I was given an estimate (about 3 weeks ago) by BCA of 22 -> 23.5K with a recommended reserve of 23.5K. I've entered it with a reserve of £22,750.

I've just been e-mailed the photos that BCA are using to market it. I have to say that I was dissapointed that they were taken before it was valeted. If I knew they were going to market with photos of it dirty, I'd have made sure it was pristine before I dropped it off rather than pay BCA for their "showroom condition" valet service...

However, nothing ventured, nothing gained. The worst that can happen is that it gets nowhere near the reserve and I get the car back.

We've currently got 6 vehicles (2 cars, 2 bikes, 2 camper vans) in the household, so I'm trimming down for the moment...
