Default Trade in value?

Could someone give me a realistic trade in value for a Fabia 1.2 12v Ambient 54 plate (2005 car) with 12,800 on the clock?

Parkers quotes £5,100 but I know there figures aren't always right.

I have only been offered £7,000 for mine as a trade in ('05 plate vRS with 67,000 miles) and parkers say mine is worth £8,800 (with the correct mileage adjustment!) so I suggest parkers are a little optimistic... for the most accurate, you want glass's guide

Depending on what trade in I can get, then maybe something a little more sporty. Probably not a Skoda as the Octy II vRS is out of my price range.

A pre-registered Colt CZT has caught my eye but so has an MX-5 1.8i. Problem with the latter is my company car allowance is dependent on having a car that can transport IT kit (albeit an undefined quantity). I'm sure I could get a couple of PC's in the boot of an MX5!

Stu that's a great link.. Cheers.

Well a SKoda dealer has offered me £5.5K and also happens to have an 04 MX5 1.8i. Decision made, MX5 ownership it is!
