Default Yet another "What's it worth"

I'm moving on and shook on a deal for new wheels today, but I seem to be a bit out of touch with prices. I was about to trade mine in until I went on 'webuyanycar' and got a pleasant surprise well above the trade-in valuation.

So.....

2004 (54) WRX in WR Blue with one owner (me) from new 57600miles FSH - Good to Excellent condition with a couple of marks on the bumper and front wing, but nothing serious and never been in an accident. Newly powder coated wheels (Revolution 17"). Prodrive PPP (Sports cat back) exhaust and a light Ecutek remap to around 265hp

What's it actually worth, or should I just give in and let them come for it? I'd much prefer it stayed in the enthusiast market tbh - it's never missed a beat.

Hmm, I have both keys, but the private plate applies to me too - might have to wait a week or three

I am selling mine, I took plate was off in 2 minutes with the new DVLA website, now only £80 to put on retention. The V5 was through 2 days later and the retention certificate the day after.

If the wheels aren't perfect you can take £200 off for starters, but in saying that they only knocked £400 of my offer price but ended up selling my car to a friend for what we buy any car offered.

I had it checked today and they knocked £300 off - I may just go with that as it's less hassle and clearly somewhere near value as no one has shouted at me
