£3,700 - £4,200.  I would be coming in around the £3,500 and taking it from there.

How long is a piece of string.

Less than if it wasn't Cat N.

The mileage is among the highest of any similar-age i30 on the market. Only nine of 206 cars are ruled out by putting in a 90k mileage cap.

So it's about £5k-worth before the write-off history. With it? £4k max.

(The leggiest is a 136k shed for £2.5k. What's with the orange things on the grille? Google the plate, and all is revealed...)

Are you planning on keeping the car for a long time? Or prepared to take a further hit on the depreciation? You might get it for a bargain price now, but it's not a 'popular' car as it gets older and more worn out. Trying to shift it with a Cat N marker will be a tougher as it gets older and worth less. I'd say about £3-3.5k now.

A real world example of something that's been 3d printed maybe?

Yep. You'll find it hard to shift when it's time to sell. I'd offer £3.50.

Don't think you need to google the Reg to figure out what the car was - look at some of the other pictures in the Autotrader advert! Lol. No effort made at all to clean the car up. That car is absolutely knackered on outside and inside. I thought the police have their cars serviced and fixed all the time!

Or there's always the "read the text of the ad" option... "136,000 miles with full service history at 10k, 21k, 33k, 44k, 54k, 64k, 75k, 85k, 95k, 105k, 116k and 127k. One Owner - Police. £30 Road Tax. Please note this car will be sold as it is seen exactly in the pictures."
