What is my car worth?

[hj2k_x]

OK, cutting to the chase.

VW Velociti 1.4i
2005 model
65000km
one owner
serviced at 15k, 30k, 45k, 60k
new front tyres
Blue

How much could I get for it?



Thanks for the input

 

[Serqet]

I reckon you could get between 55k to 60k.

 

[RazedInBlack]

45K max!

 

[hj2k_x]

Any more takers? I was thinking 50-60k myself...

 

[Shake&Bake]

45K max!

Really?

Damn that can't be right.
Those Velo's sell like hotcakes for way more, from what I recall.

Don't have access to Auto Trader from the office, but that's what I'd think anyway :erm:

According to Autotrader.. the dealers are looking for ABOUT R60k.

If the dealers are looking for that does that mean that's what I'd get trade-in?

 

[Shred]

R50k

Nah, they will offer you about 40K for trade it. Huge ripoff.

Best would be to sell it yourself.

 

[ToxicBunny]

You'd PROB get about R40k on tradein.. if you're lucky..

If you sold it privately, you could get a quick sale at between R50k - R55k...

Nope.

Dealers usually offer you R10k less than what the book value is.
The trade value.

But the R10k I make mention of is only indicative.
They go through the car with a fine tooth comb, looking for items to replace in order to give you less

That is what I thought....

Hmmm...

 

[Alan]

I'll offer the R82 I stole from PK

 

[hj2k_x]

hmmm, pass!

 

[JK8]

When mine got stolen I only lost out on R8000... after 3 years

sell it privately you can get R65 or so... put in some sound for R2.5k and sell it privately at R65k... I'm planning on selling my rhythm for R56k-R59k... it has some nice sound... on trade i was offered R40k, R45, and R52 but that was because i was buying for R150k

Yeah, it seems to make the most sense to go private...
