Hi,
I've been trying to find a website that gives estimated dealer trade in values but so far I haven't managed to find any that are free. Are there any still around or are they all paid for only now?
The car is a 54 plate Ford Focus 1.8 TDCI if there are any dealers on here who could give me the rough book value smile

Thanks,

Ross

Your google fu is weak.

“We buy any car” will do it.
Parkers do a free estimate (not including options)
Or you can just look at Autotrader for similar car.

On a part ex a dealer will pay you a bit more than WBAC and a bit less than the Autotrader price.

Whatcar usually give fairly decent guides in my experience.

If you want to be even more precise then you'll prob need to cough up though!

Cheers for that, can't believe my Google skills have faded so much, I was sure I'd already looked at WhatCar rolleyes

Looks like it's worth a bit more than I thought, a pleasant suprise.

Parkers will always make you think your car is worth a fortune, WBAC will be looking to bum you so somewhere between the two is a good guide of what you would get from a private sale. The best online one (IMO) is the Vauxhall one that will give you a realistic cap PX value http://www.vauxhall.co.uk/offers-finance/value-my-...
