Trade in a SEAT Ibiza for a Mii?
I have a SEAT Ibiza 1.4 petrol SE Copa five-door in silver on 61 plate with 8000 miles on the clock with all the buttons, auto lights, wipers, climate, cruise, trip computer, electric mirrors, aux in, auto dimming mirror etc
Could I reasonably expect to walk into a dealership, trade it for a second-hand Mii, and not have to fork out extra ££ in the trade?
My journeys consist of:
95% of <1 mile
4% of <50 miles
1% of <300 miles

The old VAG 1.4 16v is a lousy engine, so if the dealer will deal then go for it. Don't know why you need a car for runs of less then a mile (unless you are disabled). But for this purpose the smaller the engine the better.
