Just pluck a figure out of the air - the glass's figures on that site never seemed close to what any car of mine was worth either to me or to a dealer as a trade-in in my experience.

Ive been using this one http://www.networkq.co.uk/buying/value-your-car/

Cant tell you if it's an accurate reflection of the current Glass's guide though.

Looks the same site. Doesn't work for me.

Possibly a blessing, many times I have been put off by a car as the price was way over the Glass's price off the Vauxhall website.

I've seen some guide books on ebay.

It was never particularly accurate anyway. Always gave a much lower figure than the real Glass' trade in price.
This recent example (done last week) highlights the case;
[i]Glass's Consumer Valuation
Alfa Romeo 156 2.0 JTS Ti
Valuation date: 30.07.11
Year & plate: 2004/54
Mileage: 90,000
Trade in - excellent: £ 2,220
Trade in - average: £ 1,975
Trade in - below average: £ 1,695

From the Vauxhall 'Glass' link;
Part-exchange Price:
Excellent condition: £1610
Average condition: £1430
Below average condition: £1230[/i]

Yeah, I'd seen that had gone too. Damn annoying. Maybe Glass's saw sales of its valuation service tumble as word got around

if i get anything above 7k i'll be massivley suprised.

I thought they might be like beer goggles, making the Griffin-carriers attractive!

Thank you uncinquesei beer

Hmmm, the retail figure is £400 more than I paid for the car 2.5 years and 20k miles ago. Now if only I could persuade someone to buy it at that price...

Is the Glass's 'retail' price a private seller would recieve, or retail for a trader btw?

Retail is how much it will be on the forecourt.
