You can follow the glass' guide but each car will fetch different money.

It depends on how you write the advert, whether service history is complete, where you live etc.

A good wad of receipts to prove what a meticulous owner you are all adds to the value, and whether you've chosen cheap as chips replacement parts like ebay brake pads and budget tyres. It depends on whether you've let everything run down to the limits before selling, so the new owner will have to stump up (pads, tyres, MOT etc)

A well written advert will definitely help.

As an example, my 2004 MG ZS 180 a year ago should have been worth around £3000. I sold it for over £6000 because of the above.

Good luck if you decide to sell. Being a diesel will help too!! At a guess I'd say start it at £3500 and drop down from there. Book figure suggests about £2700
