Hi guys Bills 500 is now for sale in W.A no pictures as of yet http://www.carpoint.com.au/all-cars/dealer/details.aspx?R=AGC-AD-16026006&Cr=1
I am not sure of values of the more recento Mercedes models - in Reality, is that cheap, expensive or whatever? Bill would have a pretty fair idea as to the relationship between trade-in and the present asking price by the dealer. I don't expect Bill to respond to my query for obvious reasons. Regards. Styria
You do need to be committed (to an asylum probably) - unless you keep the car for a very long time. The depreciation on a new R-R Phantom is $2200 per week for the first 5 years. That's almost $600,000 gone in 5 years; and that's without even driving it.It will be a good car for someone with no faults at all and well serviced.
All I can say is that they were looking for my business and gave me a good trade in price considering the market.
The full price for the car when new was $209,000 - I paid considerably less than that as I purchased it 1 year old as a Demo - it had been driven for 11,000 km by the owner of the Mercedes Fanchise in WA - Mr Goldie.
You have to be committed to buy a new car and survive the depreciation.
Bill.
