I really love my car and really don't want to sell it, but money is tight and increasing insurance premiums and fuel costs are pushing me down a route i don't particularly like..

I've had the car for just over 18months and the only problem i've had with it is a front lambda sensor, which has recently been replaced.

Here are some details...

Around 80k miles
Full service history - Serviced by Subaru until i bought the car. Then car has been serviced by Adge Speed.
PPP with certificate
Tracker
MOT due 20th July, but i'll get that done
It has a few light scratches and a couple of small 'old woman with trolley' dents but nothing major.

I've had a look around Autotrader and Ebay and prices seem to vary a lot. Sooo, any ideas please?

I'm guessing that's if i was to sell it privately?

Dont bother trading it in as they will just offer you peanuts When i was selling mine i tried " we buy any car.com" and got offered ?£1100 . Sold it privately 5 days later for £2900

doubt it more like 2.5 3k ish these days if you want it gone

yeah, i tried them just out of curiosity and was offered a very similar price!

I'll have a think and may well advertise it on here to see if there's any interest. It's a heck of a lot of car for the money but they do come with other financial drains which is a real shame

If you put a good write up and some good pics up it should sell. Ive seen cars on here taking ages to sell but its all down to pricing it just right. Too expensive and it wont get a look in imo

i tend to advertise things on Ebay as classified ads and it's always worked for me. May end up going down that route again, but it'll be a tough decision as i really like the car!

I had mine advertised on ebay, gumtree, pre-loved, scoobynet, pistonheads, local forums lol. You will be gutted to see it go

i will be very gutted... I ride a bike too and have already down-graded in that department in an attempt to spend less money, but things are still tight and my girlfriend is looking at weddings and venues too!
