Direct answer
Argus, Eurotax and market value: what is the difference?
Argus and Eurotax are valuation references or tools. An advertised price is a seller’s asking price, while market value is a defensible range in the real selling context. A dealer offer also accounts for risk, preparation, warranty, stock time and margin. These figures answer different questions and should not be compared without context.
