I'm Thinking On Selling My Car.

[Jeza]

Corsa 1.4 on a 08 plate. What price can I realistically get for it. It has a full service history from the main dealer where it was bought new. So private, main dealer part ex or one of those we buy any car.com.

[shoota]

Somewhere in the £2,500 - £2,800 bracket if mileage is average and body OK.
Expect less if you trade in or use webuyanycar.com

[Jeza]

If that's all I get offered shoota I'll keep it.

[shoota]

I was basing that on prices on Autotrader, if yours is especially nice and absolutely A1 you might be able to get a touch more, but not a lot.

[shoota]

Have a go on this Jeza for a second opinion:

[Jeza]

Had a look at that shoota, checked the hand book for exact spec

[shoota]

Having looked again there is a very wide spread of prices depending on model, number of doors, auto or manual etc so the price range goes from £2,500 - £3,500 with 5 door low mileage ones getting slightly better money.
What spec is yours?

[Jeza]

Hit the wrong button there. So checked for exact spec and it's not on that site.

[Jeza]

Spec 1.4 SKI 3 door VERY low mileage and I mean low. Petrol and 3 door. Back seat never used, passenger seat rarely used.

[shoota]

Looking again then you might expect £3,500 - £3,600. If the mileage is less than 50k then possibly a touch more.

[Jeza]

How about less than 10k

[shoota]

I can't find one comparable to that Jez but if it is that low I'd ask £4,000 (or close) and see what happened.

[Jeza]

Thanks shoota you have been a great help. Off to bed now. Goodnight

[shoota]

Goodnight Jez, please don't rely on me for a decision - I'm not an expert.

[shoota]

Digging even further Jez, things like alloys, air con, reversing aids etc all bump the price up so if you have the time tap your index into this site to get a price based on average (60k) miles and then add something for your ultra low mileage.

By the way I think you have an SXi not an SKi.

Jaza, just a tip, keep well away from "Wewillripyouoff.com, they do not tell you that they charge for administraion, if the car is tidy inside / outside, put some Reflective signs in the car's windows,make sure you check everything is right with the car before the sale.
