Depends how much you need the cash for your car and how accurate you have been at valuing it. Worse thing you can do is over value yours then end up in the sh@t when you have to sell it for at lot less than you though.

There really good cars but with petrol prices increasing all the time and the extorionate road tax and the fact you cant really enjoy them that often anymore with the overcrowded roads you have to ask is the really any point in owning one ?.

How is 30 mpg (ish) expensive to run? Nothings specialist on it so i struggle to see how it's any more expensive than the average car.

I overhauled my driving style and my average is 33.3mpg over 3000 miles. They are not extortionate to run in my opinion, whatever I choose next will be worse.
