Default Struggling to change cars

Recently I sold my Scooby and bought a Clio 182, great little car, very quick but just too small .. I figured I'd use the Grand picasso to pick the kids up, so it would be easy fun.

£300 a year less on insurance and better on fuel.

I'm struggling now, its just too small, can't fit anything in it .. so I figure I'll swap it, or as closely as possible part ex it .. maybe for a standard WRX (ideally a wagon) or some rep mobile, but can I **** find anyone who is willing to do a good deal with me..

I bought the car for £3500 two months ago, so I'd like to see somewhere around that back, anyone suggest the best way to go about it ? I don't want to just sell, unless I have a buyer and have found a replacement as we need two cars.

Gumtree/swapz?
Even pistonheads and make it clear you want to swop

Gumtree appears to be full of weirdo's, tried Swapz get offers for some crazy crap ..

Pistonheads is £9.99, which is fine, if it works .. I just don't know that it will ..

I put mine on pistonheads, not even had any Nigerian scanners ring up, wouldn't waste your money.
