Value of '08 Ford Focus hatch - 1.6 Ambiente

[Fiekus]

Hi

I'm thinking of trading in the wife's '08 Focus 1.6 ambiente, near perfect condition, with about 9k on the clock. The problem is I'm not sure what the value of the car is and realise we'll lose quite a bit on it as it is hardly 2 years old. I just want to have an idea of ball-park figure before we accept just about any quote from a dealer. I may even consider selling it privately first.
Any ideas on the value would be great and very much appreciated

There you can roughly see what they go for...

are you going to trade it for another car?

Thanks very much... didn't even think of that

From the results it looks like it varies between R120k and R135k.

To answer your question, if I get a good trade in then yes I'd like to get her a new car, not sure what though.... she likes the Suzuki Swifts and they're reasonably priced considering their specs.
