How hard is it to sell a Skoda?

[240z]

Seems like a good selling price but you'd might have a better chance if you add some photos and sell with a rwc, whenever I'm looking for a car I'm always put off if the seller isn't including a rwc.

Good to hear mate.
You'll b back just in time to place ur order on the new mk3 vRS

I loved that vRS but it will be a toss up between that or a Scout. We like to go camping a lot, and while the vRS would happily tow the trailer and pull away from most other cars there is one spot I go to where I can easily bottom out if I'm not careful. Although now that the FBT concessions for cars are gone, I'll have to think some more about the best way to make it work.

Carsales was definitely the pick, and most of the enquiries came from there. I also advertised on Tradingpost and Allclassifieds, as well as a run in the paper. I think next time I will save my money and go for Carsales first to test the market.

I do think the Skoda is the sort of car that someone wants to buy (like us!). Most people who just want a medium sized family car are unlikely to hit the ad initially. In the end, it went to someone whose father had just bought a new one, they had driven in it and loved so the father helped them to look for a second-hand one.

The only other things I will think about next time is optioning up a bit more (people wanted bluetooth) and also buying the extended warranty (another question everyone kept asking). The small investment upfront would probably work out in terms of final second hand price.

So far most ppl here seem to do ok. I'm wondering whether the manuals might end up being sought after...
