Default Best time of year to sell my WRX...?

Basically as the title states... I was wondering if this is the best time of year to finally say goodbye to my Jap 95' Classic WRX with low mileage...

Apparently some say summer time is always a good time of year to sell cars like this...

What is your opinion...

Summer might be the best option. When selling my classic, i put it up in Oct, didn't sell until June. So over xmas is a bad time.

What makes it worse, it was up for £18k, i had an offer after a week for £16k, which i turned down. So i paid for advertising for another 7.5 months, only to sell it for £15,600.

If the price is right? it should sell any time.
If your in no hurry to sell, & the car is a real minter then you can afford to price it alittle higher then other specs!
