Thinking about selling my MINI

The wife and I both have MINIs and we're looking at moving up to the mountains in the next few months. This would require us to sell one of the MINIs and possibly purchase something with AWD. Since she loves hers so much, I'll probably have to sell mine.

The specs are listed below, any idea what kind of price I should ask for? Or should I trade it in? The car has about 12,000 miles on it (recently serviced) and is in perfect condition (4 coats of Zaino).

$13000 sounds about right; will you take a check?

Realistically, trade-in is around $20,000 - $21,000.

Signed the papers

We're moving up to the hills next month, which means the MINI has to go now. It's been a great fun car, and I will definitely miss it!
