Value of damaged 2011 Focus?

Value of 11 Focus with quite a bit of body work needed, would it be better to fix it up or just trade in as is?

Our answer:

Hi Ann,

The problem you’ve got here is that the Ford Focus is ubiquitous, so buyers do not need to take on cars that need repairs; they can just walk away and find a pristine one elsewhere quite easily. Without knowing its engine, spec and mileage, we don’t know precisely how much your Focus will be worth, but 2011 models sell for between €4,000 and €9,500. With bodywork damage, your car is going to be a lot closer to the former price than the latter.
