Trading down to a smaller car - what can e get for our Subaru?
We have owned a Subaru Forester X 2.0 since new from 2003. It now has 106,000 miles on the clock. It has become too expensive to run and we want to trade down to a smaller car which will only be used for a daily commute of 24 miles through country lanes. What could we expect to get for the Forester if sold privately and what suitable car could we buy from the proceeds?

About £1,750. Doesn't buy much. But you might find a reasonable Toyota Yaris, which is the best small car of this sort of age.

Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
