320D trade in

McBride · 08-11-2017, 08:33 AM

Had my F30 valued for trade in the other day whilst i was booking in for a service.

Just over 2 years into a 4 year pcp on a well specced 320D m sport - trade in at stratstone BMW 14k

I currently owe 21k on it so was expecting to be a few grand into the negative but 7k was a bit of a suprise

. Looking online cars similar to mine are selling for 18k at the dealers. I believe my GFV is around 12-14k anyway so looks like it will be VT'd.

Starting to think BMW FS may have dropped the ball on these GFVs.

Your issue will be the options, after about 30k options add 0 to the GMFV, that'll be what has you so upside down atm.

That and a low deposit will hurt you

Atop that you'll get a scumbag lowball offer as the stealer won't actually want your car right now, and when they do, they wanna flip the used cars for like 3-5k, since it could sit on the forecourt a while.
