Not the 1st car I've sold... Only issue with this one is I really cant decide what sort of money I should be advertising it for. Theres so much difference in price in ones advertised.

Mines only 20k miles and in near perfect condition, just stonechips on splitter that bother me.

Any thoughts or good valuation sites I can try. Also not sure whether to advertise that its just had a new gearbox??

The car:

Have look on arnold clark, see what they are banging them out for.

Gearbox, say its just been changed, maybe state why it did.

In the word of mike brewer, 'this is high speed motor so its going to have a few chips'

Was considering getting the bumper painted to get rid of the chips but I know when I'm buying a second hand car if somethings too perfect it rings alarm bells to whether its been in a smash etc.

Thing is I know for a fact that there wont be a single car at Arnold Clarks that will be in as good condition a sthis so its hard to guage.

Thinking around the 9.5k mark but just not sure.

Wheres the 2k difference in price then? If I only get 8k it wont be going, would need to be at least 9k to make sense money wise.

Might end up getting a house in the nearish future so thought I might as well get rid before they dropped and I had to take a hit on it.

I paid 10,500 for this 13 months ago. Just been on uncle arnies and there selling for 10k now with higher mileage but 08 models so I'm thinking 9k as a private sale is about right.

Will give it a bash and see how it goes.
