Question U.K. E200 valuation needed

Will someone be kind enough to suggest a rough book valuation (U.K.) on the following car:

Model: E200-124 Auto saloon
Year of Registration: 1995 ('N')
Mileage: 55,400 miles
Condition: Excellent, standard factory specification (no modifications).
Colour (exterior): Silver over grey.
History: Two-owner vehicle.
Service History: FMBSH up to 2002 then FSH using independent Mercedes specialist.
Last M.O.T. performed by Mercedes-Benz dealer @ 52,300 miles.

I need both a trade-in value against a new Mercedes and what I should ask for in a private sale.

W124 E320 Cabriolet Sportline
W124 valuation

Have just sold my E220 that had 87,000 miles on the clock. It was a one owner car (me), and was in fantastic nck with recently refurb'd 8 hole alloys. I got £2,500 for it from a dealer in exhange for a E320 cabriolet of the same year.

It went on the forecourt for resale at £5,500, a price which reflected its condition. It was sold within the weekend. I tried to advertise it privately but was played around by plonkers who were out for fun at my expense!

For reference purposes, please specify year/registration letter and body-shape of your E220. Was it a cabriolet?

I hope that you got a good deal on the E320, otherwise I might be forgiven for thinking that your dealer owns a black horse, drinks at the 'Stand & Deliver' and goes by the name of Richard Turpin!
