How the check works
We compare your price with cars of the same model advertised for sale right now: built within a year or so of yours and, if you give kilometres, with similar kilometres on the clock. If there are enough of them we show the median, the range the middle half of them are asking, roughly how many there are, and whether your price is above or below the typical one.
What the answer means
The numbers are asking prices, which sellers set and usually negotiate down, so a car a little under the median is not necessarily a bargain and one a little over it is not necessarily dear. Trim, condition, service history and options all move a price. Use this as one input, then check the car itself.
If a model has too few similar cars for sale we say so rather than guess, and we never show individual listings. Want the bigger picture? Browse the price guides or read how our figures work.
