Sell it out right mate. You should be able to pull 2000 out of it no problems. Accept their 500 if they knock another 1500 off the car you are trading for.  if not it might be a good idea to look elsewere, What kind of car are  you looking for?

I dont really want to get rid of it but my wife had a baby 7 weeks ago and we need need a car with four doors and a bigger boot. When we go shopping theres no room in the boot apart from the buggy. I have a ford fiesta aswell but thats only worth about ?200. We are looking for a small people carrier type thing. :-[ :'( :'( :'

I know the feeling well. I have 2 children myself. 4 and 1. 2 door cars can be a hassle with a carseat. :)

Why not go for a VW Passat or Audi avant?

There was a really rare Passat VR6 'GL' on e-bay that looked absolutely stunning. Practical as well as being a real street sleeper. :)

I like the Avants myself. I'd have one for sure. Saw one not long ago that had been dropped 40 sitting on 18x8 5 spoke wheels. Looked mean. :)
