Diesels holding value?

Squeaks · 12-03-12, 07:46 AM

been browsing cause I am bored and found afew ZS diesels asking top wack.

The LHD one is still there forsale at over 5k

then this one
http://www4.autotrader.co.uk/classif...03ap?logcode=p

there are hatches & saloons still over 4k.

nice to see some of them holding onto value, but alas they could be forsale along time.

Personally I,ve never seen the arguement for diesels........fuels more expensive, maintainance can be horrendously expensive for the newer ones with a D.I rail and the 2 I,ve owned in the past I got worse MPG figures when caneing them ( which was always)
Not my cup of tea I,m afraid

I was looking at the Blue one last night as someone on another forum was asking about zs diesel prices, it's a nice car, well looked after and a good spec, but I don't think he'll get anywhere near his asking price.

Maybe you should put it up on ebay for the 5k... then with the profit by two more... sell one for 5k again and keep the other

nice big profit margin

Now there's a thought? Lol nah already put alot of time money and effort into her already so gradually getting her up to scratch.

that blue one on autotrader looks to be a great spec! even at 5k its still probably a lot of car for the money with loads of miles left in it

Interestingly, the Blue one has changed owner 3 times in the last year, I wonder why that might be.

It's a pity it's so far away from me, I wouldn't have minded taking a closer look.
