I'm getting new car in about 4 weeks (delivery date to be confirmed) and I need to sell my current car. It has a few battle wounds - a 1" chip out of one of the rear lights (taped and passes mot every year) it's 10 years old and only 109K on the clock. Sat nav doesn't read the disc (but I think it's the disc not the player as my pc can't read it either). and it has a nice collection of dings and scrapes from people driving into it in car parks and kids jumping out of mummy's SUV in car parks.
The car has had a lot of new parts (clutch, dual mass flywheel, clutch master cylinder, drive shafts, steering pump, water pump) all fitted in the last year so in theory is going to be good mechanically for a while now it certainly still pulls like a train and handles nicely
It's a jag estate and still looks good if you don't look too close parkers says £2800-2500, We buy any car with honest damage added is quoting £1700
Would you a) advertise privately as is?
b)speak to we buy any car etc?
c)spend £80 on a new tail light and £100 on cosmetic fixes to bump up the value and sell privately?
Ideally of course I would dispose of this car the day before my new one is delivered but I can manage with out a car for a week or so
