What is going on with 2nd hand prices??
Just potentially sold my scoob (MY99 wagon, PPP, lots of sensible mods with 53k miles and in showroom condition (as the dealer agreed)).
I need something a bit more comfortable so I went to a Merc dealer and he offered me............£6000!!!!!!!!!
Anyone want to offer me some more? Otherwise it goes to him on Friday.
email me yorkmeister@hotmail.com
(Just put a post in the for sale section) I would take £7500 if quick!

That's poor - you would expect at least trade price which is what most dealers offer.
Damn I'm trying to sell my '97 Probe - look at this for a poor valuation

New price £18K - Good Private now 2K
Try driving round a few 2nd car dealers see what they offer - I recently sold a Focus and they all offered £4.5K (parkers trade price) but I sold it private for £5.5K

I just checked the "What's it worth" price checker on Autotrader and you could get nearer £9k (without PPP) private, £7.5k p-ex.
Then I searched the cars for sale and at between £6-10k, all the wagons were 01 bugeyes with half your mileage for £8.5-10k. So the £6k might be realistic.
I'd put it on the Trader website for a couple of days at £8k and see what interest you can get. Worth trying £15 for a potential £1.5-2k benefit.
