waynehardy Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 Seriously cant belive this!! I bought my black 07 full GT with sat nav 350z March 2009 with 29,000 miles on the clock. Car ran liek a dream and was in top nick. I Paid £15,490 whihc i thought was very reasonable at the time two weeks ago i part chopped it with Nissan in Derby for a shiny new yellow 370..Ive just been on Nissans co-op website where the old 350 is now for sale. The car had done 43361 miles and had a couple of scrapes in the bodywork and scuffed alloys when i part x'd it... guess how much Nissan are now selling it for 18 months since i first bought it?? £15,999!!!! i reckon it must be because i've owned it ;-) surely that deserves the apprectiation rather than depretiation in value! heres the link if anyone wants to own a piece of automotive history http://www.co-operativemotorgroup.co.uk ... index.html Quote
Ekona Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 I'm not sure I see the problem? £16K for an '07 with full dealer warranty seems quite a good buy to me... Did you buy the car from a Nissan place? Either way, they're not charging an outrageous amount for it so why the hatred for them? They need to make a profit as much as the next company. Quote
waynehardy Posted September 9, 2010 Author Posted September 9, 2010 i dont hate Nissan! the post was made with my tongue firmly in my cheek! Quote
Wasso Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 I'm not sure I see the problem? £16K for an '07 with full dealer warranty seems quite a good buy to me... Did you buy the car from a Nissan place? Either way, they're not charging an outrageous amount for it so why the hatred for them? They need to make a profit as much as the next company. +1 £15.5k is a good price. I purchased my 56 1 year ago with 29k miles and the Satnav for £16k. So I don't think their re-sale price is that far out the water. If they have not attentioned the general external wear then maybe a little high. But if the car is as you purchased 18 months I'd say it's not a bad price - call it ball park. Quote
Chesterfield Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 Did you pay the sticker price when you bought it? If not and you got a chunk off it, who's to say that the next buyer wont get a chunk off this £15999. Quote
Tay Posted September 9, 2010 Posted September 9, 2010 I think you got an amazing deal the first time round, I paid about a grand more than what you paid originally about 6 months ago for a 56 plate GT spec with sat nav. What did give you for it just out of interest? Quote
geoff-r Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 I paid £16,900 for my '07 350, it spent most of my ownership in Nissan. So I PX'd it in against my 370, got £15,500, after 3 months of it being somewhere else, I can only assume having a new gearbox fitted it's up on their forecourt at......£17,999!!! Very overpriced in my opinion as it's a non GT (only thing missing is the electric seats and Bose system) but still. Quote
neo-ninja Posted September 10, 2010 Posted September 10, 2010 also dont forget car prices were at an all time low 18 months ago, i remember when i was looking at z4 and 350s they were 2-3k more 1 year ago then 6 months earlier. on the z4 forums people were selling thier cars they had for 6 months for more then they bought them for...
