X5 valuation for quick sale

[Goatboy]

Hi guys just wondering where you think I should be pricing my X5 for a quick sale. All comments opinions welcome as it hard to be subjective when you are trying to sell / value your own vehicle.
I was thinking of going down a further £1000 but don't know if I am underselling or being over optimistic. The add is only 3 days old so I am probably being impatient.

Thanks for the help

I got £19k for a 53 plate 4.6iS in excellent condition, good spec. This was to a trader (via pistonheads) so I may have been able to get a bit more.
For a quick sale (ie to a dealer) I'd expect £17k as a minimum. I'd list on ebay with a reserve at that level and see what happens.

I've done some research - I reckon £17k is a maximum for a quick-ish sale. Ebay reserve probably needs to be £16k to be sure to sell it (and you'll get loads of bids)

Thanks for that I will drop it by another £1000 and see what happens.

I would really recommend giving Ebay a go. As long as you do a good detailed ad with plenty of pictures it goes really well.

I'd recommend putting some pics on the advert. We all know what these cars look like but I think people like to see the particular car advertised.

Updated the add with pics and reduced price. Thanks for the ideas but I am trying to not use Ebay or autotrader yet as I can't stand the tyre kickers.

You might want to think about rotating your pictures and resubitting them. Those interior shots are hard to look at in that format..

Yes I agree, not easy to view what looks to be avery tidy and good condition interior.

Agreed they look rubbish now rotated. Thanks, Bruce
