Uneripty Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I have recently listed my C63 on Autotrader. The vehicle requires servicing and some minor repairs, so I have priced it appropriately. Should I get my vehicle serviced at my Mercedes Specialists, incurring a potential £1500 expense, and subsequently request a higher price, or should I sell it as is for a slightly reduced amount compared to the quoted price?

Lemmand Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I recently sold an AMG that need servicing. My curiosity has increased following the completion of the program. It was effortless for me since it was included in a service plan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uneripty Posted June 9 Author Share Posted June 9 I attempted that with my friend; it functioned when I first purchased the vehicle, but unfortunately, I am currently unable to release it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerDrummer Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 If I were purchasing, I would prefer to observe the service being performed. It is merely a minor service along with a brake fluid replacement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmand Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Consider attempting this alternative; it offers a more comprehensive solution and may prove effective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mezuzzi Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 Generally, if the vehicle requires servicing and you intend to trade it to a dealer, it is not advisable to incur the expense of servicing. If you are pursuing a private sale, the opposite applies. Unusual defects will deter private buyers, who are likely to assume that repairs have not been undertaken due to their high cost. Dealers may exhibit varying levels of worry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lemmand Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 The dealer offered to reduce the value of my car by £1200 if I did not plan to have a B service performed. I chose to utilise my service plan, which ultimately cost approximately £850. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mezuzzi Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 There is invariably an exception. I presume they were not a franchised dealer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lemmand Posted June 9 Share Posted June 9 I apologise for my error; I believe your feedback pertained to a Main Dealer. My vehicle was taken to an independent dealership. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
