Once car's get over 100,000 miles, despite us both knowing that there's probably another 150,000 miles life in the car before any major expense, it does put off a LOT of buyers. With it being a buyers market at the moment, buyers can afford to be choosy, so if they are looking for something over 100,000 miles, it will either need to be; A) Cheap or B) Be immaculate with full history. Now I'm not doubting that the car does look nice in the pictures, however with CAP Dealer Retail at this mileage being only £1,995, to expect to get this in a private sale in the current economic climate, I think is unrealistic. I would think in the current market place, the car will make around £1,050-£1,100. The only way to truly find out what a car is worth, is to put it on a 10 day auction with a 99p start with no reserve, but I doubt very much that it would be very different to the figure I have mentioned. Do you have to sell the car 1st to fund the next one, or are you in the lucky postion that you can buy a car of the spec that you are looking for 1st and then sell yours afterwards? |

I have 2 cars, one of them has to go, but only at the money I can really afford to let it go for.

as said stick it on the bay at a low price or even 99p. I wouldnt do it until just after new year though. it will fetch at least £1500 i would say. when I was looking at ZT'S in October similar cars to yours were fetching £1500 - 1800. I watched loads for over a month and didnt see a diesel go for less than 1500, but then non went for more than 1900 at your age and spec.
ZT is nicer than a vectra all day long though as Vectras are boring |

You could always try an experiment if you want (it'll cost you £15) List your car on ebay with a 99p start starting at around 8 pm on a Thursday, on a 10 day listing and put a £2,000 reserve on it. The car will then be on for 2 weekends (giving it maximum exposure) and will finish at 8 pm on a Sunday (when most people are at home). If it makes reserve, then you've sold your car for the money you wanted for it, if it makes close to you what you want, you can always "2nd Offer" it and if it doesn't make anywhere near £2,000, you have; A) Find out what it's worth in the current market place and B) It's only cost you the listing fee's! |

I am planning on putting it up for sale some time around Feb / March time, once I've got everything done to make it a car that someone can just get in and drive without having to spend too much maintenance money on it.
