Team-BHP - The "USED" Car Price Check Thread

I looking to buy a 2015 Fiat Avventura Abarth (140 bhp) petrol.
Its a first owner vehicle run 12k km and in scratchless condition. Drove it for a short while inside the city (couldn't go beyond third gear).
Vehicle seems to be in a good shape. Owner is quoting 6.5 lakhs.
I've quoted 5.8 lakhs but the owner refuses to budge below 6.2. Is it a good deal? Or what can be the correct price? I heard that Fiat has stopped production of Abarth variants to make way for Jeep. Will spare parts be an issue?
Any known niggles?
Only thing that's putting me off is the complex tailgate mechanism. Is it possible to remove the swing arm altogether and place the spare wheel (full sized alloy) inside the boot similar to Fiat Urban Cross?

I am looking to sell our 2015 january Ciaz ZDI, 46k km covered, Black color, brand new tyres and zero dep insurance valid till January 2018. Also extended warranty valid till 2019 january!

How much can i realistically expect ? i know i will get a lower price since its a black car but second hand cars in Goa have a slightly higher selling price as compared to the metros

Regards

I'm quoting my own post.

I am getting quotes of 5.5 to 5.6 lakhs for my ciaz from Mahindra and Toyota respectively with exchange bonus of 15k max if I do exchange my ciaz for their cars. I know these are shocking quotes but I guess GST of 28 % has something to do with this.

I haven't posted an add for the public as yet but I do expect about 7.5 lakhs. Is this too optimistic price for a 2015 diesel zdi ciaz with extended warranty?

Regards

I meant 28% GST levied on cars sold by used car dealers, hence the really low quotes being given. These guys have to pay 28% GST from their margins.

Anyways I have asked some local mechanics who know what the rates for used cars are, I should expect a minimum of 7 and max of 7.5 lakhs due to the increase in New ciaz diesel prices. however I'll loose a little due to my car being black in color.:Frustrati

I'll update when the car is sold.

Hello folks, long time since I've visited or participated in the forum :-)

I'm looking to sell my silver colour Honda Civic 1.8 S-MT which I bought new in October 2009 for Rs. 13.5 lakhs all inclusive in Pune by paying full price via Cheque - no loan/hypothecation business!

It has currently done only around 30,000 KMs on the odometer. I only use it for office commute and weekend shopping etc. Never taken it outside Pune for long drives etc. It has a new Bosch battery and I am going to replace the original Michelin MXV8 tires with new Michelin 3ST tires next weekend. Also, the free airbag replacement (due to recall) I'm going to get done next weekend as well at the original dealership from where I bought it. No modifications etc except I added a small detachable JBL subwoofer in the back seat (yes, not in the boot) with a Sony amplifier under the front passenger seat.

What price can I expect for it if I sell it this year and what price would it be next year at 35,000 KMs driven? Bought this car in Pune and I am located in Pune and the car is as good as sparkling new!

Cheers,
Vishal

Won't get more than a slight premium over a civic of similar age with one lakh fifty on the clock I'm afraid. A 2009 civic is a 2009 civic.

If it's in that good a condition hang onto it a few more years, it will continue to serve you well.

It seems like No GST on sale of used cars by individuals.

What about organised players like Mahindra First choice and Maruti True value?

My guess is the industry will move to a park and sell model with transactions directly between owner and buyer, the dealer collects a facilitation fee or commission.

That should be the way to go! :thumbs up

AFAIK, it is happening now, as whoever dealer I call for used cars asks me to negotiate directly with the seller and will arrange the meet for the same.

I could not edit my OP so replying to myself, I have decided not to sell it now because it has low resale value. Just wanted to update this thread because I got a couple of PMs expressing interest, but sorry :-)

Quoting my own post. The owner isn't budging further, price may be finalised to 6 Lakh now. It seems reasonable, since he paid around 11.xx lakhs in 2015. Is it a good deal? Or am I missing anything here?
