I think he's probably put the reserve at £4000. Some people like round numbers. There's a 20 reg on Autotrader at £3950. Another private sale but a different screen and no heated grips but it has got hand guards. If you're local and want the one with the bigger screen, I reckon £4k would get it. Similar dealer models are £4700 or so. You pay a premium, but then it's safer to hand over £4k+ to a dealer, you may get some warranty and can take it back if it's something major. Also you may haggle a discount but I've never managed one..
Last year I bid on a vespa on Ebay that didn't make reserve. I went and put a deposit on a new one. 2 days later the seller offered to sell at my bid.. Just my luck!

Yep, I'd agree with you Liam, on the £4000 mark; not much more than that.

None of the above.
I'd pay around £5,500 for a new 350.

:D Well, there is that far shinier option abitmad. £1500 extra, for brand new, updated power, peace of mind and no MOT for 3 yrs etc, plus that blue livery. Me? I'd buy an SH350! ;)

Especially if you do it on finance - £79 a month over 3 years on PCP. Even if you have the cash, I'd still go for that and after the deposit is paid put the rest of the money in a separate account and let it accrue some interest. When you get to the end, you have the choice to pay the bubble (which has been sitting ready) or hand back the scoot and keep the dosh.

That too would be my option,i think a few 300 forza owners will be doing that,so the market may be flooded with nearly new secondhand 300 models,although the supply of the new 350 models seems to be the stumbling block at the moment…

I don't think there are that many new ones about. Not near me anyway. I made a general enquiry a few weeks ago at Vertu Nottingham then Via Moto at Sheffield. Nothing doing. I'd like to have a sit on one. £1500 is a big jump on £4k but the electric screen is a big plus.
