Used value of GT

[grantcolborn]

I'm looking into replacing the Polo GT I have with a BMW 530d. The car has been fantastic and I have had no problems at all with it but I fancy something a bit bigger. It is a 55 plate with 20000 miles on the clock, just had its first service and I'm about to put on a new set of front tyres (Goodyear F1s) its a 5dr with the colour coded bumpers. What type of price would I realistically be looking for? The left front alloy is scuffed and there is a tiny mark on the front bumper where it looks like someone has hit it with a trolley at Tescos! Otherwise its in perfect condition. I've had a look on autotrader but they are very rare and none are available in Scotland.

I'd guess with your mileage and possibly the small knock (depeding whether you're being brutally honest about the knock where actually it's probs not that bad )

The higher £9k to around £10k

I'd say 10k looking at what I've found, parkers is quite tight with valuations - try theaa website as this uses auction prices and more up to date info - that's what i've been told and it was spot on for my car.

noticed on your for sale ad you were 2nd owner with 15miles on it. surely thats what trade plates are for?
i wouldnt have been please they needed to register it for that

I think they got a few GTs in and pre-registered them to meet their sales targets!
