I have been involved in the sale of 4 rs500"s in the last 2 weeks

Prices from 17k to 32k

Im very pleased to say that prices for 500"s arnt being effected by the " credit crunch " like everything else , infact the demand seems to be growing all the time

Not one of these cars was sold through an advert either , all sold by people asking me to find them cars and me knowing who has what for sale , this just shows the demand for them as cars are changing hands without advertising them

This is a good thing for people who own 500"s but sadly not good if your looking to buy , unless you have deep pockets
