Looking to sell my BMW...
I want to upgrade my car and am looking to use my BMW 5 series to trade in as part exchange. What would be a realistic trade in value and the value if I was to go down route of selling privately. BMW 5 Series M Sport 2012 100,000 KM excellent condition, new tyres November with full service history.
Our answer:
Hi Gary,
I’d say private value will be around the €20,000 mark, with trade in at around the €17-18,000 level.
