How do you calculate value of a used car when the engine is replaced with a new one from the manufacturer?

I have a 2001 Ford F150 Supercab 4x4 with 125000 miles on it. I just put a new motor in it, an authorized Ford Dealer did all the work. The new motor has a 5 year warranty. The motor has 0 miles on it. Kelly Blue Book is $8000. How much more can I ask considering the NEW MOTOR selling it Private Party???|||Unless you are a dealer offering a warranty, its likely that engine does not have a transferrable warranty. Which means that once you sell it the warranty is gone ( read the fine print on your paperwork) If the blue book is 8 grand thats what it is, no one will pay you 10 grand for an 8,000 dollar car, new motor or not. I know what you are thinking, and I undestand what you are asking, but reality is reality, and finding someone whith a pocket full of cash does not always happen when you need it. sometimes you get lucky, but the best way for a quick sale is sell it less than its worth. Not more. Private party cars can be a crap shoot when trying to sell, in reality, you make your money on a used car when you BUY IT. WHICH MEANS BUY CHEAP THERE IS NO OTHER WAY.


THE new motor is a great selling point thats for sure, but check what I said about the warranty paperwork. good luck|||Most of the middle class person opting for cars.

Cars has become good medium for transportation but

big problem are being faced by metro cities in the

form traffic and pollution. Altohugh, in many cities

CNG are being used in public vehicle which has

contirbuted towards reducing pollution substatially.

Due to this auto garages are increasing day by day.
