Default Selling cars?

I've always sold locally but will have to sell my Scooby soon after almost 3 years ownership .
What are the best sites people use i.e Autotrader/pistonheads?
cheers

Scooby has been a real joy to own and is used as my daily but have a baby on the way so some toys will unfortunately have to go!

I put my M3 on eBay yesterday..It's got 18 watchers and and 451 views..I had a call yesterday..
i'm thinking of putting on pistonheads...then again, when i'm searching online I check all of the main sites, so i'm not sure of the value of hitting ALL of the big ones...

I think Pistonheads or even autotrader are always a good shout. Ebay is full of messers usually.


I saw your ad earlier and if it was a few months back I would have bought it myself! If you don't get what you want for it and wish to sell a few parts separately let me know. Id love your wheels and dump valve and can give you cash and even standard parts in return. I have the standard gold enkei 17s with brand new tyres on. Just a thought.

will not be selling bits I'm afraid. These pro drive wheels add that bit extra to the look in my opinion so would not change.! Thank you for the offer though

I used to religiously use Autotrader, however have had greater success with Gumtree and eBay of late.
