The trade-in process looks simple: drop your car, take the keys to the new one. But the valuation math behind it is deeper than most expect.
1. Brand + model + year (base price) 2. Mileage (non-linear — 100,000 km is a critical threshold) 3. Service history (authorised service +8%, no record -12%) 4. Paint + body condition (unsprayed + original: +5%) 5. Fuel + transmission type (diesel SUV premium in TRNC) 6. Colour (black/white +3%, unusual colours -5%)
The TRNC premium pre-owned market sits 8-12% below EU valuations because importation costs are higher.
Most online tools use Turkey or EU data. TRNC is a separate market — at Nicosia Motors we use the last 60 days of local sales as reference.
