    Use Parkers it's free.

    You could add another few hundred for low mileage, so if it's in really good nick then I recon about £1850 is a good price to get privately or PX from a dealer, although a dealer will more than likey give you £1700

    It's free and apparently uses the Glass's guide;

    Parkers iPhone app (pay for) says at 20,000 miles with sunroof extra:
    Private good cond. - £1927
    Private poor cond. - £1295

    But insurance companies, traders etc go by random prices. Parkers valued my MG ZR at £1800, I valued it at £1500 on my insurance, someone went into the back of me and wrote it off, my first offer was £2450!!

    Unfortunately it only offers the part-ex value rather than private sale

    Often when I've bought/sold cars I've started by looking in parkers to see what they suggest, then seeing how this compares with the real world in autotrader as the guides don't adjust for location etc. before I set a price in my head.

    At the start of this year when I was shopping for a car I found parkers to be very conservative on values. I struggled finding any cars for around the parkers price. This is in Essex. I eventually got a ex courtesy car for a decent price.

    If you look at cars at autoquake.com they list Parkers price and how much their cars are beneath that price. Cracking site to pick up deals, especially in their final price section.
