the chaps 'system' will most likely be ebay, autotrader and pistonheads, its rare they look at cap or glasses guides for cars at this end of the market.
That's not always a bad thing tho.
Example.
An 2005 1.8+ with 87k book trade glasses at £435, cap ave at £540, obviously it is worth more with the kit if it had it. Dealer retail is 1735-1750, but unless you are a big garage/dealer, you tend to work under these prices by quite a margin.
An 03 plate 120+ trades at 320quid!
So the book probably wouldn't work in your favor
Just giving you the angle these guys work at, not agreeing with them.
I don't know your mileage, but assuming its average miles - say 80k or thereabouts;
Personally I would have thought an 1800 valuation is realistic for payout in this case.
mods, belts etc do not add to the value for payout, even owning and liking the ZS and my bias towards them, I still wouldn't get anywhere 2200 for a payout unless it was low miles such as 40k.
