Replacing a Yaris with a Mondeo

I am 18 years old and have recently started driving a 2005 Yaris 1.0 Colour Collection. I bought it cheap with a few scrapes and dings and have now rectified these and am contemplating selling it on, hopefully for a higher price. What price could I expect considering it has 70,000 miles?

Also, I plan to buy a Mondeo due to the added refinement for the long motorway journeys I need to do. It will probably be around 2005 with a 2.0 litre petrol, auto gearbox and 100,000 miles based on a little research. Is there anything in particular I need to look out for?

See the entry in www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar for the Mondeo Mk III. The Yaris trades at £1,530. You can ask a bit more for a private sale.
