Hey guys.

Where would I find the "book value" of a car? do anybody know of any worthwhile online resources?

thanks!
 
look at autotrader.co.za for comparitive second hand values....not quite book value...but it helps
 
I think stannic has one on there website... If I remember correctly...

Someone here will give you the info you need, which car ?
 
I usually update mine every six months - also been trying to find out :(
 
There's an official guide somewhere that they use for tax calculations too...but I don't know where to find it. I think its published by the AA.
 
BUMP

Anyone know of a site that lists trade/book value? Meads still not working...

Need to ascertain book value of a 2004 Mazda MX5 1.8L in immaculate condition with less thank 20,000km on it.
Don't suppose anyone would be willing to impart any educated guesses?:)
 
Meads will never work again, and there is no reliable free replacement.
 
As to the value... Your best bet is to search through autotrader to come up with an idea.. roughly...
 
Mutual and Federal's website have one. Have to scratch around to find ut. I used it last year.

EDIT: Oops, see u have to register now:o

Guess you'll have to go to a car dealer then, and use their white book.
They should also give u a written quotation.

Good question, but seems to be the benchmark. Now I 'spose the other question is why the fluck they don't seem to want to allow the general public to access it!:confused:
 
It was never publicly available, we just found a way of getting into the system.

TransUnion then bought mead and finally locked it down the way it was supposed to be.

Mead are/were the guys who published that white book as well.
