Sell or Store

Post by travelbug63 » Sat Oct 08, 2022 5:04 pm

I've come to the conclusion that I just don't make the most of my Atom 4 so plan to sell it.

What are peoples views on when to sell, try now as we enter Autumn or put it away and wait for Spring ? I don't need the money and doubt it's going to depreciate (probably the opposite).

Appreciate what you think

Advertise for sale
Store and use as you want
Then wait and see what happens

I have bought and sold a lót of lightweights and or specials, march/april, when the sun comes back definitely is the best time for selling summer cars.

Now could work due to bad availability, but spring works best, also pricewise.

If you have a big spec, you’ll sell it either way

Thanks Ian and speedmachine, useful thoughts.

I think the answer is to advertise now, if it doesn't sell then wait till Spring. And yes it is relatively good spec.

I'll put some details together and mention here first I think.

Advertise 2 months, when not sold maybe take it off the market and try again later.

Good call Speedwell, thanks.

I bloody know what will happen, I'll get it out to take some photo's, go for a quick drive and change my mind.

I must be strong, I must be strong !
