Go to glass's guide, pay a couple of quid and it will give you a very accurate guide.

It's what the dealers use.

Its tough selling anything at the moment mate, and there is lots of idiots out there , that dont want to pay for anything.
February is when the market picks up.

From all the looking i have done recently id say that one like yours would probably be up for around 9500-9995 privately

Not sure what it would actually sell for though.

My budget is now around 8k and for that you seem to get 05 plate 60k+ miles - prior to that i was looking to spend 10k for a lower mileage car and your kind of spec would be what would come up. But again thats asking price i dont know what people are selling for if at all.

Im struggling to sell my diesel civic, so much so im waiting until end of jan/fed i think before i advertise it again as hardly any interest  :sad1:

Hi,

I have the december Glass Guide and your car books at the following:

Trades at £8,475 @ 58k miles.

Retails at £9,875 @ 58k Miles ( At a dealership with warranties, service e.t.c included )

I would advise you should look to advertise for about £9,250 and sell for about £9,000.

If you adjust for mileage ( which people rarely do ) you should add £150 to the trade and retail price.

The Glass guide though is only for a standard car. Your car has good options which does not add to the value but will make it easier to sell.

Good luck with the sale and hope this helps  :happy2:
