Glass's Price - Need help

toyotacelicagt4 · 2 Jan 2013 at 17:38

Evening all,

I'm thinking of part exchanging my Saab 93 for a 7 seater as i'm having to drive my parents around more and more often now.

Is there anywhere that I can get a Glass's valuation for my car? I know that parkers.co.uk do a valuation but I don't think garages use Parker's valuation. Or can someone from here tell me roughly what i'm looking for my car?

Its a 2006 06 Saab 93 Tid 150
Vector sport
Excellent condition
4dr Saloon, 90k miles with full Saab SH
Half leather
Metallic paint
Not sure if tax/mot make a difference to a dealer but its got tax until April and mot until end of May.

Thanks

What condition is it in? What trim level is it?

Thanks, manual or auto?

Assuming manual, £2,690.

Yep manual

Thanks PMKeates, I'm sure you had many better things to do so hopefully my gratitude goes some way to compensating for your time.

Lol sorry mate forgot to say thanks. Hopefully I'll get a better deal now that I know what sort of price I'm looking at getting for mine :-)

i found that when i sold my audi last year nobody in the trade used glasses guide anymore, they all use CAP. The CAP prices seemed to be lower than glasses.

It's a mixed bag. I would say most dealers either use both or nothing at all. Glass's market penetration isn't at 'nobody' level, I can assure you.

I get CAP at slightly lower than that but not much, literally a couple of hundred in it.....I also done it from memory yesterday so can't be 100% sure I put the right details in (it's so close I suspect PMkeates has access to CAP too, if not it's probably a good sign) which is not much use to say the least I'm afraid.
