Ls430 Valuation

[Sammy101]

Would someone lend me a hand in working out the value for my fathers car. He has just put a deposit on a Panamera and we aren't sure what to do with this car as he didn't PX it.

I have had a look online and for some very odd reason prices range from £5k to £10k!

It's a 2004 LS430 with 98k. It's recently had a new starter motor, timing belt, spark plugs and waterpump. It also has a full service history. Also has brand new Conti tyres all round! The car is in perfect condition cosmetically and drives great.

Should I be listing at the upper tier of the market or are these cars very hard to sell privately?

Hello and welcome to the LOC.

I would suggest you check similar models on Autotrader,Gumtree and eBay to gain an idea.

Please don't turn your post into an advertisement offering the car for sale as you need to be a paid up gold member in order to do this :)

Prices do tend to vary

If you want a quick sale - then price it at £4500 and stick to that

or if you want a higher price £5500 - but be prepared to wait

From what I can see traders have it priced at around £7500. Do people really pay an extra £2000 for a trade sale rather than a private sale?

No

I wouldn't either. But some people will and if the trader is not in rush to sell they often try their luck!
