I think it's up to extra options they have, car's condition and mileage. Please tell about your car the facts listed above so that everyone who has
T180 won't have so answer!
Best regards, Alex

I got quoted £9000 a couple of months ago and that was the best they would pay, my car had somthing like 27k on the clock and 07 reg... They were a BMW franchise and i was test driving a BMW 123d.

Twin turbo and chassis is addictive but shame about the space.
9k is not a bad price i guess. I reckon you would only have to put down 3/4k on an 08 Rav XTR. I love the rav loads of room and goes v.well, great economy for the space and looks pretty nice too. Never had any problems with the ones we've had too. Perfect family vehicle.

Glad to hear they are a good family vehicle OldSkool. I went to Scotland in the Auris a couple of weeks ago. By the time i'd got my bags in, my Mountain Bike and all the other gear, there was no room for the dog. She would have loved it up there, so something bigger is needed, with a bigger boot.
Thanks for the info on the trade-in price. Looking on Parkers for mine with SatNav etc they reckon on £9500 as a trade in price. Hopefully I can get a Rav of similar age and mileage for around £5k ontop

Well..... I have placed an order for a New Rav, should arrive in about 5 weeks,so I will be leaving the Auris fold.I have not changed the Auris for any other reason than size. I have found myself doing more and more miles, and with a couple of friends recently moving to Scotland (North of Aberdeen) I needed something that would get the 2 of us and the dog and mountain bikes etc etc up there. The Auris would not perform that function.It has been a great car, and still puts a smile on my face when I drive it. I will be sad to leave it behind!
For those who are interested,my Auris has 29K on the clock, Satnav,Protection pack etc. I got, albeit on a new car, £10500 for it trade-in.I also got just under 4 figures off the new Rav, I thought it was a great deal all-in. The dealer said they had a waiting list of cutomers for the T180 Auris. Seems it is a popular 2-3 year old purchase for those wanting a lot of kit at a good price.
I'll be looking to keep the Rav for a good number of years and I would havekept the Auris for a good number of years aswell, had it been a bit bigger.
