Selling an old Ford Mondeo - should I fix it or not?
I want to sell my 2006 Ford Mondeo, but cannot work out if it is worth fixing. It runs really well and has 80,000 on the clock. Problems are some scratches, chips and a 'keying' mark. Would you recommend I pay out to fix these problems or does the end price for the car make it not worth it?
I am also interested in the sure sell auction option, do you think that is the route to go down?

If selling privately, don't fix. If trying to sell to the trade via sure-sell then the tidier the car, the more it will make, but you're not looking at a lot anyway. About £2000 if it's a TDCI 130 Zetec.
