What price to pay? - mak
Hello all,

Looking to buy a second hand Astra privately but confused to the value given by various guides. The car in question is a 5 door 2005/05 SXI 1.7CDTI (100) with 45k miles.

I normally look at 3 guides for comparison but am surprised at the vast variation for a private sale with this mileage.

Parker's £5470, What Car £4875 Wisebuyer's £4580

Can anyone tell me why there is such wide discrepencies when I would have thought they would have used similar depreciation statistics. With such a variation it is difficult to negotiate on price with the seller as they would quote Parker's and I would quote Wisebuyer's. I accept that there must be regional differences, I am in Hampshire.

Any advise gratefully received.

The 1.7 CDTI engine has been made in two power outputs - 80hp and 100hp.

Also its just possible that the lower value is based on the old Astra G model, while the higher price is based on the new Astra H model.
