Default How much do I advertise my car for?

Sadly I'm having to sell up and would appreciate some advice on how much my car is worth.

2000 model year Impreza Turbo 2000 UK (Saloon)

Silver/cloth trim

115,000 miles

Full Subaru Service history

New MAF sensor

4 X Recent Goodyear Eagle F1 Tyres

Magnex rear silencer (No other modifications - standard box included in sale)

Subaru 6 disc Stereo

Infinity rear speaker upgrade

Immaculate condition inside and out

Any suggestions?

With the greatest of respect; whats the f*cking chance? Welcome to the ball-ache that is advertising an Impreza; you will be bombarded with ridiculous part exchange offers for stupidly over-valued inferior cars.....

why is that a ridiculous offer??????????? my car is an ideal track car and i used to own a MY99 turbo and the corsa is a dam site quicker from 0-100!!!

What gives you the right to say my car is stupidly over valued and inferior???? didnt think you were meant to put comments like that down on here!

oh, a guy off here has already offered me a series mcrae as a swap so keep comments like that to yourself please!!!

Put your dick away! I havent said that your car is either over valued or inferior: but that people with such cars will try to part exchange.

With regard to the Series McRae offer; Id have his arm off!

I don't think it fair's very well for us.

Imagine what all the newbies must be thinking reading a thread like the above.

The way you are carrying on make's all of you look like Chav's.

Life's too short guy's, the forum is supposed to be a place where
people who share the same interests can get advice and get on.

Not slate each other !!!

Best bet is to go onto www.autotrader.co.uk and see what other cars
of simalar spec, age, milage etc are going for, don't forget you will be
putting your car up against there's, so anything extra will give you the
edge.

Thanks for all the entertaining comments along with the helpful suggestions. Just waiting for my private plate to come off and then I'm going to advertise. If anyone is interested, I'm happy to email some pictures.

According to whatcar used prices, taking mileage into account:

Dealer £5,615
Private £5,257
Part Ex £3,932
Trade £3,825

So about 5k it would seem, however whatcar used prices are a little on the high side I would say in general.
