High miler - online valuation any one?

[uk_vette]

Hello,

I am trying to fine an online valuation site that takes into account high mile vehicles.

Most of the sites I have found, only let me input the miles up to 150,000

I am looking at trying to value a 2005 Land Cruiser LC3 auto, 7 seater, with 242,000 on the clock.
Reasonable to poor condition.

Any on care to give me a pointer to a website, or care to put a value on it?

Hi,

I need to put a cheap valuation on it for divorce purposes.
aka, She will want half of what it is worth.

But cant seem to find an online valuation site.
Well, the judge told me, that she could "go on line and get a valuation for it"
I told her it was "starship miles" and I found it difficult to evaluate the price.

Ideas, options please,

If any on can have a guide as to how much £ I should knock off from the valuation of a 150,000 miler, to a current 242,000 miler.
ie, how much should I knock off to compensate for the additional 92,000 miles ?

Thanks all very much,

vette

Hi,

engine size is 2998
it is the D4-d
it is Auto.
it is June 2005 on an 05 plate
it is 8 seater, but the rear seats are missing, that is, the third row.
cloth seats.
it has a few door scratches from laning.
rear plastic bumper is bent/distored, requires replacement as the plastic is torn.

Valuation for 15th February 2012

Trade Basic value £12,950.00 Mileage Adjustment -£3,300.00 Extra Options £0.00 Dealer adjustments £0.00 Adjustments subtotal -£3,300.00 Adjusted value total £9,650.00
Glasses guide adjusted for miles. It seems a bit high to me and I haven't adjusted for the damage. Average miles is 66k so nearly 4x the average, I think the book goes out the window... Not much help I'm afraid, sorry.

Hi uncinquesei,

Thanks very much for the valuation.
It used to be a highways agency car, thats why it is nearly 250,000.
It is scratched on teh doors both sides with laning and 4x4 playing.
The rear bumper is needing replacement, as i reversed into an unseen tree.
Honestly the tree was about 100 years old, amd the LC stopped instantly.
It has a snorkel fitted, so not standard.
It has 50mm suspension, so also not standard,
This reduces its value I guess.

It has a whole in teh roof, where the aerials were removed and now has a rubber bung.

I guess it's worth about £5500.
I don'[t need it to be worth much, as the other half, will want half of it's value in an ongoing divorce.

I am quite happy to produce to the judge, valuations of £3000 or whatever.
i may go to my local Toyota dealer, and to put in writing, (for a fee) the value they would give me for it if I was taking no part ex.
That should drive the valuation through the floor.

Great ideas guys,

Thats the way I will go.

I will wait until it is covered in crap of the higest order fromlaning.
I might be tempted to visit Mc D, and carefully empy one of their rubbish bins in the back, and the bery back.

OK, it will cost be a couple of quid to valet, but if I "distribute the bin carefully,,,,,,,,,you know what I mean.
Then it will look bad, but actually be quite easy to clean after the valuation.

Will they charge me for a written valuation?

Hi Efbe,

I remember now, when I last looked at the coolant, it was looking a trace milky
And then there is that knocking, tapping sort of noise from some where in the engine.
The noise from the rear diff, I have been ignoring for a long time now.
Any way, also you don't need 5 gears, I always skip 2nd, and just go 1st to 3rd, saves the grinding in the gearbox.
then the tyres are all 1,5mm, so they need replacing soon.
Did I mention there is no spare?
And I am not sure, but perhaps I seen a little blue smoke yesterday when I started up?
Oh, and the chip in the windscreen, well, nevermind that.

How much is it worth now, do I need to "find" more wrong with it?

Buy an angle grinder, cut it in half down the middle. Give her her half. Job done.

An old friend of mine, from 20 years ago did just that.
Fridge, freezer, sofas, you name it,
Mind you, he was a bit unbalanced

The st he got into in court was amazing.

I don't know the final outcome, but he did get well adn trully lectured.
