decided on either a Corrola 1.4VVTi, Civic 1.4 or 1.7CTDi.

Tested a Corolla today and was very impressed, silent inside the cabin and the engine was very smooth, although pretty guttless i didnt mind taking it easy as it is nice and comfy.

nice...

How much u selling the ZS for? I need a medium sized diesel!

Im not too sure tbh. the best part ex offer i have had has been 5.8k but parkers says it is worth 6.5k and there are higher milers and lower specers on autotrader for 8-10k.

I would be happy with around 6k+ so I can buy a Civic diesel striaght off i think.

Do people actually believe the prices in Parkers?

I took it as read that everyone knew price guides werent worth the paper they were printed on!

Yah, also the cars on autotrader may have high prices but are they selling?

Id go with parkers but knock ~5% off. How much did ya pay for it?

Ã,£8k <6 months ago. :?

ive sorted the most anoying noises in the car now so might hang onto it for abit more. The Corolla was way to boring, the civic would be good but there arnt many.

Damn, put it up for Ã,£7.5k.

They are never perfect but they give you a good idea of a price range.  Its allways best to look at the current market on autotrader to help make you mind up.
