    You lucky thing. I have a Toyota Prius and they don't lose their value as much as other cars.

    Do you really want to sell it though - they are £15 per year to tax, you pay no congestion charge and they are very very cheap to run.

    If you are allowed to sell, then dealers might well make you and offer - but put it out locally as well - second hand ones don't come up very often apparently so it's best to look far and wide for a buyer.

    Well done on the fantastic win. If you don't want the hassle of insuring it/selling it. Ask the garage who will be supplying it how much they would give you. You could put in in auto trader in advance of delivery to ensure that you won't have it for long.
    Good luck,
