    Default How to access my car value based on autotrader listing w/ slightly different mileage

    say they have a toyota CE 2003, at $5995, 124K km

    then how much would a 156K km of the same car worth?

    is there an online calculator for this

    Kelly Blue Book?
    Or browse through Kijiji and look at all the ads

    Well imagine if instead of writing that letter to the editor, she just posts on a car forum for car enthusiasts. That's Kritafo.

    5995*124/156=4765

    That's how the pros do it.

    Maybe it's super collectible and the higher mileage is better.
    So, 5995*(156/124) = $7,542

    That's another way to look at it. The higher mileage one has proved it can put on higher miles. Will the 124,000km one ever be able to put on 156,000km? Who knows? It might be worth more to go with the one with proven results rather than taking a gamble on the inexperienced one.

    so I went to kelly blue book as well as vmrcanada

    but I don't want the current value. I need the value 4 yr. ago as I believe the insurance co. went low ball on me for the value of that car. So I have the reference of a few cars price back in 2017 of similar mileages, don't know about condition though. Do I just use the above 59995x124/156 or is there a better way?

    This sounds hilarious. Explain further please.
    Are you trying to dispute a claim amount from four years ago? Because I hope you're trying to dispute a claim amount from four years ago.

    I'm sure you're joking, but in my experience there is some merit to that line of thinking.

    Sounds like he's trying to get what he paid for the car 4 years ago?

    Another way, and this will prove that you could part the car out for more than you're asking price...

    Take every part off the car, take pictures and post on eBay with a starting price. Eventually you will get to your price and then box it and sell it off.
    Car will get sold as people need replacement oem parts. Then take copper wires to recyclers and they will also usually take the frame too.

    If it’s a beige Corolla it’s priceless. They should buy you a new car.

    Don't forget to strip all the insulation off of every wire so you get top dollar!
