hmm....what to do
When i brought my Puma in the summer it was the only car that stood out for me, there were a few others but were out of my price range.
Would a garage do a straight swap for a car ie say they gave me 7K  for the puma which is very low and i picked up another car for 7K from them, or do they normally take the car in for less so they make more on the car they are selling to you ??

aernt racing pumas sought after? you would be silly to trade it in. Must be guaranteed a good private sale, especially if you put it back to standard.
you will get raped on a trade it, convinient way to get your next car but costly.

i would not sell for 7K but that is what i would get trade in, maybe less. SZome bloke of Pumapeople was given £6500 trade in from fords for his, knowing full well they can sell on for 9K+
£8500 and we might have a deal
