As the subject suggests, we are looking to turn over our 2010 BT50 which has been customised to suit our needs. When we traded our Courier [which had a customised drawer & fridge slide in it] the dealer suggested that it should be removed as we would get nothing for it... That said some weeks after it we sold, the new owner actually approached me to see if I still had them, he subsequently bought them, so maybe the dealers don't know everything!
While it has all the "normal" mods - Bull Bar, winch, driving lights, Aux. battery, long range fuel tank, suspension upgrade etc etc, we have also added a custom canopy that includes a stack of 12v lighting & plugs [ciggie, hella & Anderson] a 60L ARB fridge on a platinum drop slide, drawer, tie down rails & pull out drop shelf, compressor rear view cameras.
While the canopy has a WOW factor [I have lost count of how many people want to check it out] I feel that the canopy MAY be a negative when trying to get the best price possible if trading it in but this is the easiest way to get a deal done. The other option is to try & sell it privately which may take longer but get us a better return for the money we have spent on it.
So, what experiences have you Swaggers had?
Thanks in advance
