Attempting to value my car

yllw.ldbttr

Usually a pretty simple task but with the used car market so volatile this is becoming a bit of a challenge.

I reckon a lot of sellers are also inflating to unrealistic asking prices on the back of media coverage.

Could anyone have a stab at a valuation for me?

2019 520D M Sport with Plus pack and upgraded styling. Black leather interior.

26k KM (bought just before covid and WFH ever since).

Full BMW service history and balance of 5 year service plan included.

Would anyone please have a stab at what might be a reasonable private sale price, or trade valuation?

Based on experience of trading in a car recently, even the dealers will just look at the going rate of cars of selling sites and make their call based on that.

€45-46k seems to be the rate

I'd have thought 45 even in private sale would be pushing it, maybe 43 more realistic and 40 or 41 trade price?

Ask 48k ,Looks way nicer than most.

Maybe offer it to one of those raffle sites for 50k, by the time they sell the tickets for it they make 80k, and someone gets a car for 20 euro

47 grand from a bmw dealer, I see some from other dealers a grand or 2 less....private sale, maybe low 40s but its going to be a hard sell

Tbh this is probably more where I was thinking.

47 is optimistic asking price even for a main dealer. They're gonna sell that for 45 so max trade in around 40-41 I'd imagine.

Not too many people buying cars privately in that price range for cash either.
