Looking to purchase Middle East-based XLS

Our company is looking to get a used XLS.

Anybody aware of a few places in the Middle East, where we could get a good deal on a used XLS? Approximately, what would it cost us?

Name and contact details of the concerned person would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Citation XLS

Hi Ashtonwheel,

The Citation XLS is an aircraft in high demand and holds its value well due to this. What is the reason for only looking in the Middle East?

If you Googled XLS for sale in the USA you may find the aircraft you are looking for and you will be buying the aircraft in US Dollars.

Ferrying the aircraft to the Middle East would not be too difficult.

Regards,

ExcelXLS Driver.

21 Aircraft currently available on the open market doesnīt really suggest that the type is really sought after at present!

If they wanted EASA reg why didnt they just say so. I am still waiting to see if the question as to why in the Middle East gets answered, if they were looking for EASA reg I am thinking Europe might be a good starting place . It cant be the reg can it too easy to change. Maybe they live there in the ME that is.
