    Sometime ago wife agreed to sell her "family heirloom" as I call it, A 1982 Citroen Dyan 6, that's sat in a garage for over 10 years now.
    She never gets around to doing anything about though, and I'm not allowed too :mad:
    Hardly any rust, some dents put there by careless garages and the engine needs the sparks plugs heating under the grill to start it. I think it needs a bit of a clean through and re-tune.
    She won't drive it now, non-existant crash protection and children to carry.
    One day we will get rid of it....

    I had a Citroen Dyan (forgot how to spell it. It was yellow and my friends called it 'the skip' because when I drove down the motorway with the top down, lorry drivers used to throw things in it!

    I would try ebay because it covers a much wider audience, list it under Classic cars and I'm sure it will find its value. Don't accept silly offers to remove it from ebay, these are usually people who know what they are worth and want to buy them cheap.
    Have a look on completed listings to see what they are selling for and don't give it away.
    Classic cars seem to be making a comeback if the price of old mini's is anything to go by.
    Good luck.

    Ebay, or (for both cars) there is a weekly paper "classic car weekly" an ad in there would be a good move - www.classic-car-weekly.co.uk

    I expect the ebay selling price of the Dyan would surprise you. Choice is essentially to get running and through an MOT, or to sell as is - either way four figures I would have thought.
