Wondering how much my Ford Focus is worth?
Hi, Wondering how much my ford focus is worth... model - style 2008 sky blue colour 200000 km In very good condition... minor scratches but nothing major. I want to sell it privately and have no experience of it. Please help! Best wishes, orla
Our answer:
Hi Orla,
Get the scratches polished out for a start – nothing puts a potential buyer off quicker than bodywork damage, however minor. Then get it valeted inside and out so that it’s sparklingly clean. I’d say it’s most likely worth in and around the €5,500 mark, depending on its service history.
