I normally put it into We Buy Any Car to see what the lowest is that you would get for it....

They are normally only £100 odd out....

We Buy any car are an joke, they tell you a quote online but then pretty much knock 50% off that when they review the car, for little to no reason. There's tons of posts about it on these forums.

If you want a good estimate i find that using The Car Buying Service gives a better one but would consider sticking it on Gumtree if i was you, its free to list and most people i know have sold via Gumtree said the car sold within a few days to a week.

Hope this is helpful,

Cheers,

Cheers lads thanks for all the help, I decided to keep and modify the car now so any other help on how to do this and what to do would be appriciated as well :).

Cheers

That wasn't my experience, when I sold my last car to them they knocked off £90 for stone chips which isn't exactly unfair. Other than that they declare what their fees are so you know what you're getting. They gave me £5750 for it and the most I could have got privately was £6000. Also when you think that you can go and sell the car to them when you want with a day or two notice, it's not a bad service.
