Evoque Dynamic Lux 5 Door Si4 - Firenze Red.

Based on a new car now at £46k, trade in by the dealer at £40,400 still represents 87.8% retained value. As you got a pre increase price, your retained value closer to 90%, which is still good for a 10 month old car, esp. as you take into account the far that it's a very well specked car. Like any car, it's the lower spec cars that retain their value better, so having a top of the range loosing 10% over a year is nothing to be sniffed at. but I agree at least try ebay. For £15 not much to loose....

Good point in that even the dealer trade in price is higher than the ex-VAT cost of the car. Well worth pursuing a private sale while you're waiting for the new one as worst case you can fall back on the dealer trade in.

Another thing worth trying is to offer it to some different dealers - I had one dealer offer me £2,500 more than another when I was looking around at prices before I sold privately.

Have taken advice & listed a classified add. Got to be worth the £15. Cheers.
