world went mad. This was then reduced to 41.25K via another dealer who again pulled out with days to go. I eventually sold my car 2 hours prior to colllecting my new one through a dealer who had a buyer lined up for a black/black one - pure luck. Had to take 39.5K in the end but had some riduculous offers over the week as low as £35K from main dealers. Really glad I cancelled my new order and switched to something else although I'll miss my TDV8 massively. RRS TDV8 Java/Ebony, Privacy

Glad its sold plidds and hope the Jag XF? is erasing all the bad selling memories of the TDV8?

35K is taking the ...39.5K is good and it sold in time which is main thing.
