Hi people! Wonder if you could help me out. My partner and I have separated and I am buying out his half of what the car would be worth now if we sold it. I have done a free valuation with WhatCar? online but it had no option for disrepair.
It's a Nissan Micra 1.2 SE 04 reg. It's got hardly any miles on the clock but has some bumps and bruises. We have a dented front bumper with a hole in it. The back of the car was replaced due to a drunk driver ploughing into the back of us 3 years ago. (Looks almost like a new back has just been melded on) The passenger inside door panel has broken. The electric window part has popped out and the window fails to work properly.
The WhatCar? website put the valuation at around £4500 but how much would it drop for these damages? Obviously I am going to have to repair the passenger door although I have no idea how much that will cost as when it went in for it's service last year the guy told me I would have to replace the door! The bumper I have no idea how much that would cost.
I would be so grateful of any help you guys and girls could offer. Thanks.

Hi, Take your car on speck to an Nisan dealer look at another car of the same age as yours and ask him for a part ex price this should give you some idea of what to ask.

I'd say with all the damage / faults it's worth about 3750.00.

Could very easily amount to £1000 to repair, I'd also take the valuation with pinch of salt too. Look in autotrader and the like to see what cars are being advertised at
