Bad time of year to sell and prices are dropping as insurance is putting people off. Do you really need to sell it now or can you wait? 2012 TDV8 Vogue (L322) |

If I remember right there was an L405 on AT from £14.5. Nearer 3 times the mileage and a bit tatty, but those prices aren’t helping……

I can wait for sure, she is just wrapped up with the ctec charger looking after it. It’s a 4.4 v8 by the way. |

I noticed a few early (2013) L405s creeping under £15k including one or two 4.4s. Getting very tempting. A low mileage L322 is a rare beast though. Should get strong money. 2016 Skoda Octavia VRS Estate

As others have said, if you're in no hurry to sell then you have nothing to lose by putting it up at around £20,000 and waiting. They do sell at that sort of value to people who prefer the L322 to later models and want a really mint example.

Agreed Shaun. The L322 is more classic and dare I say, more desirable than an early L405. I’m looking for one too, specifically an early 4.4 petrol V8. Sold one a few years ago and kicking myself now! |

Some good points, I can’t help thinking that a low mileage top condition vehicle like yours will become a collectible item rather than a vehicle for regular use so keep it wrapped up safe and warm for a discerning buyer like Shaun who’ll appreciate it. |

I would suggest that the mileage and low ownership will make it appealing. ULEZ and rising insurance may put some off but there is definitely a market for a clean L322 as they are becoming rare. Last January I bought a late November 2012 Westminster with 53k miles and 3 owners. Mine was well cared for with lots of receipts.

Agree with all of the above.

Yeah, funny how when your buying it's always "the best combination, rare to have that specific trim, never going to see one like this ever again and at that price I'm giving it away".

As others have said, it depends how motivated you are to sell, and if people really prioritise having a low mileage one. Low teens would probably attract interest but you can find decent enough looking 4.4 TDV8 L322s with less than 100k for less than 10k now. 2011 4.4 TDV8 Vogue |
