Hi all
I would greatly appreciate any (rough) opinions on the current value of my Toledo.
It's an unmodified 2003 52 plate V5 (170) with 85k, MOT, FSH and 3 previous owners. It's in average condition for it's age and is in need of some minor work as the secondary air pump has gone and is making a bit of a noise on startup. It's something most of you guys would be able to sort in 5 mins but TBH I haven't had the time due to kids/commuting etc. and to be honest loathe the thought of paying £300-£400 to have it repaired.
It also has some door damage due to a scrape a while ago but could be put right by chips away (about £100).
I've been given a value of £1000 as a PX so am wondering if it is worth selling it privately.
Parkers give a value of betwen £1400 and £1900 which seems low so am wondering if spending the money on getting the car tip top is really worth it when I might end up only getting £1000 back anyway.
However I read a few threads down that someone paid £1000 for a V reg V5 so am wondering if Parkers is undervaluing my car ??
Any opinions would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
