Freelander part-ex value!

(1/3) > >>

thermidorthelobster:
Not technical discussion but I thought it was interesting...

Some friends have a Freebie about 2yo, 38,000 miles, TD4.  They paid £20K or so when they bought it.

They're looking to change it for a VW Eos.  They want to part-ex it.  And they've been quoted 4 GRAND for it!

I've told them on no circumstances should they sell it for 4K unless it's to me.

I wonder how many people just take this at face value and lose thousands of pounds on their motor?

Doobreydog:
A lot depends on condition model  etc but should be looking at at least 8k trade in and 10k private....they have dropped quite a lot with FL2 coming out but I think someone is taking the p155. 8)

barmiebrumie:
4 grand :shock: , i'll take it cash here & ready,
or take it in part-ex for a D11 :lol:

John.

Thrasher:
We got 4.5k for our 2001 V6 ... told you all some months ago the Freelander market was broken and it would get worse.

Yep I'm with doobreydog on that one - 4k????? tell them to go back to the garage and ask the salesman to put on a red nose some face paint and big shoes just so they can get the full effect of the offer  :lol:

Check parkers guide for good ideas of value for any car considering year mileage etc - You'll be surprised they are usually sopt on and most garages / showrooms use the Parkers or Glass books to get a figure.

The newer style hippo's will drop a little in price due to the iminent release of the LR2 but I get the feeling (and this is just a hunch) the LR2 isn't going to be such a hot seller - nothing to do with the fact I think it's butt ugly  :lol:  If I wanted X-trail I'd have bought one lol and this new look is closer to that than anything else
