What it is worth, and where those numbers come from

asking £2,995 others ask £7,745 floor £3,999

This is too far under the market to be a bargain. At this depth the corpus holds gearboxes, spares or repairs listings and wanted adverts. It may still be a genuinely mispriced car, which is why it is here at all, but check what is actually being sold before anything else.

Advertised £4,750 above the asking price 61.3%

Where these numbers come from

Even the bottom quarter of the market asks £1,004 more than this car. Nothing measured here says you would lose money on it. What is unmeasured is whether the car is what the advert says.

The floor

£3,999 bottom quarter of cars like this one three in four comparable cars at this mileage are advertised above this, out of 18 counted

The buying rule

Against Auto Trader asking prices alone at £7,745, this car is 61.3% under, and the rule is 20% or more under. It does not qualify. That figure uses one source on purpose, because it is the market this car would be resold into.
