Hi All,

Been a disco3 member for a few years now but sold the disco last year. However, looking to get back into things with a RRS but first time away from discos means i am unsure on what i should be paying

I have been offered a Rimini Red HSE 2.7 TD 05 plate with 50k miles on it for £22k but dont know whether this is good or bad. Also, is this colour a nightmare to sell on and should I be sticking with silver or black???

Hope you can help as looking to buy in the next 48 hours

Cheers

Pete

Sounds expensive to me - i sold my 55 plate HSE with 44K 18 months ago for £23K ish (trade in)

Does that not make the price about right, you traded in at 23k plus dealer profit they re sell at 25k. Eighteen months on at 22k resale.

What do you suggest is a fair price

Pete

I would say a tad on the high side. Sub £20k in my view. BTW red's ok - shouldn't be a problem with resale 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

Thanks for the help guys, I am scouring autotrader, ebay and Piston heads now to see if I can get one sub 20 Grand.

The 22k is giving a trade in figure on my XC90 so need to see how fair of a price that is first just in case he is offering good money on trade in against the 22k rather than dropping price

Just did an online check on the price of my old RRS using webuyanycar. Prices are holding up and maybe sub £20k is unrealistic as that web site values your requirements at £19.5k - they usually price on the low side. With that in mind 22k seems like a good price. 2005 Zambezi TDV6 - Gone but not forgotten

But mine was a younger car and lower mileage - i'd have thought that is a couple of K high but prices have been all over a bit - your best bet is to compare to the comparable averages on LR's used site as well as auotrader etc

Also my PX was a 'good' price

Speak to James at LPR

Thanks for the advice guys, who is james at LPR? and how do i contact him?

might run the car through we buy any car to see what its worth. Its not from LR but from a dealer. No warranty but i know i can buy this for 600 or so elsewhere. Cheapest on LR web site is about £24.5k for the same car.

Just put in reg and spec in WBAC.com and it came out at £19565. They are normally about £1k below trade in price and 3-4k below resale. Good idea for a bench mark though

James at Lookers Park Royal - site sponsor and a v. good name in putting together good deals with a good service - may be worth a PM to him outlining what you are looking for. If he cannot help he'll give you a good steer

I would not use we buy any car (we rip of any car owner) as a yard stick they are about as realistic as a tap dancing oyster

Theres a guy at SWMBOs work is selling a 55 plate 4.4 v8 with HORRID 22s on it and 41k miles for £24500. Mind you he's throwing in the standard LR wheels and new tyres with it at that price. Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.

4wheeldriver............... you mean 'offering' as opposed to 'selling' I'd guess? 4.4's have a novelty due to their rarity and the fact that you can have TDV6 performance with Supercharged economy!

Mustn't knock it realy, however the 4.4 was never popular in the UK.

When she forwarded the ad James I did tell her the only thing it would do was drink enough fuel to push up her companies share price!  Current, M135i in Estoril Blue with more extras than the cast of Ben Hur.
