Will optional extras add value to a used car?
I bought a Ford Focus Titanium X in 2019. At the time I specified every extra possible, which added £5500 to the list price. The car has done 9000 miles and has just had its first service. The used price guides don’t account for options. Is that dead money or can I ask for more?

Some options will add to the car's value, so you can advertise it a price you're happy with and see what happens. The best thing is to have a look at the classifieds and see how yours compares to allow you to adjust the asking price.
