Got to ask them first mate for a valuation. Strong arm them that you need them to take it or you cant go ahead with the deal and that you want £1500 for it.

They'll start as Red most likely said at £4/500 - but they will be all over you like a rash at this time of year. Before I settled on the beemer for the Mrs, I had dealers ringing me from all over the place and they changed their px valuations by over £500 blind over the phone just to secure a deal...and I include BMW main dealers in that. One I was looking at was a 12 plate 328 lux saloon up for £23K. My px valaution went from £7,500 to £8,600 in 2 days.

Another slightly more complicated option would be to find someone here who'd pay £1500 for it, but needs to sell theirs first. You then px their car in against your target car and you're all happy.
