Is it easy to sell a Cat S car?

It is not necessarily difficult to sell at category S car if it is priced appropriately and all the required repair work has been done to a sufficient standard. A large proportion of buyers will not consider a category S car, so when trying to sell it will always be to a smaller pool of buyers than one without a category marker.
