Yes, I agree with most of what you say. Especially the finance thing. Same in Lotus circles where blokes trying to sell nearly new cars are stuffed because of the finance packages offered on brand new cars.
It seems people would rather pay a much heftier screen price to get it on the drip.

I was hoping warranty wouldn't be an issue on this car as it still has a good wedge of it left with Morgan.

I'm just glad it's not a distressed sale and I don't have to give the car away to a dealer. Far rather a straight forward genuine private guy have it at similar money.......and therein lies the problem lol, trying to find one.
