How difficult can it be to sell!! Well I've had it on Autotrader for 3months now with only a few calls.

Glass.co.uk Values it at £5100 (with mileage factored in) - yet all Im asking for is £3999 (ovno) am I asking too much?.

Link has all the info:

Its the one with 37009 miles
 
Let the number plate be shown, as people are not able to check hpi on it without seeing it.

Also add a few in car pictures.
 
Doesnt look too highly priced, but Fiestas are as common as muck. Hence they take longer to shift.

Maybe advertising locally and using word of mouth would sell it quicker?
 
I think the colour could put some people off and in the used market people tend to ignore the lesser models and buy something with more toys that someone else lost all the initial money on. Im not an expert but I would guess a "Finesse" is fairly low down and possibly below an LX?

However I do think your price is low and is one of the few in that price bracket for that particular mark fezza. Try making a sign for the window to maybe attract more peoples attention.
 
Might be a mistake marking it as 37,009 miles, what if it had 37,500 if i came to look at it?

But seriously its usually a mistake being that spot on with the miles, also the colour is rank and would put me off right away, price is good though.
 
Solid colour, bottom of the range, thus undesireable. Despite what it's officially worth it's hard to sell becuase of the spec - therefore people will pick other more highly specified Fiestas at only a few hundred more. Drop the price a tad.
 
Ford dealers knock base model Fiesta's out brand new from £6500, and they quite often do cheap finance and/or free insurance on top of that. You have to be realistic - its low spec, 3 years old, the colour isn't great and its not got the OMG low mileage that a lot of buyers in the sector yearn for.

Parkers put it at £3700 for a private sale in good condition, or £3080 private poor. To move it I think you'll need to pitch it around £3500.
