time has come to sell my car. i want to be as fair as possible with pricing.
i have checked parkers, but then i checked the auto trader and the prices seem higher than parkers

i have my car advertised at 4700 without mods and 5100 with mods.
its was bought new 30th Nov 2002 and has 43k. 1.2 E 65 model

do you's think these are fair prices? the topic is in for sale (click)

I think it's a little too much I would advertise it for Â£4,500 and wouldn't take less than Â£4,200 for it. Book price is around the Â£4,000 mark with 30,000 miles but cars are always advertised for more than this as book prices don't take into account any extra's fitted to the car.

I've found in the past that mods don't add value to a car and they make it more difficult to sell unless its OEM parts so you may be best off returning it to standard and selling off the parts separately?
