Current trade price with that mileage is £9,910 in excellent condition.
Look at the VWUK website (used section) , Autotrader website , Pistonheads etc.
That will give you a better idea of what the trade and private sellers are then retailing at.   :happy2:

If you already know the trade price then you probably know what the mark up is then.
When you say book price you mean trade  ??
Or have you already found out what the market / retail prices are then ??

Nice car. You need to factor in the seasonal issue of selling around Christmas time. Some potential buyers have eyes on other presents.
