Planning on trading up to a new model and considering trading it for convenience.

Black with ivory interior and stormer alloys. - all original
It has 85k miles and is good condition overall - interior and exterior (no dings or broken paintwork but a couple of very minor scuffs)
Two alloys could do with a refurb
Tyres all good and everything works
FSH - current service is 6 months overdue but is booked in
Owned for last 6 years - 2 owners before me
Mot to next Feb

AutoTrader 'good' price is £6.6k

Any views as to whether there is much more to be had selling privately?

Sounds very nice do you have any photos?

Black and Zambezi 1st Editions are very easy to fake so be prepared to prove that it really is a 1st Ed seeing as only 300 of each colour was originally sold WORLDWIDE. 2020 Pangea Green 1st Edition D240 New Defender 110 is here and loving it
2018 Melting Silver Mini Countryman PHEV - soon to be replaced
2015MY Corris Grey SDv6 HSE Dynamic, the best car I have ever owned, totally reliable only a cou0le of rattles in 3 years, now no longer in my care
Also in my garage is a 1996 TDi300 Defender 90 County HT made into a fake CSW

The log book should help you prove it is should it not?

Agreed, it says it on the log book! 2005 RRS First Edition Supercharged

You might get £8K on a good day, but it would be a long wait.

Have been offered £7k as a trade-in against a specific approved used. I'd already negotiated the price of the 'new' car as a cash buyer. As a trade-in, that seems okay.

In two minds as to whether to spend say £53k on a 65 plate HSE Dynamic now or wait for the 2018MY and do a PCP deal. 2005 RRS First Edition Supercharged
