I'm thinking of trading in my Volvo for a Ford Mondeo

I have a 2008 Volvo SE 1.8 Flexifuel and I'm thinking of trading it in for 2012 Ford Mondeo or even an all-new Mondeo. How much should I expect? There are 107,000 miles on my current car.

Hi Bryan,

I reckon the mileage probably pushes down the potential trade-in value to under €8,000 and the fact that no-one sells bio-fuel anymore probably doesn't help. 

As for the Mondeo, there is a new one coming late in 2014, but the current model is still near the top of the class and you should be able to get some good deals on one.
