Repair or sell

Recommended Posts

Hi

I bought a car into trader that has a body damage (cost circa £1200 to fix)

It was a mistake to buy this but now I want to get some opinion or advice on whether:

-fix it and sell it for the market value (it will have profit but takes time and incur more financial risk)

-sell it with a much lower price (is it attractive to the customers to buy a car with a body damage but much cheaper?)

-sell it with trade price and get rid of it?

The car does not have any mechanical issues, it has a long mot and was recently serviced

You do a chart for each and every bail out

Then work out the least grief option 

Then keep to this plan

And learn

Then do the same again tomorrow :D

10 hours ago, It's me said:

thank you for your advice. my main question was that based on an experience of an establish car dealer it is better to fix and increase the price in similar cases or reduce the price?

Are people in general concerned more about the body of the car or the price they pay?

Is the damage recorded?

Facebook marketplace seems awash with ‘copart flips’ in various states of repair these days.
