Fair enough fellas, it is a bit hit and miss when looking at comparisons on AT and PH etc. Some extremely low and then others very high.

Maybe my subconscious is trying to stop me selling??

What would you advise as a reasonable asking price?

you'll defo be at the top end of prices ... but real world prices, i.e. transactional prices ... not list / asking prices

24-25k i reckon, not trying to pee you off or nothing, thing is that these cars are now costing a lot to run with tax ,fuel, insurance all going up and for a 5 year old car for some that are maybe becoming new to the Marque that is a lot of money to be spending.

Just my opinion, good luck mate.

If 24-25k is what I should expect then I will not be letting her go. I don't really want to sell but was looking to free up some cash.

I will take onboard your advice though and list at a lower asking price and take it from there.

TBH £27k is what I originally thought but have seen some with more miles up for more, so thought i'd chance it.

I don't really want to sell, in fact I would hate to but if the right offer comes along, I will have to let it go.

I will take the advice onboard that I have received on here and list at £27-28k and see if any offers come in.

There does come a point thought where you have to ask yourself is it worth selling for that amount of money and £24-25k just isn't even something I would consider.

I think somewere in the middle would be a good starting point,perhaps £27500 its good spec good colour and very low mileage,the £24-25k area is average mileage and spec cars

Mate, chance it at late 27k, your spec is good but the price has fallen hugely primarily because of the cost of fuel. I'm hanging on to mine for a while because of this - the upside is that the Maserati GranTurismo prices have also dropped but still not into my bracket damnit! Best of luck and good of you to offer it to forum members, that's awesome mate - best of luck.
