Fair trade-in value for a Toyota Auris Hybrid?

I am about to purchase a Toyota Corolla Business Edition, for delivery June/July 2023, and trading in a 2015 Auris Hybrid with 45,000 miles on the clock. They are offering me a price of £30,765 which compares very favourably with online prices and I would prefer to buy locally. They have offered me £13,100 trade in and guaranteeing this at £11,500, ‘working on £200 depreciation per month till delivery. Is the depreciation forecast realistic? Also, are there any drawbacks to having a panoramic roof?

Those figures seem realistic to us. Regarding the panoramic sunroof, the only drawbacks are a reduction in headroom (sit in the front and back before buying) plus the extra complexity that could generate bills in future and potential increased repair costs in an accident.

Very efficient hybrid hatch with surprisingly upmarket interior. Good to drive, too, while standard equipment levels are generous.
