umesh 336 Posted September 27, 2016 Valuations Sure this topic has been brought up previously and no doubt it will be raised again BMW 1 Series SE Auto 3dr- £4040 factory options 21800 miles 2013/13. White / Black leather with £4040 factory options We all use various valuation tools , so I try to check its value on Autotrade-mail £14819 Glass's guide £14200 ( Strange as when Glass's DM and checked it came back at £13530) Cap Clean £12100 ( £11500 Average ) Now before I reveal what I THINK the market value is for this car I'd love to get your opinions ( Needs 2 wheel rufurbs thats all ) . What's Trade & Retail IF you were buying this for stock. Join in - don't be shy :).. After all no one is right or wrong - just look at the difference in opinions , or is it data ?

bestprice4cash 20 Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) No idea, totally out of my league but I would guess at £15500 retail with those options and colour combo. Edited September 28, 2016 by bestprice4cash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CJ Underhill 34 Posted September 30, 2016 If glasses is saying the trade is £13,560 then i'd say the Market Retail would be sub £14,000.. lets say £13,800? I've found recently that whatever Glasses have as the "trade" price is actually near enough the Market price In which case i'd go for somewhere between CAP Ave and CAP clean, £12,000?

I've found recently that whatever Glasses have as the "trade" price is actually near enough the Market price In which case i'd go for somewhere between CAP Ave and CAP clean, £12,000? So what about Autotrade-Mail valuation as that is based using Glass's and their own data of vehicle sold , which in this case is way out ? but how can it be way out if that's what they are allegedly selling for ? or is that not enough data is available to give accurate valuations of the market for that car ? Its all baffling and allegedly I'm supposed to know as I'm in the trade .. no wonder so many customers are saying it so many times " I've seen these cars advertised and don't know why there is a difference of £3000/4000 between dealers " ! I've agreed to buy the car - it's here next week Retail as I see it to start £14999 ( Can't post what I've paid as its too much an open forum ! ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
