How much is it worth?
Someone wants to do a deal on my car but wants to part exchange a 4 speed 1996 A8 4.2 quattro sport. Green with ecru interior. It has been really well looked after with 5k spent on it in the past two years along with another gearbox from A8 Parts. It's done 206,000 miles. If I took it in part exchange I would only want to sell it on asap. How much should I offer the potential buyer? He sounds like an enthusiast so I would love for my car to go to him.
Not too interested in guide prices as I think they are fairly irrelevant when pricing these cars and I don't want to insult him with a £500 offer a la glasses guide.

Hmm thats tough, if you're not wanting to make any money from it moving it on then i suppose you can only offer him what you expect it to make and a car as old as mine with more miles is pretty worthless in todays market i would think. It's worth it's weight in scrap or parts if no one buys it. If he's not happy with the amount you offer then his only option is to sell it himself for more if he's sure he can get it and buy yours outright with cash.
I know that doesn't answer your question, but it's only worth what someone will pay for it. That doesn't help does it.

If you're going to sell the part-ex on that's fine... If you make a profit
If you can't see a profit, let the buyer sell it. From your buyers perspective you are offering him a very easy, clean transaction, and he is likely to expect to pay something for this. That's one of the reasons people part-ex at dealers, even though it can cost them thousands It's a car that's all, don't let some savvy buyer exploit your emotional attachment to it. Good luck

Thanks Guys, Neil convinced me over the phone yesterday not to go for a part exchange at the moment unless it was something I wanted personally. As the last thing i'd want is to be lumbered with something I didn't want. I've had a lot of interest. It's got 101 watchers on eBay! And it's had nearly 2,500 views. Someone is viewing tomorrow/Thurs and I've even got a guy from outside the UK wanting to fly in to take it abroad, wow.
