    I have been watching this car for the last 7 years at the same dealer.

    It was £17.995 in the beginning and in recent years it has crept up to £24.995.

    All of a sudden the dealer has added £10.000 to the price and the car is now £34.950.

    Am I missing something here, if the dealer had it for sale at £17.995 7 years ago and did not sell it what makes him think he is going to to sell it for £34.995 now in 2015.

    Mind you if this QV is worth £34.950 then my 3.2 is worth £44.000 lol.

    The tide is rising...sounds like this dealer isnt too pressed to sell and is waiting for the "right" momentum to swing his way

    Perhaps:
    The dealer likes this little gem and is pricing it always a little out of the market, so he can enjoy it every now and then?

    But because he sells cars, everything is for sale, at the right price.

    Do they need to sell it for as soon as possible? :) It's more profitable to keep it as you can see :p

    Perhaps the dealer is "keeping" her around for his own pleasure?

    I've heard from several smaller dealers here in the US, where the dealership owner will overprice a car - in order to keep it on the lot for their own use. Perhaps there is some tax value for not registering the car as a personal vehicle?

    Duly noted my end as well, been for sale ages. I also took the opinion that he doesn't want to sell it or that its his personal car that he would sell if the price is right...

    It could well be an owner consignment, with a minimum "sell" number, that is responding to today's market?

    It's a Tax Scam.

    The 348 cab at near £89.000 is mind blowing. He must want to keep them.

    I think he wants his cut off the raising market, I also know this car and he has it for sale for more than 8 years I think. A car which is standing still this long time I wouldn't buy for this kind of money. I wil need a major service, new tyres, you can buy a descent one for less than 25.000 euro's. this won is almos 41.500 euro's........
