Guys and Girls, Help needed

I'm trying to sell my RB5 but the response so far has been disappointing. I've tried Exchange and Mart, Auto Trader and the local press but nothing.

Where is the best place to advertise a RB5 WRsport ??????? I need a quick sale.

Thanks

Mike

I agree.

Just very few people buying at the moment, which is bad news if you must sell.

I also have had mine in Auto Trader for 4 weeks with 1 call.

I am getting the obligatory calls from 'Cardata' and the like. Has anyone actually had any success with these guys. I tried selling a car years ago through a database type agent with no success whatsoever. But has anyone tried recently??

CarData ~ dunno much about them. I asked the question last week about them and was advised to give a wide berth.

Unfortunately they're the only people who've (repeatedly) called.

I'm after (don't laugh) a Golf PD130 TDi, but the dealer was offered my 2 brass washers and a peanut...

Looking at importing a Golf PD150 TDi, but I might have to take the dealers brass washers and a peanut if I get no takers

Definitely give Cardata a wide birth, just ask Mutant Matt about his dealings with them......not good

Well at least I'm not the only one but it is very frustrating having a car that should sell no probs just sitting there doing nothing. I have thought about going to a dealer but I'm a stubborn git and I hate people taking the pi55 which I know they'll do.

Well I'm one of the few buyers out there - or at least will be in a few weeks time

I’m looking to buy a MY99/00 around mid November time, so anyone who is thinking about selling please bear me in mind

You can either drop me an email as per profile or post it up here

Thanks in advance!
