Keep or let go?

Hello guys,

I need your advice. I had my Scirocco since July 2011 and loved every minute in it since, but now fancy a change, something with a little more power.

Do you recommend I sell it and buy something afterwards? If so, can you recommend where's the best place to do that? It's a fully specced Candy White as seen on my old showroom thread here. Or should I look for a swap?

Thanks for your comments in advance..

It all depends on how much money your are looking to get for it. You will always get more by selling it privately than part-ex/trading it in, but it's whether you want to go through all of the hassle involved in a private sale. Get a part-ex price on a car you are looking at buying then check out Parker's/Glasses guide to see how much it's worth private sale then weigh up whether the extra hassle is worth the extra money.

It would make sense. I'm guessing Autotrader & here are my best bets. Was thinking maybe swap with a TTS or RS. Maybe an older plate or I could pay additional cash, depending what it is. Hmm.
