I'm just in the final stages of buying this car

He has offered to swop his car plus £3600 for my car

http://mobile.pistonheads.com/sales/2691119.htm which I reduced to £13000.

Does this sound reasonable?

I think his car is priced high for milage. Yours is probably bang on price. I'm no expert but I think £4000-£4500 would be more realistic as your car still isn't run in at 17k.

Thanks Chris. I've sort of agreed verbally to £3600.

Do you think it's worth asking him for more and risking him saying no to the sale?

I obviously want the most for the car but dont know what to do

If you weren't sure, you shouldn't have agreed mate I'm afraid. Take it on the chin if you really want the car.

You're right. I've phoned him today and he's going to get it serviced so at least I've got price of mind. He's a nice guy so don't mind him getting a good deal.

Make sure it's a proper service. Some people say that but as it's coming out of their pocket they either don't bother or do a half-assed job.
