I'm looking to trade my CRV in against a S2000. The S2000 is an X reg, with FHSH and 86k on the clock.


CRV is a 02 plate SE Sport in metallic dark blue, with half leather seats. Manual, with no sat nav and 102k under the wheels. The dealer has offered me 1300-1600 (unseen) depending on condition. I'm due to see the S on Saturday.

Anyone in the know agree with that valuation?

Thanks. I really hate selling hd buying cars. frown

It CAP's at £1,200 below and £1,425 average, so that sounds a good estimate to me.

Thanks Ferris and Woody!

Can I be cheeky and ask what the S2000 is valued at?

Glass's Trade
£3,610
Grade Hi
£3,780
Retail Asking
£6,550
Mileage 98,000 | Ave Mileage 72,000

very much depends on what it's actually like and how much history it actually has, what does 'part history' actually mean?. On some think like a jag s type r it needs to be properly maintained or be cheap.

Thank you very much.
Missed its service before i bought it by 2000 miles and 3 months, i think. It was then serviced by my dad. The only other service its had (and needed) under my ownership was done at a garage.

Would a dealer tell me to f off if i tried to part x it against a car of the same value (as the part ex price?)

IIRC they are on 10000 miles service intervals so your car should have 9 stamps 'in the book' and be due another soon.

Depends how much the dealer wants out of the car he's got and if he wants to replace it with a part history jag s type r. Only he'll know that.

Glass- Retail figure on the S2000 is £4490. If the car is mint then may be worth a bit more than that, as the one you are looking it is below average miles.

In my experience, trade-in values aren't worth the paper they're written on - it's the cost to change that matters.

On one occasion they'll give you a low trade-in but knock some off the price of the car, others they'll say they can't knock anything off but they'll give you a good trade-in value. Net result is that it still costs the same.
